That was awesome. No music in that one, but it still was found via the commercial music thread.

Found this via Brea Grant’s blog. It’s a good song, and the rest of the album is pretty good. You can get the album, Re-arrange Us
(PS. Don’t forget to watch Brea Grant on Heroes in a few weeks, and check out other books and music she likes over at Coolspotters. And, no, I’ve got no connection to her, business or otherwise. Just a fan since I saw her on Friday Night Lights.)

Having had the misfortune of playing against some of these uber-gamers out there, I can say that it takes a LOT of skill and the same type of practice, talent, and dedication to play these things as any other sport out there. Is it the same as “real sports?” I can’t really say, because in these things you’re constrained by different things and not necessarily human endurance or physical ability. Reaction time, coordination, and strategy are common elements to professional athletics, however, and these kids have that in droves.

The graphics on Gears of War look pretty amazing already, but these two trailers for Halo 3 are incredible, if they’re what the graphics from the game engine will look like. The lighting is impressive. We’re not that far away from video games looking like Hollywood features. The sound is already there (5.1+ surround). The video is so close now. Check out these two clips. Even with the horrible Flash video encoding that YouTube uses, these look good:
That was the trailer. Here is the TV spot I found:
1080p, solid lighting and sound… just a few more polygons to smooth out and chisel out human features and we’re there. The metal uniform on the Halo characters looks amazing already.
