Friday's Bungie Blog Roundup
There's another hour's worth of content in the Bungie Blog - lessee here...
- imwatchingyou submitted a video called 'Usually Unusual' - gameplay we all experience, but which is fun to watch. Available in HD.
- Mythic Map Impressions at Ready Up Live - try not to crush 'em like yesterday
- Resix and Kingjudge created 'Average Joes A Halo 3 Montage' - more fun-to-watch gameplay from (not-so) Average Joes.
- Affirno posted some campaign footage on everyone's favorite Halo 3 level... whereby he gets splattered by a living being. Ouch! (Skip the first minute.)
- Spartacus280 released a Halo 3 machinima called 'Retrospect' - it's not long, but it's very nicely done. Definitely worth a look!
I think that covers it for now... (Louis Wu 18:45:17 UTC)

Fake mockumentaries can be fun
Ibeechu let us know about a Halo 3 machinima he'd contributed to last year, but forgotten about - I went into this one with trepidation, but it was pretty fun to watch! Check it out. (Louis Wu 10:13:30 UTC)

Containment Protocol
AoD deadite let us know about Containment Protocol, a Halo 3 machinima which looks at a supply pickup gone bad. Never trust those Monitors... (Louis Wu 10:02:51 UTC)

They went boom, mommy...
Chris101b pointed out a YouTube vid he posted last spring, showing off a glitch you can trigger in Forge that might have potential for Machinima makers who want to have a bunch of people die spontaneously. (You could probably do this by having them quit out of the game... but this glitch also gives you a funky explosion to go with the deaths.) Weird! (Louis Wu 20:03:27 UTC)

Teammates of Genius: Mr. Shotgun Camper
Bungie.net highlighted 'Teammates of Genius: Mr. Shotgun Camper', a machinima parodying Budweiser's Men of Genius series. I think we've all met this guy... (Louis Wu 16:46:01 UTC)

Desert Oasis Ep 1
Fushiko came by to talk about a new machinima he's released that illustrates Bible proverbs with Halo 3 action. That's definitely different... (Louis Wu 22:46:44 UTC)

Mario Vs Spartan 2
GeneticSpartan stopped in with word of Mario Vs Spartan 2, a pretty amazing piece of machinima. Go watch as Mario and his friends take on a Spartan army... effects are fantastic! 9:15 long... and worth it. (Hawty McBloggy had nice things to say about it, too.)

MicroMachinima Episode 1: The Entertainer
AnTi PRO sent word of a new machinima series entitled 'MicroMachinima' - short skits for your enjoyment, while they're working on larger projects. Episode 1: The Entertainer is online now. It's... odd. (Well-done... but odd.) Go watch it!

Halo 3 Capture the Flag Challenge
Hawty McBloggy pointed out a pretty cool challenge hosted by Machinima.com - play a game of CTF via a series of interactive videos, win a shot at a free copy of Halo Wars! Check out Hawty's post for all the details. (Louis Wu 16:51:55 UTC)

Wednesday Movies
Goodies via the Bungie Blog:
- 'First Contact' is a Halo machinima with some great graphics and a taut story. The date work could use a little help, but mostly, this is top-notch. View/download at Machinima.com.
- Halo Final Fantasy: It's not the first time someone's made an RPG in the Halo engine (check these posts - 1 | 2 | 3 - for an older series using Halo 2), but this one's pretty well-done, and fun to watch. Check it out in High Quality at YouTube.
Again, thanks to urk for the links! (Louis Wu 19:12:40 UTC)

Inside Halo Episode 30
Machinima's Adam Kovic let us know that the last episode of Inside Halo (the 30th) is now online... and as a final 'we love you' to the fans, they're giving you the option of watching the episode hosted by either sodaGoD or The Dead Pixel. Inside Halo is morphing to Inside Gaming... and sodaGoD is taking his leave. So go watch, while it's still Inside Halo! (Louis Wu 20:54:20 UTC)

