Okay, now don't get too excited, because I have some good and bad news...

but before I get to that, go ahead and start downloading before you read on

Good news: this will probably the real final that i make, and thus, you get to see all 19 minutes of it.

Bad news: there is no intro, there are no credits. there is no dramatic ending, only about a third of the entire video is edited. the rest are dumped with a song. I think it's pretty obvious which parts I have tried editing and I think those will be the most enjoyable. note* Many of the clips that aren't synced, will be sped up to skip the boring parts; i do not consider this in any shape/form real editing. Also the video technically ends at the fourth song, but I included a bonus of extra random shots/clips.

My music choices will bring about some commotion; many will ask "wtf were you thinking" others will praise me for my uniqueness; but that's all part of the critique, so i'll leave it to the community.

Overall, I'm truly sorry that I'm releasing something that is unfinished, but with the current state of competitive halo, there really is no choice. Plus the fact that I have been busy with school and such makes it hard for me to get everything done just right.

To me, Halo has been such a great game and I don't regret the time I've spent playing it. Is this the Finale to halo? No, not at all. In fact, I doubt I'll ever stop playing this game from time to time. However, to me, it is the finale to the competitive aspect of it whcih is what made Halo so great. The excessive cheating has gone out of hand; many will say one particular person killed competitive Halo, but in reality it's the hacking that has this game done for good. Then again, without these cheaters, we as a team would have never gotten as far as we have today, but that's a whole different story...

Bungie made such a unique video game in Halo 1; why they choose not to add more to it is beyond me. While Gearbox did not make the perfect port, for a small team, they definitely gave us something enjoyable to play. Maps such as Dangercanyon, Icefields, and Timberland are brilliant; I only wish they didn't leave the PC community behind.

I have so much more to say, but I'll leave it at that... hope you all enjoy the video.

P.S. Special thanks to all of Klan NoonE, Team Insight, and of course the Halo PC community.

Dling now. Who finally convinced you to post this vid Bam? I can't wait to watch it, I heard you have some ridiculous clips o_o!! I will edit this post when I am done watching.

Edit: I want to start off by saying that I was honored to be able to play along your side for the short time that you rang/joined i!. You are by far one of the most intelligent halo players that I have ever played with during my career. The video itself was ridiculous. Your style of pistoling seems so perfect to me. I would have to say that my favorite clip was the bloodgulch against =Ds_. Although a lot of people are going to be dissapointed with your music choices, I myself enjoyed listening to the uniqueness of them.

On a lower note, I do wish that you would of spent more time on this vid as you did on your first final. However, I understand the circumstances you were under and why that was not able to happen. I'm glad that you finally came to your sences and released this vid and I will have it saved on my computer for a long time.

I wish you the best of luck in your future and hope that you have a sucessful life. Hopefully you will continue to stop by insight vent every once in a while to say hi.

p.s: Although a lot of people will not agree with me, I do believe that you will go down as one of the best if not THE best halo pc player's ever.

ok, f..k. awesome video. rarely do these captivate my attention for more than 5 minutes, but i stayed interested the whole way through. i will say that the music choice wasn't to my taste at all (the only evanescence song that i think would've worked in a halo video was used by white in shazim's final, and you HAD to top it off with some linkin park ).

i really didn't mind the lack of editing at all. especially with footage this precious, you want as little distraction as possible. you could have easily landed a good editor for this, but i enjoyed it nonetheless. i will definitely watch this at least 10 more times over the course of a few weeks. i will say that i was expecting the last song to be the best, but like you said there wasn't a dramatic ending and that's fine. probably the best clipdump ever... and though i only played with you like once when i was in insight, you were always a great halo player and a celebrity (i worshiped you for a good while after you posted your first finale in TWL forums).

ACH lol XD

awesome video...the lack of editing is what i actually liked the most, i could just watch the video and see the clips without random effects spinning flashing bouncing or whatever.


and of course, good lead =O
