The official theme this weekend is Mario Paint. Now you can’t bitch that you didn’t get the memo. Ha! Attached is a rather impressive version of Halo 3′s One Final Effort (most notably heard during the scarab battle and the final warthog run). Enjoy.

W00t!
(in Carl from ATHF voice) That’s friggin awesome!!!
Damn. That guy has got some SKILLS.
And patience. Probably patience.
:P
Holy crap that’s awesome.
That is what you call passion :)
That’s some sweet skills…
That’s completely unreal, wow. Make me want to play through the dual scarab battle… nice. :)
Recon worthy
Wow, that was pretty amazing. Kicks the crap out of my amazing version of Chopsticks that I did =*(
~B.B.
Lame. I’m a Mario Paint Purist. If you change the sounds, it becomes 1200000x less impressive.
That is awesome! So is each character a different instrument?
EPIC WIN
So i think my life is complete. Mario AND Master Chief? ^

that formatted wrong, that was an arrow :(
I count two Scarabs, repeat! TWO Scarabs!!!
Awesome job.
While that is an absolutely awesome Mario Paint creation, I have to nitpick one little thing from Hawty’s description; “One Final Effort” is NOT the song played during the final Warthog run; the song at the end is another variation on the Halo theme called “Greatest Journey” that’s actually closer to the Halo theme heard during the E3 2000 demo; it has less piano and more horns than “One Final Effort”.
Bravo? Like, seriously?
Epic is a great way to describe this.
And to add to Bryan’s statement, One Final Effort is played when the Admiral’s fleet assaults the Dreadnought. Greatest Journey is the end theme but a similar theme is heard in at least one other song from the two listed. This is an accurate rendition of One Final Effort, though.
Still, I’m very much impressed by the work, especially the “Cue…” part. lol
Double Post! To correct myself, this isn’t an accurate example of One Final Effort, despite what the author said. It does sound more like Greatest Journey because of the length of it. I guess I’m not as much of a geek as I am a loser. :(
I’m trying to remember exactly what parts this piece is played in. I know there’s one other song but I can’t remember it. If I knew the name I could put the location to it…
Very impressive!
nice, really nice
Wow. That was amazing. That was a lot of work.
Love Mario Paint! Very impressive!
That’s pretty cool. I didn’t realize Mario Paint could sound so well.
This song is better than sex.
Okay, mabye not that good, but it’s really damn good!
