When Halo, Metroid, and the Matrix meet

Ó

GameTrailer's montyoum was supposed to be working on the next episode of his own animated series. But things happened and instead he ended up working on a short CG animated film that involved Samus Aran, Spartan 458, The Covenant, and Matrix-esque feats of unnatural strength. Behold, "Haloid":



Yes. This is how Smash Brothers should've been.

For more detail on the creation of this film, and several other rants from the animator, feel free to click on our read link below. It should be helpful if for some unknown reason, the embed above decides to not load or something. It also has links to the guy's other stuff. Just in case you found this one cool.

This should be featured in The L Word or something like that. Sparking crotch armor! Oh the imagery!

# Modelling program....Guest 2007-04-18 15:54
By the looks of it he used Poser and Daz3D (all I caught in the credits..) but it also said he used 3d ripper (a model ripper for games..) but he must have sculpted the samus model as Smash Bros ain't out yet...as far as know...and if it is..doubt its hacked yet...but my guess is he pirated a sculpting program like Zbrush 2.5 to do it....(makes modelling EXTRMEMLY easy)

I was thinking the same thing but it would be kind of awkward if it was that. Only logical thing i can come up with is a blast of electrical energy from the reserves of the suit.



Hmm did Microsoft specifically say that master chief is a male? I was always under the impression that he was. The Halo movie next year is gonna have master chief as a guy

# This movie oozesick-ass juices.JeimuzuWii 2007-04-18 20:32
I watched this yesterday on DeviantArt, and LOVED it. I was a little weird with the ending at first, but then I looked closer to see the "458" on the bodysuit, I'm better now, even though the "malfunction" would've been funnier if it had in fact been Master Chief himself. The ending after the credits was kinda goofy, but entertaining. Again, LOVE THIS VIDEO. The guy who animates it is just too cool.

@ tahs



Master Chief is indeed a male. In the Halo books it is shown that he is actually named John (no last name given), designated Spartan-117. 'Master Chief' is actually a ranking he earned by being the best leader out of all the Spartans.

# lol not quiteGuest 2007-04-18 21:15
I believe that was him holding a plasma grenade....



And that Spartan has the helmet number 458... According to the halo books theres 32 spartans and that included women, that one just happens to be one of the women.

Just an incredible amount of imagination in this video. Seriously, how does one come up with all that stuff - from fight and weapon choreography to dance choreography, I've gotta hand it to him. Great job!!

I saw it yesterday on Gametrailers and it was fricking awsome, yes he more than likely has too much time on his hands but still it was brilliant...



The spark was so funny, I didn't notice the the spartan number on the suit so I thought it was stange but now I know.



Thanks for mentioning that bit. :-)

# Samus vs SpartanGuest 2007-04-23 18:03
Judging from the video, it's pretty obvious that montyoum is a metroid fan. Samus knocks the crap out of the spartan. But seriously, that video is rapesauce and a half. Especially the part where Samus throws the two energy shields and 458 snipes and it ricochets off the shields and cuts down that entire mobs of Covs.
