04.18.2007 BEST FAN VIDEO I'VE EVER SEEN: HALOID FIGHT

This fan video puts the 2D staged Ryu vs Scorpion battle to shame. Montyoum's video starts off as a simple Matrix styled fight between Master Chief and countless covenant enemies, with sketchy 3D animations and iffy textures that had me thinking I was going to be disappointed. Before long though, Montyoum rips out all of the rules and unleashes impressive action scenes you've always wanted to play out on Xbox Live. Master Chief throws an entire Warthog into the air and catapults himself behind the vehicle using it as a massive shield, followed by fending off dozens of plasma swords using his sniper rifle to deflect the blows.

There was a point in the video where I thought it was all over and I was pretty damn satisfied, but the video was only half way done and a big surprise was about to come. The fighting further escalates when Metroid's Samus Aran randomly rolls into the battle, and all of a sudden you've got shots ricocheting off of plasma shields in tandem. The Matrix styled action then takes a Star Wars twist and picks up pace. Who will win? Samus Aran or Master Chief? I won't ruin the surprises, just sit back and enjoy. Montyoum's already answered most of his watchers' questions here(scroll down), and you can check out his other kickass work from the past here and here. Montyoum plans on releasing several more of his fan projects in the future and I'll definitely be posting them all.

What would a awesome fight scene be without lesbian innuendo and gratuitous dancing at the end?

Jesus Christ, it was awesome until Samus and Master Chief started making googly eyes at each other. Then it just made me want to puch the damn screen.

Way to alienate/insult nearly every female gamer on this earth.

*sigh* Just when I was about to jump out of my seat and holler at the top of my lungs "THAT WAS THE MOST AWESOME THING IN THE HISTORY OF TIME!!" . . . the end comes. The lesbian innuendo was completely out of place (and stomach-turning in its offensiveness - and I'm a guy!),and the dance scene at the end seemed like more of a massive middle finger to fans than anything else. btw, thanks for making it Nicole instead of Master Chief (which is what I assume you did, anyway). Ho-hum. Pointless twist.

Animation was great, layout was great, choreography was fantastic, the end was terrible. 6.5 out of ten.

right, the master chief, after 2 games (and another coming up) of kicking covenant ass, turns out to be an asian lesbian. then, this badass motherf*cker takes a break to choreograph and perform a whore-dance to justin-timberlake-esque beats - with her partner and hundred of sworn enemies in tow. bulllllshit. JonathanWK, meet real girls.

halo kicks ass but i think that u overrate samus, first of all i dont remember her energy chain stretching 5 miles long, second, i never remember her having a gigantic beam that could destroy a pelican in one shot, third, mastercheif is in no way a chick, if u read the books u would know that and that he is a kick ass cyborg kickin covenant ass while samus always gets into trouble and has to refind all her abilities over and over and over again, also, i think u put in too much matrix stuff, i mean the jumping behind the warthog was okay but the mastercheif holding samus while she ran on the covenant faces is just retarded, i liked the sheild sniper combo nice thinking, and yes the armor is a bomb and master cheif is in no way underrated except by the creator of this movie because mastercheif would own samus... in short halo rox and samus sux cox.

Shut up you vapid cunt. Why do you have to be such a nitpicking bitch. Christ, it's not like it was a personal attack or some sexist tirade in the video.
