Break.com is hosting a surprisingly funny video series promoting Pandemic Studios upcoming Mercenaries 2: World in Flames.

The development team is visited for a day by Jim Holston, a real-life, foul-mouthed mercenary who has been stabbed in the neck four times and may or may not be carrying a weapon. Watch as Jim playtests the game with little success, relays his tales of triumph during lunch, and enjoys the services of the company secretary.

Kudos to Pandemic’s marketing team for this one. This is how you promote a game.

Eidos, take notes.
