This is the Christmas Truce of 1914 in WW1... the German recruits began singing Silent Night, and the fresh British expeditionary force began as well.... It was a beautiful moment, one that sparked the bromance of Anglo-German people....
They played soccer, but you know who won... The germans
Sadly the christmas truce of 1914 never happend again in the later years of ww1. The guy who made this is brilliant inspiring man, it was even better for me because i am very interested about ww1. Well done man.
There was a ww1 story where it was either chirstmas or new years and the two sides started a ceasefire to celebrate with a soccer game in no mans land. Then the next day, they continued on with the job of taking each others life.
@LucasWitt15 Yeah well THEY AREN'T AMERICANS!!!! Americans came in half way into the war and didn't fight at the battle of somme! Why is it that most people forget the sacrifices british made in the past. I watched band of brothers and the Pacific and they are great. It's just that everything about WW1 and 2 just show the american side of it. >:(
This is what machinama at it's heart really can be, a new form of media, like movies and pictures. Within what is provided, you can transform it to something amazing. I'd love to see machinama taken a little more seriously like this video, there just isn't enough (not that a lil comedy hurts), keep it up!
A beautiful tribute, RIP for the comrades of WW1.

Plz tell me how to get in forge with ur own armor color and how to get that snowing thing?? (and yeas i am kinda stupid and sorry for bad english :DD)
@BigBoy2511 What the hell do you mean? You can edit your armor color without having to go into forge and you can exit "monitor mode" while using forge to use your spartan/elite avatar
As for the snow, that was an effect edited over the video clip. It's not from Reach
@Xbox360Veteran97 The power of greed over throws the human mind. So as long as greed is in the world, the fighting will never stop, so the fighting cannot stop. So many people are unwise in the world but its what we live in. Might as well deal with it and pray to God that we don't get involved.
@G33K1001 no im not wrong in 1914 thats when the arch duke got assassinated so it wouldent nessesarily be started at 1914 it satred around 1914-1916 so uh LEARN YOUR HISTORY dumb ass
I closed so many vids from machinima, and it came down to MvsC Akuma reveal trailer and the Silent Night machinima. After finishing the trailer I was expecting perhaps another fight scene, with unending combat that might've just made me tired watching it. I haven't gotten such a nice surprise in a long time. I put this on favourites :).
Liked everything except the boring camera angles. that and there was no real action scene to show how they ceased fire. all the did was walk around and hear explosions in the distance. but good idea anyway.
My God they had some advanced armour in 1914 France. Jokes aside a very good small short dedicated to the men who gave their lives for a cause they believed in and to those who survived through it but also suffered through it, in what was such an unnecessary war.
This has to be one of the best best machinimas ever! There is true silence, which sets it apart from others, but it also brings so much hope and truth! Whoever made this definitely could see what is worth so much!
@AutomaticRed dude there are several video games more violent, in fact, i wouldnt even say halo is so violent it deserves an M rating...okay maybe the first one, but the other ones are, i'd say, tame enough for a T rating
