When I saw that cutscene and you just start to drop, imagine that jerky feeling you get on rollercoasters and those freefall rides. Now imagine that from SPACE.

I was terrified.

Great Vid

Also: the had a point about the pods. That was alot of tech in that pod to just waste everytime they drop in. unless they had a UNSC: ODST recycling service.

Why does everyone think this is funny? I will watch this every now and then in hopes that they MIGHT come up with some funny material. And that every now and then I watch it is met with disappointment- I end up wanting to watch the cutscene without the two douchebags trying desperately to make witty comments about what is happening in it. Hell- even ENN is starting to get toward the lame end of the lineup they have on this site. I think these guys either need to pick up their game in a big way or just go back to running loadingreadyrun. Aparrently that was somewhat entertaining.

Another good one. My favourite bits:
"it's a very confusing meeting"
"the 'oh shit, we're going to die' button"
Keep it up guys!

it was well done, considering the material why wouldn't it be. =D

ya to be honest that cutsceen in odst was pretty subpar when I first saw it and it hasn't improved much, you think they could have done more with such a great cast of voice actors.

It's just a pity that Adam Baldwin has turned out to be such a right-ring nutbag.

There's a right way and a wrong way to provide criticisms here at the Escapist, son. Yours is the wrong way.

A lot of people enjoy Unskippable, which is why it's continuing to run - myself included, and I'm a hard man to please. Throwing about deconstructive criticisms and calling the creators 'douchebags' isn't exactly what's needed here. We're not YouTube, after all.

... yeahhh, I'ma go now ... before I embarrass myself ... even further ... [small]if that's even possible[/small] ...

Wow, that was some of the most jerky character animation I've ever seen in a video game. Is the rest of the Halo series that bad?
No, actually. I don't know why, but the characters of ODST (and their designs) are a lot more cartoonish than the trilogy.

Mind you, I've never seen an episode of Firefly in my life. So I couldn't really say whether it was intentional or not.

Flashbacks to Quake 2? Surely flashbacks to Starship Troopers!

......... WHAT?

The military rank is Private, abbreviated to Pte. Privet is a plant used for hedges.

It's ridiculous not redicolous.

I would have to agree here, I was told to watch this by a buddy because it was 'the most hilarious one yet'.

I didn't even smile once through the whole vid. I have never once laughed at this show.

It's too obvious. The lines are well written and would be funny in the right hands, but the contrived, clenched throat 'funny' voices just make it sound lame and amateur. Oh well.
