Gears Of War 2 Shipping Container

By shipping container, I don’t mean a shipping box of the discs. I mean an actually massive shipping container like you would see on a truck, train or boat.

It seems like this came from some sort of promotion / contest and it’s not something they built themselves. Not like it matters either way though.

The “game chamber” is air conditions and includes:

8 x Samsung 42″ HD LCD TVs
8 x Xbox 360s
1 x Air conditioner
1 x Fire extinguisher
1 x Netgear server
7 x Timber crafted GOW2 Lancer guns
10 x Plastic longshot replicas
Large assortment of army ammo boxes
Black & Grey Camo sheet which can be attached to the internal roof

It’s located in Australia and I would imagine shipping to be a bitch.
