Anyone ever seen Halo's Red VS Blue episodes?

There's a good amount of language in them, but they are hilarious. Seriously, my friends and I laughed and laughed. When I looked up after a few rounds of Halo, the sun was coming up. I went inside and it was 6:03. Lol..

Doc - "I'm a pacifist."
Caboose - "You're a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker - "No dude, that's a pedophile."
Church - "Umm.. I think he means a pacifier.."
Tucker - "Oh... whoa.. I was totally thinkin' 'bout somethin' else.."

Guy at EB told me about them a while back.... started collecting them.

They do have quite a bit of language, I think they'd get an "R" if it was rated, however they are a trip.

I noticed that they've got some spots on the newer XBox Kiosk disks (the ones they run in the demo stands at the stores)..... fairly impressive if M$ has gone off and decided to use them.

Yep, hilarious. Although I think they didn't finish the series online like they initially wanted to. I'm pretty sure they sold out, er, had the last few eps be a DVD only thing. Hilarious.

Yeah, that's VERY strong in the language and enuendo department. I'd be lying if I said I didn't laugh at them, but I think, as a rule, that CAA definately won't officailly endorse RvB.

Honestly I think I'd be a bit shocked if y'all did. Some of the gags are downright funny, but the series could have been done with a better setup and still been as funny, the language could have been done differently and still gotten laughts.


As for it being finished, it's still a work in progress. Season two is still releasing vids (didn't check today, don't know if there is a new one yet, but I've got up through episode 35 plus the PSAa).

I took the 1st season and burned it to a VCD to show my brother-in-law, had to leave out the PSAs and the intro/trailers vid, and it got right down to the very end of the last vid in season one...... and just stopped! I guess I over-burned the VCD and it wouldn't play the last 30 seconds or so of video. One of these days I'll have to burn him a copy of all the vids on CD.

They were amusing, but the jokes were the kind of things I could only laugh at once. They just didnt seam as funny the second time around.

I think the whole concept is what I found the most amusing.

Depend on it. God's work done in God's way will never lack God's supply. He is too wise a God to frustrate His purposes for lack of funds, and He can just as easily supply them ahead of time as afterwards, and He much prefers doing so.
- J. Hudson Taylor
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times." It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach. He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

i've watched all the RvB episodes out so far, they are hilarious, but the strong language might put people off, but they are relly cleverly done
