Halo Featured in School Talent Show

Posted Sep 10, 2006 at 5:57PM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: Xbox 360 Tags: Bungie Studios, Jack Thompson, YouTube
Ó

It's always good to see gamers using their talents in very productive ways. Youtube user, captainrad, posted a video of him and his friends setting up an awesome performance during their local talent show. The unique gamer twist to this performance is that they did the Halo Theme song.

Enough words, check them out!


Given that Halo 3 is set for launch next year, we've once asked the question "What's next for Bungie?" I've got a suggestion. They better hire these kids and used them for the game's promotion campaign. It'll cast us gamers in a good light, and hopefully shut Jack Thompson up, and it'll let Bungie get closer to their fans. Win-win.

The theme song for Halo is destined to be a classic, as is the game itself.



And the electric violin added a Celtic-twist that I really liked.

This is all I have to say about this:





(1). Wow, ok. They played the Halo song (Any musician could do this.)



(2). They are probably the biggest losers in the school



(3). If you look at the video up close they have no fashion sense whatever and probably NEVER get laid, or if they do, it's by the fattest, ugliest, halo loving chicks ever to roam the earth!!!!!



(4) Halo is over-rated. Its a mediocre game that gay guys play with their gay friends so that they can high five each other and fantasize about being Master "*****" Chief!!!



(5) Not even worth a comment. These kids are trash!! They probably will grow up being comic book collectors, driving an '83 Taurus, and having sex with the ugliest chicks ever. End of Story.

# if u can do betterGuest 2006-09-11 03:02
to the person that posted # 10, if you can do better then pick your game theme or song get a band together and film so we can see it. these kids probably worked really hard on this and they did an awesome performance. You know what else I have a feeling that your describing yourself when you rant and rave about them in your post. They may be gaming nerds they may not be, but whatever they are they are not afraid to show it and thats more than I can say for you.

All of you are lame.... But I think #10 is right. Those kids have no life.

# to #10 & 13Guest 2006-09-11 03:37
I rarely post comments. But seeing how idiotic both of you are beeing, I decided to. First of # 13 is probably same person as # 10 so i will address you both the same. You need to get a life who ever you are. Seeking attention this way is pathetic, and doubt you could even do 1/100th of what those kids did. You hate your life, that we all know. But it doesnt mean you should rag on others because of it. Just like # 11 said. Your most likely describing yourself, what a sad life you must have.....

Just checked out this video. Personally, there is no way anyone can actually think this is cool. I can understand if it was a re-creation of a famous classical piece or theme of some sort, but a video game theme? You have to be a serious nerd to do that.

If you can't play in a musical band like that then you suck at life. Anyone could do that. And to be precise, I think it was dubbed.

# To all the haters...Guest 2006-09-11 11:12
Maybe it is being a little nerdy, so what? People call me a nerd, and I dont care. IMO being good at something does not make you nerdy. And also, IMO, being a "nerd" is better than what most people are... emo or "gangsta"... It took me ten minutes to type that last part. And at least they are doing something with their lives. And dont come on here posting about how someone is a nerd... your on f*ckin qj.net !!!

Yea, I think its one person bashing this video:

-You think you can do it better, then do it. To afraid. You can barely confront people ON THE INTERNET and even in that case you have to change your name so people don't think you're the same person. Get a life.

1). Did you not watch it? They did more then halo. I'd like to see you do better.



2.)And i'm guessing you are the most popular 12 year old?



3.)I guess you can't tell that one of them IS a girl. Dumbass.



4.) Man...you really are a dumbass.



5.)Not worth a comment? Dumbass, listen carefully, if it ISN'T worth a comment...then you wouldn't comment. God you are a *****ing moron! I'm guessing you just recently lost your virginity with a fat ugly chick? Right? Ok congratulations but coming on a gaming board and bragging about it doesn't make your penis any bigger.

To the guy bashing the video, they are young, talented, and put on a hell of a show for FREE. You are meerely some nerd, on a nerd website, bashing nerds. contradictory? i think so. and yes, i'm a nerd too, perhaps not your typical one but still deep down a nerd.



Why even bother you *****, its like going on a Car forum and saying "cars suck, motocycles are wayy better" when you own a pimped out car.



Why not just give in and accept that your just a big a nerd as the people in the video and all of us checking it out.



Why is being a nerd bad? i'm a professional athlete/nerd

i'm smart, i cant help it, so being an athlete classifies me as "cool", any idiot can be an athelete, but to be a nerd, you actually need to be smart enough to be one.



Nerds>athletes>movie/music stars

# HehGuest 2006-09-12 07:25
I'm sorry but I always find it a bit funny when people start bashing people like those on the video on video game forums and the comments sections of websites. If you go to a school where doing this gets you "beat up" then I'm sorry but you go to a horrible school. They took something they loved and put together an awesome performance for a talent show. Half those who would "beat these kids up" probably don't even know what they're playing.



My school's not big on Halo, but if someone played the Super Smash Bros. Melee theme they'd get a standing ovation. The Legend of Zelda or Super Mario Bros. theme (even more universal) and people would likely be humming the tune to the music!

If anyone has any real criticism, I'd like to hear it. I know it wasn't a perfect performance/transcription and believe me, I've caught most of my flaws. I'm rather impressed that so many people have enjoyed this.



Thanks, keep rockin'
