Anyway, to not derail this thread anymore, I always thought this one was pretty cool The way it is choreographed was really cool, don't think I'd choose the same music, but it works out well The "X character plays Halo 3" were also pretty funny

Tell me were these meant to be legitimately funny or ironically funny because of the quality (or rather lack thereof)? Because they fail either way. That was legitimately painful to watch.
And you all bitch about the jokes 343's ads.
it's a parody of shitty handheld camera machinimas, not scripted or anything. We were just bored and decided to make something dumb.
There is a difference between being a parody of a shitty handheld camera machinima and just plain being a shitty handheld camera machinima. This falls into the latter category.
.
How will we ever come back from this incredible breakdown and analysis :^)
You want a breakdown and analysis, Ok, it's shit because it's unfocused and unfunny. You try to make fun of the req system and do a parody of poorly made machinimas at the same time and fail at both, partly because neither of those topics compliment each other for any jokes, and then it doesn't even manage to be absurd enough to be funny just for that.
It's supposed to be a parody of bad machinimas yet all it accomplishes is being a bad machinima because there is no self awareness about it. It does not acknowledge the apparently intentional flaws or make fun of poorly made machinima's aspects like the shaky cam or bad audio, it just copies it.
And then it fails on the aspect of legitimately criticizing or deconstructing the flaws the Req System because 99% of it is nothing muffled unfunny dialogue followed by someone saying "Buy Req packs" as if saying that somehow constitutes as a joke. However, I will give you credit for one thing though, the closest thing you came to a good joke was when they killed Locke for pre-ordering his armor.
Ok right, to start - the humour is supposed to be within the production value, the dialogue and general plot line is more of a complement and not supposed to be the main source of comedy. We could have easily scripted something out, but we decided to wing it and make it awkward like so many bad machinimas fell into. Hell, even some machinimas that are scripted sound awkward The story was being made as we went along, because we weren't trying to create a high brow criticism of the REQ system, the only reason why we even decided to have the Halo 5 video themed after REQ packs was because REQ's are mentioned in the Halo 4 video (which was completely unscripted, Fedorekd said that once he starts crouching that is when he'll stop recording and then the guy playing Chief went up and said "buy REQ packs now"). It does not acknowledge the apparently intentional flaws or make fun of poorly made machinima's aspects like the shaky cam or bad audio, it just copies it. Which is the point, really. The intention was supposed to make a bad machinima, to show how stupid they were. I can some what see what you mean, but these were also made in 5 minutes each because we were bored - it's not like much thought went into its production. We didn't need to over exaggerate elements of a shitty machinima either in order to create a parody, I think everyone with half a brain cell can understand that it wasn't a serious production. "Buy Req packs" as if saying that somehow constitutes as a joke Probably because it wasn't supposed to be. It was a pitch.

Thanks for this at least, and I'll give a detailed response when I get home.

Now that it's gone I want Warzone Firefight back, I did kinda start to enjoy it a bit more in the last few days but it's much more fun than current Warzone options to me and it was a good way to burn off Spartan Kill gambits with no effort

Pizza camouflage ODSTs
As they drop down from orbit you faintly hear the word "pizzzaaaaa" until it gets louder and louder and finally crash lands
I want this to happen for the sheer meme potential.

Thought it might be cool to have a thread about this.
Are there any characters you gravitate towards using? I use Link with master sword a lot buy have wanted to kick that habit, so I've tried Volga and Lana out a bit and really enjoy them.
I know for sure that I like TwilI Midna, I'm just waiting to unlock her on the 3DS version, she'll probably be my main unless Volga/Lana change my mind.

Story and lore for you all
(And a daily reminder that Spyglass did nothing wrong)
Thanks, been meaning to get into Titanfall lore for a while, just wasn't sure where to start.
Interesting stuff.
There's alot more than that too.
YOU can get a peek at small snippets of lore from the grunts' dialouge.
Very cool, my interest in Titanfall 2 has certainly increased.

IT'S LIKE POETRY Spoiler Seriously though, Hit is awesome and I imagine that Hit throwing the fight was out of respect for Goku.
It wouldn't surprise me if he becomes a reoccurring character much like Piccolo and Vegeta.

I was about to photoshop this image to include a copy of Hyrule Warriors, just to be fair, but then I remembered that was ported to 3DS, and greatly improved with character switching/owl statues/all dlc included
They literally made the Wii-U version redundant with the 3DS' increased content tbh fam.
It's actually terrible because Hyrule Warriors is the only game I would recommend from Wii U, and ever since I got Legends the other week, that has become so much harder to do.

I don't like Xenoblade X that much tbh, the gameplay feels like somewhat of an improvement over the original but everything else is just painfully average or flat out bad
