I personally thought it was very funny, it's a more subtle kind of humor, which when done right can be tremendously funny. Also, I've only played about 6 minutes of Halo.

I find it disturbing to think there are people out there that believe the Halo series actually having that much affect on the world.


I agree, but if you ever wanted to make money as the head of cult... oh wait, religion! I meant religion. Just like scientology, except with Master Chief.

Though I'd like to think there was a guerrilla movement of pc gamers playing new releases of Half-life,


In a world where video games come to take such a dramatic effect on life, that's really the only place where such games would, well, come into play.
Plus it would be totally awesome.

While I'm not a big fan of Halo, (I'm a half life fan) The video was pretty damn awesome. Good job =D

Oh my God! This was amazing!
It's easy to see why this took so damn much post-production, magnificent.

This definitely has the potential to become one of your biggest hits ever.




PS: I loved the part about Corpse-Humping.

I enjoyed the whole, total dedication of all the worlds production of removable media going into the manufacturing part.... And the fact that you even gave a decline in birthrate, brilliant.

It's getting a good response on XE, i've already had 8 people PM me about the video and if any of your other videos are any good.

Betting it gets on Kotaku/Joytiq/Demonoid/other gaming blogs by the end of (your) day.

What Have You Done?!?

The entire website is starting to crawl! I'm getting uber lag, and yes, only on this site.

Your video is too awesome! (And too based on Halo which is incredibly popular) It's going to critically overload the system! LRR might... might... it might crash!

*boggles*

Good video, great video, but perhaps too good? I'm curious as to what ramification this will have for bandwidth usage, site stability, and even community integrity on the forums...

Brace for god0fgod v.2.0! And expect there be dozens just like him!

I've been checking now and thing (easy to do when my homepage is set to LRR) and the views are jumping up at an insane rate.

From 3k, to 8k to 16k views, in the space of a few little hours!

I cant wait to see how this all pans out.

Hehe, aww, imagine if this video causes a "LRRcaust" from sheer viewage.

Great video guys. I loved Ash's voice, like tak197 said, her soothing voice definitely gave the video a feel of serenity, as if this video was made as a look back on a natural disaster.

I especially loved the ending. This video is definitely a keeper. Hopefully it makes it to the top 5.

Cheers,

Daniel

Just realised what Ash's voice reminds me of, the narrator of one of the old Dune games
