Half-Life hero Gordon Freeman will no longer walk alone. Via a campaign spokesperson today, Freeman announced that Minecraft Steve will be his running mate, representing the PC platform in the 2012 Video Game Presidential Election!
The pair stunned supporters by holding a completely silent victory party earlier today, forcing audiences to stand in confused silence before ultimately leaving the venue. "Freeman just stood there, staring at us, and I think he was holding a pipe, or maybe it was a crowbar?" one attendee told IGN. "Then the other guy started building some horse or something from Harry Potter? It was weird, man."
IGN sources reveal that the PC nominating committee suggested Freeman appoint Clippy the Paper Clip to write his campaign speeches, but that Freeman will not be appointing any additional staff. Freeman reportedly refuses to expand his cabinet beyond the number two despite widespread protests and desperate requests for him to add a third.
Freeman’s announcement marks the fourth complete ticket to be revealed, following Commander Shepard’s pick of Marcus Fenix for the Xbox 360 platform, Link picking Fox McCloud for the Nintendo platform and Nathan Drake picking Solid Snake to help represent PlayStation. The final candidate -- multiplatform representative Ezio Auditore da Firenze -- is expected to announce his running mate before the end of the week.
