2D vs 3D in an Epic Mario Vs. Spartan Battle

First he paired them up in a brief encounter that spanned only 45 seconds. Then he forced them into a confrontation in a simple yet entertaining downloadable game. Now GeneticSpartan has decided that Mario and a random Spartan need to face off once again in a 2D vs. 3D battle of biblical proportions. The video runs nine minutes but don’t let the longer than average length intimidate you. By the time you find the end credits rolling down your screen, you will be on your knees begging for more. In fact, this Mario/Spartan mashup machinima is so mind-blowingly amazing that I hereby bestow the term “epic” upon it. That’s right, the one word I have formally forbid any video from using has officially earned it as its singular descriptor. This video (and the battle carried out within it) is motherfucking EPIC. Why are you still reading this? Hit play already.

It actually keep my attention the whole time. The effects and music were over the top extremely well done.

Although i could do without the first 4:30, it was still awesome. Loved the sound effects
That was remarkably well done.
If the first video took a week and a half to edit… I wonder how long this one took.
Someone already said it but I’ll say it again,
That was the single best Halo 3 video I have ever watched.

Two big elite… err… thumbs…? Two big elite digits up! :D
One of the few times that music did not feel forced and played out. Awesome.
Probably the best editing Ive seen in a machinima yet. I really liked the angles. It’s also a plus that it was hilarious.
Yes. That was epic.
Am I the only person who recognized the Mirror’s Edge music? That helped it, as well as Toad getting crushed by a tank!
You’re not, JRCB!
That entire video was indeed epic.
I recognized the song as soon as it started, it sounds awesome!
I wish I could make Machinima.
I heard the Mirror’s Edge music too. That was a really nice touch.

Extremely creative. One of the best Halo vids I’ve ever seen.
I lol’d myself to near death when Gravemind appeared and smashed Bowser into the next life like it was nothing.
Mario got his fucking ass handed to him!
