Reach.

Okay, so, I'm sure most of you guys don't give a rat's rear about video games, especially Halo, but I just wanted you to see this.
It's gorgeous. It's violent. It's sad. It's perfect.
It's Halo Reach.

This is the second live action Halo trailer I've fallen in love with. The first was ODST.
WHO THE HECK ARE THESE PEOPLE?

I mean, seriously, can we make a live action trailer for Skyrim? It would be so epic.*

Anyway, I think it would be incredible to be an actor for live action video game trailers. Especially if they were all this cool.

All Hail Bungie.

*Addendum, 10/26. There is a live action trailer for Skyrim. Check it out in this post.

Headaches.

They won't go away.

I would wager that most of you have never experienced a quite lovely phenomenon known as 'VR Sickness' or virtual reality sickness. It is pretty much identical to motion sickness when it comes to symptoms, but it is crazy uncomfortable.

I wouldn't necessarily call myself a 'gamer' but I will admit that I play a pretty fair share of video games. I steer very clear of MMO's (massive multiplayer online) because I know straight up that I would get addicted and never stop.

Anyway, the point is, I know what VR sickness is like. The worst game in the world for me is BioShock. Oh my gosh, that game destroys my brain. Five minutes in and I'm running out of the room trying to keep my insides on my insides. Needless to say, I never bought BioShock.

Right now, I have VR sickness. Really bad. But I haven't even looked at a video game in days. Seriously. But my head is killing me, I feel dizzy, my hands are shaking, and I'm scared to yawn. I'm more than slightly worried. When I close my eyes, the world starts to spin.

The thing is, this has been pretty common lately, and that has me really worried.

The headaches are the worst... and they won't go away.
