I'm the "commanding soldier" in the beginning of the video that says m-jol-neer armor. I was like 12 at the time and I'm embarassed as hell just watching this
it took me 5 minutes to realise this wasn't halo 3 , i only noticed that the maps were different, this is an example of how great reach's graphics are.
@thezombiefromhell It's true, but most 11-13 year olds constantly insist that they're more mature then the majority. Since all people your age say that, I find it hard to believe.
@thezombiefromhell I checked out some of your videos. The reason that people probably think that you're gay is because first, you're eleven. Second, you don't even have a goddamn capture card!
I think it's a good first attempt and I like that video because we can see the beggining of jon. It's also encouraging for the people that would like to do machinimas, not like the new episodes of red vs blue with the animation thing. I would have done something more elaborated but the quality would have been sucking like that video because I don't have any equipement
Even though I think Jon is loosing his touch, I always find this old machinima entertaining, no matter how cheesy it is.
It's just fun to watch. The story itself references Batman in so many ways, especially the music, and the editing/camera work is topnotch. I always find this to be a classic in machinima, just like how Predator is a classic sci-fi movie. It may be cheesy, but we just love it.
i wish i could go on xbox live on halo 2 while people still played it, and make machinima with MY friends..... its all just me now, doing everything for everyone.....
I think we can all agree that the sound quallity could be better and the voice acting could be less cheesy, but I must say that the camera work is perhaps the best I have seen in any Digitalph33r / JohnCJG machinima.
Technically when I bashed him a year ago, I wasn't even talking about his voice acting then and there. This video was posted in 2007, so I was talking about his bad voice acting in 2007. Therefore, not in 2010. I'm surprised that comment even got fourteen thumbs up...
All u ppl this is not digital ph33rs voice it was done on xbox live and there is no theater in halo 2 and the quality of the voices was that of xbox live the voices are that of his cast on xbl
yo! PH33R i lover your vids and for on of your first its not bad AT ALL (p.s. im not an addict to cems and other crap for the ones how think it so yah and by the way im 14 with a speech impedament to sound like a small child and i would love to be in one of your vids if i and you have the time witch i probably wont but what ever i still lover your vids PEACE)
Digitalph33r said he made this a few years ago hes 21 right now so he was about 16 or 17 when he made this. He has a high voice though for a 16 year old or 17 year old
Hey, Digitlph33r, i was just wondering, Wheres the master chief in all of this? The truth and Recolilition? That ship was destroyed at the first halo (You would know that if you red the book, Halo:the flood. It crashed onto halos surface.) Not that I'm hateing you. Its a overall good machinima. (Voices could be better though. Lol!)
Digital Ph33r is not looking to be friends with anyone else. He only became friends with one persone because he was friends with him since elementary.
The story is similar to deus ex machina. I think this was brilliant especially due to halo 2's limitations in making machinima. Great story! Good to watch, lots of suspense, well edited, gripping! 5Stars!
Even if this machinima was not that perfect to watch, it still had a good storyline, imagine if someone remade this machinima with Halo 3, it'd be a hell of alot better.
I've always found that when trying a new form of film making its always best to start off with a comedy in case you fuck up and don't notice it doesn't detract from the comedy. By the way, you should continue to develop Wonderful Live. I might be alone on this one but that along with your Machinima tutorial skits and that holiday special thing are my favorite work by you. And yes, I know A&C is the most popular but I don't take as big of a liking to that and DEM as the other stuff.
It is a little cheesy....and there are stuff that just happen too fast....but you did make this years ago and it was your first attempt of a drama like one and I don't have any doubt in your works DigitalPh33r. I'm also one of those guys that admire the people that try to tell a good story even it is a little to poorly achieved. Good Job
This was definately good for a first try and it was a great idea i just think that in this your writting lacked subtlty but otherwise could have been great with a bit more depth. keep up the good work
Digitalph33r should end Deus Ex Machina on a high note. Not an anticlimax nor a cliff hanger. He should make a full length series finale movie & tie up any loose ends in past episodes.
dude he aint alowwed 2.hes been told he was copyrite or someshit.he coninues wit other series because he alrdy has the songs and crap on his hands.DEM uses new and original songs n music that he doesnt have in his hands
HE'S NOT GOING TO FINISH IT HE SAID SO HIMSELF, STOP TELLING HIM 2!! he said the storyline and the script were terrible and he got a copyright infringement find so he doesn't want 2 continue w/it. Go on his blog.
I think this should be remade, I'd like to see how it'd look updated n all
