Virgin Media - Mobile TV ad

[TheSolaris810]

Is all digital tv service out of order today? Phohed 150, its either engaged or an automated message tells you to phone back. Great service, Virgin! At least you are consistent!

[Cezary1234567890]

0:40 Best for me momment

[1pPaArRaA]

roxmasoxproduction you idiot its an advert, why would I have 'more information' this advert was played ages ago I wanted t hear the song and got sidetracked by nerds like you, get swiftcover, or have you researched that advert too?

[DominionDemon]

As son as I discovered the name of this song, I endevoured to learn it on guitar, luckily for me it wasn't too hard :D

[1pPaArRaA]

Its not halo they just use a Halo HUD and the people look a bit like Spartans but theyre not so lets be a little more creative and stop sucking off crap like Halo, its an advert they just used the HUD to make it look like a future war/action game not to make you think: oh my god look its halo!

[roxmasoxproduction]

@1pPaArRaA

yes, but it IS halo, virgin asked bungie if they could use the games charecters and hud in the advert, now get more information before making a fool of yourself.

[LuLuDee123]

I Love This

I'm addicted to watching an ADVERT :O

[mrzennyindahouse]

what phone is that?

[ulli1235]

this was filmed in berlin. on the train it sais s-bahn berin , wich is a local train in berlin.

[iDiOtShOwBaG]

It's also featured at the end of season 4 of House when Wilson's girlfriend is dying

[DubleEmeUmaCe]

Brutal.

[tatz21]

Instead of wasting money of adverts they should spend the money on customer services training. Worst mobile phone provider I have had the displeasure of dealing with. Never again, as soon as my contract is up I'm gone.

[legomanic342]

The last bit of the advert reminded me of two things. The first was starship troopers when they land on klendethu, and Halo 3 ODST.

[mafiamortal]

@legomanic342 Maybe because they used a Halo HUD on the bottom of the screen.

[JJmacd]

fkin great advert. as good as the rollercoaster in new york one or the monkey on the drums

[Plemediffi]

hey i knew the song was from somewhere ---

[mrsrollanother]

oh i just love this song im so glad someone else liked it and put it up, i really wanted to know the name of the song ..thank heavens for youtube

[stiffler125]

[Gypsyrose1971]

[MajorLeaugeGamingFTW]

[xxxYugooxxx]

[Sephrina23]

[TheTechnoRat]

Song is Into Dust by Mazzy Star. Thanks to the iPhone Shazam app!

[BubblePuff15]

I love the song on this vid, it's like so peaceful <3

[Wigganator]

love this advert. one of my favourites.

[benpeppy]

*Nerd Comment*

Pause at 0:48 and the health bar is exactly the same as Halo 1's as well as the frag grenade counter. Pretty damn expensive advert...

[rowdyyoudy]

yeah I just saw the advert and I had to google it to see if it was the same :P

[elatesword4xboxlive]

i just saw this on the TV and thought why is halo with virgin, why did they copy it ?

[lilley3145]

Expensive for Halo.... You don't think virgin media paid to have that in their advert......... Ubisoft/Microsoft would have paid them a ton of money!!

[benpeppy]

Hehe, just to clarify when I said expensive advert I just meant generally, not because of the health bar :P

[Willythorne]

Loved it.Thanks to the person who posted the name and artist of the song.I will have to see if I can find it to buy now?

[Richie1272]

Brilliant song, does anyone know which OC it is featured in when Marissa od's ????

[spoonfedandlapsitup]

love this!

[szbb]

I love this, I have just seen it for the first time about 10 minutes ago and I was on a mission to find the song. It is "Into Dust by Mazzy Star, its beautiful.

[richlinkin]

I thought it was! Last time I heard it was when Melissa OD'd in the OC....

[BubblePuff15]

Thank you so much for telling me what it was :)

[BRADD500]

[snoopass12]

[dermo92]

[Willythorne]

Thankyou

[seedeedoubleu]

Looked like those soldiers were from Marathon instead of Halo.

[15106]

shot in berlin?

[iSakSz]

lol i been waiting to see this ad again for at least 6 months

[wifwat]

I love this advert soo much

[Meimi132]

Its like the super pretty coffee advert and the lovely ITV advert. So disappointing when you find out what they're advertising. Such poignant music used in all these kind of ads. They have bigger ideas than the thing they're made to market.

[ETFANDLPRULEFTW]

i love this song and advert

the guy is so cute xxxxxx

[Issyall100]

The song's great, but who the hell directed it????

[Bludgerooney]

@Issyall100 The director is a guy called Sam Brown. He's done a load of music videos as well, like The Pretender for the Foo Fighters. He's a fantastic director and dop!

[bulletfrank]

wow that was a good ad

[dianne2121]

Song : Mazzy Star - Into Dust :D

[JumpingIntoRivers]

thank you much loves :)

[OllieIam]

whats  the songs name?

[cardothe8]

Methinks Virgin didn't pay Bungie for the IP = O

Ha! Halo Hud...

[BlueDingo5]

haha, combat evolved HUD!

well, the shield and health at least :P

[Sebas3440]

Oh, that's TOTALLY not the Halo: CE HUD. xD

Oh, somebody should make a Halo Custom Edition HUD like that. :D

[PanAndScanBuddy]

Those look like ODSTs, and the HUD is very Halo:CE, so I'm gonna say it's probably Rock Anthem For Saving The World or some such.

Excellent choice my friend.

[pringlex]

Virgin Mobile: Cellulars Evolved

[spartanlh]

Halo CE!

[MasterRC]

0:48 ... Halo: Combat Evolved HUD. LMAO.

[kelly4686]

I love this advert, it's so cleverly made. i love it

[1965CAPTKIRK]

Piss poor service provider, with liars in call centres, 2 bean tins with a bit of string would be better.

[thatwassolastweek1]

just goes to show the cultural impact of halo. really cannot deny it the halo series may be the biggest ever.

[thatwassolastweek1]

edit: i'll say shooter because people will star shouting Mario, sonic, or Wii games at me

[bristolmetalheads]

Who is that woman? giggidy!

[plindex]

I love this ad. God I'm such a consumer.

[Hellraiser121]

Halo Spartans

[supahroland]

No, Halo ODSTs

[so154jg]
