I actually really liked the 1st place American one because the dialogged was just the right level of cheesiness. I think the 2nd place American submission was really cool. The guy clearly had a huge ambitious idea however, for that same reason he wasn't able to put as much detail into it as something like the mule (which was brilliant, simple and polished).

tbh it might just be different judges, seemed to be a different style going on.

I liked 'Richard's (Canada), nice use of the in game camera took me a while to recognise the maps and gave it a real pace (well until he started to pause too much and lost it).

Real winner should ofcourse been A Viking's Lament


Yeah this was hilarious.

The judging made no sense to me on their "winners"

Keep in mine the Europe winners were being pulled from ALL of Europe as opposed to the US just being US (and Canada, missed that)..could account for the difference in quality.



Well, population size is one criteria but I think the real difference is the diversity of culture in Europe vs cultural homogeneity of North America.

I really enjoyed watching all the vids, but agree that overall the EU entries were 'better'.

The one from Poland is so cool. You just gotta love the end :D

However the first place was pretty nice as well.

lmao @ the people bashing the US Grand Prize, I'll admit there were better, but I'd like to see you put together authentic marine and medic costumes, and get on camera and do what they did, hell they even got a chick who wasn't half bad.

I think the runner up from Vancouver's video should have won. It just had an epic feel to it.

The mule video was so stupid. There was no intelligence or creativity involved in the video. Just search techno song and you'd get the exact same experiance. All the other winners were much more epic and worthy.

camera movement on that 3rd US one was amazing, I dont' think anyone would complain if that were switched wtih 1st place since 1st place pretty much blew a can of ass

Edit: Lol I never noticed what the ghost says until watching the 4th US video "Nucular (Bush-way of saying Nuclear) launch detected)

The CGI animation was really impressive for a one man job. Animations were really crisp for one guy.

The mule video was the shit, definitely deserved to win imo. I can just imagine the blizzard staff who looked at these shitting themselves laughing at it. It's really a great concept and is really well put together for a short video contest.

I really loved the MULE video and the claymation runner up from the Euro winners, but felt that all of the American winners were not even close... all in all though, a good group of videos!


/QF[Effin]T.

I didn't even feel like watching the american ones! The mule was tooooo epic!

I think in the end he should have had an orbital command call-down another mule to that spot and have the same thing all over again while the music slowly fades and picture blurs! Lol cuz that's kinda how it is... terran party while mules are mining and then *crrrrrank... xP

Dont quote me boy, cuz I aint saying shhh...

MULE was pretty awesome obviously. The russian video was pretty damn cool, too.

American winner was okay. They could have made a little effort in the "acting" though. I know this is an amateur video, but still...
The girl playing the dropship pilot was the best part.

I couldn't agree more. I watched the top 2 from both regions and they were all painfully boring.

edit: The viking vid that people seem to like so much was the worst out of all of them. I turned that one off about 1/3 of the way though, but I managed to get through the others.
