It’s Red vs Blue, But Not As You Know It!

Kotaku AU


This is getting all a bit meta. A machinima vid that is actually a real life attempt to recreate a video game, inspired by machinima. Wow. Circular. Still, all you really need to know is that this vid is a pretty accurate real life representation of a Halo match, minus the spawn traps. And it’s pretty cool.

CTF: Capture the Flag (Live Action) [Machinima]

Thanks to Nick for sending it in.

    “this vid is a pretty accurate real life representation of a Halo match”

    Minus the females, add a couple of kilos to each player, and drop the age group to about 12.

    Jokes from Red vs Blue:

    - Sticky nade stuck to side of head and running around screaming.

    - Two players using the same object as cover and alternating popping up to shoot at each other (but didn’t have the “hey” “ho” noises as they popped up).

    - “Protect me cone!”

    Did I miss any?

        The bit with the sword played out like the scene where Tex returns (and technically she is a blue) except the sword doesn’t work for her and there was no “Swish. Swoosh. Stab!” So I’m chalking that up as a general Halo reference.
