Imagine Master Chief hanging out with Chicken Little. A Warthog drops from the sky and kills Master Chief. And Chicken Little is left with nothing to do but spend hours reviewing tape, discovering just who made the sky fall on our lovable hero/Little's fiance. Wait...was Chicken Little a girl? Was Master Chief a boy? Can we get some confirmation on this stuff before proceeding with the lame metaphor?
Thanks Jason!

LOL this is great
im not even much of a halo fan but that is officially one of the greatest videos i've ever seen.
if feels like it was completely an accident too, not something that was preplanned and carefully set up (not to say it wasn't but simply saying it doesn't strike me as such)
loony toons music should have been playing
Great! I'm still laughing...
I wonder if he got booted XD
hahaha. That is pure awesome. Completely made my day.
I should park that thing there more often...
Hahaha. Only in Halo 3 (because only Halo 3 has a giant windmill that can carry a warthog over a teammate and drop it on him).
Makes me want to put down COD:4 and rape some Halo nubs.
Unbelievable shit right there. This is what makes Halo the most fun FPS on Earth. Not the best, but the one who provides the most fun to me.
These videos always make me want to get back to Halo3 but COD4... its just.. too... awesome.
Slapchief comedy and falling cars... now that's funny.
Slow news day?
Heh @ vid.
Aside from missing out on a "ker-splat" sound effect, that was awesome.
I enjoyed the Bioshock-ish text. Made me chuckle.
But I do have days that go like that...
The tuff that the Internet is made of. Epic!
The guy who got charged with the betrayal should have said, "Wryyyyyy!" But I guess he didn't know how he did it.
@demonknightinuyasha: Some of the best memories I have from Halo 3 are these accidental moments when something totally absurd yet completely possible happen.
For example: I was playing with my roommate on Sandtrap (or whatever it's called), and a warthog comes barreling down at us, guns blazing. Without even communicating about it, though we were both being shot at by the same warthog, my roommate throws down a power drain, and I throw down a trip mine. The power drain stops the warthog. It slowly rolls down the sand dune it was on, right over my mine, and both of the inhabitants of that warthog go flying into the oblivion.
Just, a fantastically awesome, chaotic game.
I don't think anyone could do that if they tried.
Cool vid -
Fan-TASTIC. I swear, that was hilarious. Favoriting that thing right now.
**do that AGAIN if they tried
hahahaha! I almost never laugh out loud over vids like this, but that's just hilarious :D
Anything that can happen on a Halo battlefield will happen.
The save-a-film feature on Halo 3 is great, easily the best thing added in-game for a console FPS.
I have plenty of moments in COD4 that make me wish IW was on the same page as Bungie.
That is amazing. Reminds me of a time where four guys jumped in a jeep in counterstrike, drove up a ramp, fell off the side and got crushed by the same jeep by accident. Naturally, the next half hour was spent trying to replicate this incident and they COULDN'T PULL IT OFF. These things happen once in a lifetime, and are pure gold when they do.
Neat, though if I showed it to my friends they would never shut up about it. Heck, one of them is still trying to kill people online with the traffic cones.
@ErskinPig: Just a warning, I've seen people banned for the "slow news day" quips ...
And, yeah, against my will ... that made me laugh. Those videos have been some of the best parts of Halo 3. It was a brilliant inclusion.
lols, thats great!
lol! if Bungie did one thing right with Halo 3, its the forge.
I saw this yesterday, absolutely hilarious.
LOL thanks for brightening up my day ><
Just the fact that it CAN happen is awesome.
This has to be preplanned, why would they have video feeds from both parties.
That's amazing. It sparks my interest in Halo 3 again.
@BrentW: Um, Halo 3 has a theater mode, in case you missed that.
@BrentW: Brent, there's a feature called "Theater". it lets you save combat replays from your multiplayer matches. Wake up, dumbass.
@BrentW: Because both sides can save and send videos to each other.
@BrentW: You can have the camera follow any player in a Halo 3 match. The replay feature is really robust.
@BrentW:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Halo 3 automatically records everything just in case something crazy like this happens.
Heck, I seem to recall a 1 hour match among friends being recorded without us telling it to do so.
Wow, he got totally owned on that comment...
@BrentW: dude, I think you really missed something. It's all from the blue team's point of view. This was really awesome. I don't play Halo 3 anymore but this kind of thing is really great (and I suppose some of this is bound to happen when you have vehicles and stuff like huge freeging wheels and mancannon and whatnots).
LOL, congrats to BrentW who received more replies in a row than I've ever seen on Kotaku.
wow that is awesome that they have so many camera angles watching the same thing at the same "unintentional" second........
"And that, grandson, ...is the story why I left Halo 3..." (splat)
Wow, Grandpa! You actually had an Xbox 360? I thought they were just clunky, overheated consoles play loaded software from rotating optical platters. How oldskool is that!
@ShirtGuyDom: Rightly so, too.
@BrentW: They could have been friends... and the save film feature lets you see from anyone's/everyone's perspective... good to know funny things are happening while my 360 is at the service center...
:(
Yeah, the video feed lets you view all players views. It looks completely accidental. Awesome video.
Hilarious
thats just awesome haha! thumbs up
I retract my last post, I didn't know halo 3 had a Theater mode.
I'm still playin combat evolved.
Hahahahaha That was pretty good. One of those... "much funnier because it was unplanned" type of things.
@Ellipses253: My comments didn't update fast enough so I was late on the reply...
:(
@BrentW: Holy christ dude! That's some funny shit.
Meh. I didn't find it that hilarious. Might have been how the video took two freaking minutes to spoon feed us the play by play. I hope I can safely say we all saw what/how of the betrayal coming from a mile away, yet the video acts as if the ultimate reveal is a huge shock.
It's not horrible, but there was been much more impressive Halo3 kills posted -- like this classic:
[kotaku.com]
lol. This is why Halo is so fun online it has a built in lol factor for stuff like this.
@BrentW: Brent, Halo 3 can be played on an Xbox 360.
anywho, that actually made my laugh out loud, or "lol" if you will, a little bit.
I hope Bungie gives this dude that "recon" armor or whatever.
@ErskinPig: Hate to do this but we got laws in this part o town.
----
Ive tried to get many things to fall up there and each time failure occured. Man that must have been pure luck the warthog got stuck on such a perfect center or gravity that it didnt tip either way. Great stuff!
Ok, that is absolutely hilarious. I thought it was just the guy driving it off the cliff at first, but to see that the wheel was actually what dropped it just awesome.
More games need Halo 3's video capture tbh.
@BrentW: You better be joking.
That was great, though drawn-out. But the payoff ruled.
Ah that's hilarious!!! That theatre mode is pretty hot. I wish EA's Skate had that.
god bless the awesome physics engine
amazing.
