28 Weeks Later (Halo Machinima)

Check out this excellent Halo 3 Machinima. Most of them are just cheesy re-tellings with poor voice overs from gamers who have no dramatic flare. This version of 28 Weeks Later was created with Halo 3 and deserves some special recognition for its quality. This time around, the creators simply spliced actual movie audio but what is really amazing was the creativity of the cinematography. Working with limited resources, these fans were able to re-create the feel of 28 Weeks Later perfectly. Let us know if you guys have any other Machinimas you would like the recommend but we’re doubtful there are too many out there that can beat this one out.

Grand Theft Auto 4 created one of the most immersive cities ever seen in a videogame. The first DLC exclusive to the Xbox 360 was based around the biker gangs of Liberty City. Rockstar is going to depart from the grungy clubhouses and motorcycles of The Lost and the Damned and delve into the urban high class nightlife world of club owner Gay Tony. The players will play as Luis Lopez, a lowly henchmen for Tony “Gay Tony” Prince. It is expected that Niko Bellic will likely make a few cameos in this DLC as well. Sorry to all the people looking forward to some triad storylines! (Maybe it was just me…)