Untitled, by IamDank
naveeda stopped in to talk about IamDank's latest creation - it's a wonderfully-edited montage... with a 3 and a half minute intro. The intro isn't just credits, though - it's a cool collection of machinima shorts that work nicely to introduce the montage itself. A great way to spend a Sunday morning! (If you've got a Vimeo account, you can download the 720p version of this - definitely worth it.) (Louis Wu 11:55:56 UTC)

Machinima group looking for stories
Juesoni let us know that BIohazard Productions is holding a machinima story contest - the prize is that your story will be turned into a machinima, and (if you've got a decent mic) you'll be able to act in it. More details are on their site. (Louis Wu 14:12:10 UTC)

Spartan vs. Spartan
urk stopped in over the weekend (careful, urk, it'll become part of your job description if you keep doing that) to post word of a stop-motion Halo machinima. It's not what you might think - it's not action figures, filmed in stop-motion... it's Halo 3 action, filmed in stop-motion. Watch it to see what the advantage is. Good stuff! (Louis Wu 17:10:53 UTC)

Sovereign Teaser
ODST Sarge stopped in with word of a teaser for Sovereign, a new machinima series. Aspect ratio on the YouTube vid is a bit off, and there's not much going on... but the storyline is laid out in the forum post and the teaser, so go see what you think. (Louis Wu 16:58:08 UTC)

David: Resolution - live broadcast today
Juesoni stopped by to say that the next episode of 'David' (his Halo 3 machinima') would be broadcast live today at 12 PST (8GMT/UTC, 3 EST) - just three hours from when this post is being written. Swing by his forum post for full details. (Louis Wu 16:55:40 UTC)

Project Sonic - A Halo 3 Trick Jumping Machinima
Hawty McBloggy pointed out a really cool Halo 3 machinima called 'Project Sonic' - it's a Halo 3 trick jumping vid, with some very slick editing. (Watch this one in HD, if you can.) A couple of the jumps dropped my jaw - I gotta wonder if there was some funky Forge stuff going on. Either way, though, that's not really the point of the vid - it's hugely entertaining, as is. Go watch! (Louis Wu 15:09:59 UTC)

Halo - Helljumpers
2900d4u and his brother, 2900d4u2, recreated Neil Blomkamp's 'Landfall' series... as a Halo 3 machinima. There's something surreal watching a Halo 3 machinima-based remake of a live-action movie based on the Halo 3 video game... but man, they pulled it off well. Awesome piece - all the more so because it's just two of them!

iPhront opens its doors
oriol003 stopped in to announce the launch of iPhront, a community machinima site. The Halo content (so far) is a bunch of high-quality stuff culled from recent announcements - I'd assume that as time went on, they'll start to see new stuff there. Check it out!

David
Juesoni stopped in with a link to David, a new machinima series he's starting. A bit strange, but it works. Apparently, the next one will be shown live, today. In fact, it's set to go down in about 2 hours. Read the post for more details. (Louis Wu 17:43:04 UTC)

The Aegis Fate - A Machinima Series
Bryan Newman asked us to take a look at his Halo 3 machinima series, 'The Aegis Fate'. Episode 1 is out now, and there's also a trailer which might give you a better idea of where it's going. There are a few problems with this... but in general, it's a nice piece of machinima, and has potential for the next episodes! Take a look.

RageGummy Helps Scratch Your Watching Itch
The Bungie Blog has a pair of fan-written reviews of some recent machinima - swing by if you're looking for stuff to watch. The first is yet another version of the Discovery Channel's 'I Love the Whole World' vid (some great choices of clips!), and the second is an interesting little zombie short, created by adding voiceovers to a Matchmaking game from the Living Dead playlist (shot from intriguing angles). Good stuff - and good reviews!

Halo 3 Everything you Know is Wrong
Over at the Bungie Blog, urk highlighted a video which I found to be hilarious and well-made - Pattythedog615 created 'Halo 3 Everything you Know is Wrong', a video that uses Halo 3, Garry's Mod (a Half-Life 2 mod), and a Weird Al song to show you that nearly anything is possible in Halo machinima. Go watch!
