Ex-Pandemic members get all "Office Space" on an innocent printer

We really do feel for the Pandemic Studios team members who lost their jobs last week thanks to EA's latest cost cutting move. It's not right that the studio that has made so many great games is basically no more. But geeze....what did that copier ever do to you?

Yeah, yeah . . . we know that the YouTube movie that we can see above this post is supposed to be a "homage" to Office Space, complete with the same gangsta rap music (which by the way is definitely NSFW). But the copier doesn't seem to be the thing to attack in this case. How about a nice EA logo bashing? Or maybe some other object directly linked to the studio shut down? Beating a copier to death just seems so . . . cliche. However the movie is still funny and we guess that, in the end, that's what matters.
