Bulletstorm is full of snarky asides about giant dicks and whatnot, but apparently its snark extends to self-referential, non-genital-related piss taking - in this case at the expense of the 360's notorious propensity for hardware failure, and the three red lights that went with it. A video posted yesterday by Team Lag shows just that:

The Easter egg was found in the 360 version of the game - we wonder if other versions contain different jokes, or if Microsoft gets a razzing all around? It may be one of the first, but it almost definitely won't be the last Bulletstorm Easter egg to be discovered, so keep your eyes out while they're not focused on Skill Shots.

This is also a great excuse to embed Palette-Swap Ninja'sThree Red Lights, featuring former GR editor, now Activision community man, Dan Amrich! Enjoy:
