This Spartan Life

This Spartan Life

This Spartan Life is a machinima talk-show that takes place inside a multiplayer Halo 2 game, using Xbox Live like Red Versus Blue, but better. The music is provided by an in-game DJ who spins 8bit Collective tunes made with a Game Boy. They have the Solid Gold Elite Dancers and the interviews are actually pretty thoughtful and stimulating, especially the segment with Bob Stein. Also clever is that they leave the game open so random players on Xbox Live jump into the game not knowing that it’s an interview, and they start killing the guests and host.

    Ahhhh, the Solid Gold Dancers. I have many fond memories of pleasuring myself to them.

    One question, what is machinima?

    It’s a CG film that you make using a game engine like Halo. It usually doesn’t require more than a copy of the game and recording/editing tools.
