Mysterious portals have appeared all over Tyria. Adventurers have returned battered and bruised, many terrified beyond belief. Those that can still speak coherently talk of awesome machines and deadly warriors never before seen, dealing death from land and air alike. Tyria's finest have come back changed, driven insane by what they have seen. With the world facing ruin... the ultimate battle has begun!

Download from FileFront - High Quality, DivX 6+ required, 65Mb.

Watch on YouTube - Low Quality

I've no idea how YouTube recompress everything but they really take a hammer to the sound quality, so if you can you're better off downloading the High Quality version (much better sound quality too) but I provided both options in case

This is something that's been in the works a little while now, made with help from my guildmates and other friends. It's been a bit of a tour de force to get it all done, but I'm quite pleased with the end result, hope you all enjoy it

Hmm GWG does seem to be the wrong place to post videos these days, hardly any responses lol ah well...

For anyone interested the games involved to varying degrees were (in no particular order):

Aliens vs Predator (Gold)
Halo
Mechwarrior 3 and 4
Battlefield 2 and 2152
Tribes 2
Unreal Tournament 2004
Guild Wars

Guest appearance by ED209 hehe

On and off it was completed over a period of 3 weeks or so with delays between segments (actual editing time I didn't keep track of but some late nights involved!) Techniques involved: motion tracking, rotoscoping, blue/green screening, changing various game files... and a lot of creative editing

Hope it helps set the bar a little higher for future vids, good luck

I liked the part with the MadCat walking through the sands of Elona the best... great editing and sound on the high quality version.

So who won?
