My Editor made a good old fashioned Halo Reach MLG edit with his and VeXx SOVIET's gameplay this weekend. It's a bit short but still looking awesome with Dakyner's dynamic angles and color correction. I'd really appreciate it, if you leave him a comment/like under his work.

Gameplay: VeXx SOVIET & Dakyner

I can only imagine how sexy MLG clips would look if they weren't all on maps that were all gray. This was still pretty cool though.

Surprised that they managed to get MLG games this weekend.  Gameplay was quite good, but I wasn't able to get into the vibe of this edit. It might have to do with the length of it, but mostly the execution of the theater work and the amount of angles. This "excessive use" of theater work is quite common in MLG edits with rock music, and sometimes this style of editing can work out well. But with this style of editing I often end up with the feeling of watching two different and separate things, when I'm watching the same play... The 180 noscope, at around the 1 minute mark, is a nice clip. But, for me, the amount of angles just takes away the  wow-effect from it. I would much rather experience him dropping his shield in first person and then pulling the noscope. 

This became more of a critique of the style of editing. The edit wasn't bad, but I wasn't able to enjoy it.
