<title>W+K, EA Unveil &#8216;Duty Calls&#8217; Parody</title>

<p>Wieden + Kennedy gives it another go in promoting the first-person shooter gaming genre with its effort for EA&#8217;s <em>Bulletstorm</em>, which allows gamers to perform “Skill Shots” or crazy combos rather than killing your average mutant, alien, etc. In turn, the participants can earn the user more points.</p>
<p>The spot above, dubbed &#8220;Duty Calls,&#8221; basically rips on <em>Call of Duty</em> for being just another cliched shooter game, proclaims that <em>Bulletstorm </em>goes against the grain and continues W+K&#8217;s foray into parody. If you recall, the agency last took a shot at <em>Halo </em>in early January with &#8220;<a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/agencyspy/ea-bulletstorm-parodies-believe-with-hot-dogs-vomit_b12602">Last Call.</a>&#8221;</p>
<p>So if you feel like taking a five-minute stroll on the interwebs, check out W+K and Other Ocean Studios&#8217; effort, which heckles some of the genre’s most worn-out conventions.</p>
