When are people going to stop fucking playing fps games on consoles? The movement of those stupid jogsticks makes me sick.
edit -
I take that back... The annoying screechy girly voices are far, FAR more nauseating than the slip-slidey consolecancer movements.


I thought the same thing but at one point she says "hold down the space bar" and you can hear mad mouse clicks on the cake; but they sure dont seem to move like they are using a mouse and KB. -_- hmm

>> ^KnivesOut:

I'm conflicted. On one hand, pure valve fan-boy awesome-sauce. On the other hand, incredibly annoying grrl gamers.
Think I'll abstain from voting altogether.


I was totally opposite. The portal stuff was a trip but the girl gamers and their wonder was the video.

>> ^Mcboinkens:

It's fan made content, and this was scripted. Makes it less cool, but I've gotta say whoever made it was pretty damn dedicated and did a good job.


why do you say this is scripted?

Freemason's easter egg?

I so wanted to surprise people for when Franco showed up, which is why I didn't mention him originally in the tags, but he was in the thumbnail so what the heck. He's tagged now.

If anyone knows how to change a thumbnail (I don't have a graphics program), I'd love one that hides the easter egg.

(Did I use the term easter egg correctly? Probably not....)

Also, James Franco.

I like the little geeky easter egg video they liked to in the video

This video always leaves me transfixed and mesmerized.

A lot of VERY talented people worked on this and cost roughly $90K to pull off. It took thirty some odd takes (with resets, that could take almost no time to a few hours depending on where the machine got to) with two edits and some manipulation (just the speed-to match with the song) This used NO CGI and they actually got the machine to work IN FULL with no resets three times.

People from MIT and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and other, just as talented people, helped to build and get this machine to run. And, specifically, to get it to run in time with the music (or roughly so--the editing slows it down and speeds it up where necessary, but they aren't LARGE edits--you won't notice them unless you look HARD). This will always be a great and unique video.

BTW, considering the people that worked on this you should keep your eyes open and on the look out for easter eggs that are included in the course and related with, usually, their day jobs. This would also be a great teaching tool to introduce kids, in a physics/science class, specifically talking about the easiest of beginning physics: Newtonian Mechanics. Maybe, get the class or better, groups in the class, to come up with their own using various objects available. Make sure you show your math!

Thriller is a great music video and is epic to watch and is great in it's own way. This video does the same. It's memorable and very re-watchable (although the music is average ).

What's up with the skull on top of the esclator?

HALO reference. Hidden skulls are littered throughout the game world - when found, they confer certain gameplay changes (basically allowing people starting a new game to tick off a bunch of checkboxes for easter-egg-type gameplay modifiactions that increase the challenge or fun).
Here's an example of a HALO 3 skull and what it does.


Ah thanks! I never got into Halo games so I never noticed those. I assume they were in the first game's demo for Windows.

Why wait? Just get the mod yourself if you own the PC port.

I would if I could, but I own a netbook now . I'm only hoping this mod really takes off, and then Rockstar notices it enough to implement some cool easter eggs/scenarios in their next release is all!

Innovation like this is exciting

You have been awarded 1 Power Point for fixing the embed code for Dead Pool video Caught on Tape: Kidnapping Attempt at Easter Egg Hunt. Thank you for helping maintain VideoSift's reliability.

This is an easter egg from the "Rush in Rio" DVD. If you've got the DVD:

Put in disc 2 of the Rush in Rio DVD
Select O Baterista. You can view the entire clip or return to the menu after it starts.
When you return to the menu, select YYZ
Upon returning to the menu, select YYZ again
After that, select O Baterista
When you return to the menu, Anthem 1975 will appear and you'll be able to watch a video of Rush playing Anthem from back in 1975.

Reason for this: O Baterista is video clip #2, and YYZ is clip #1. Viewing them in the order above, you get 2112.


There is also a hidden "Bytor and the Snow Dog" animated short:
1- Insert disc two
2- Select Boys in Brazil from main menu
3- When you get to the 26:40 mark of the film, push enter on your remote and the Bytor cartoon will begin. Enjoy.
