Mass Effect 2 Machinima: Dance Dance Retribution

Oh man, it’s not very often that a machinima piece makes me laugh these days, but then again, most pieces aren’t named Dance Dance Retribution. Nor do they feature two Krogans from Mass Effect 2 dancing. This is a piece created by Blue Suns for the 48 hour machinima contest that was featured in Fantastic Fest this past weekend in Austin, Texas. I kept hearing good things about it, so I just had to post on it.

Really, there’s not much else to say other than that it follows the tale of a Krogan seeking extreme justice through extreme dance moves. And it’s hilarious. Give it a watch.

Best of all? It was co-created by a SmoothFewFilms fan that goes by the handle of Gassy Mexican. Great job, man!

  2. LOL Great machinma. Ironically, Dance Fortress 2 came out today, which is a short machinima of all the character classes dancing from Team Fortress 2. The guy working on that took 4 months to make each part and it basically was his application to Valve.

  3. [quote comment=”13679″]Love it.

    Absolutely brilliant. Made my day.

    I wish there were more decent ME2 machinima around, or am I just not looking hard enough?[/quote]
    I wish there were more too, but it requires knowledge and use of the Unreal Dev Kit, so a little harder than filming in Halo lol.

  4. Thanks Eddy for posting this! We definitely had a lot fun of making it and it has payed off. It’s always nice to hear others have seen it and enjoyed it as well.

    If you’re looking for more ME2 machinima you may want to check out “Reprisal”, a machinima series by Kootra that I happen to voice for (definitely worth checking out). Currently Ep 1 is the only one out (along some other teasers, 2 should be coming soon). Linkage – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVq7FcBaHcQ (Might wanna also watch “Blasto” in the related vids)

    (Bit of a side-note)
    @Eddy, I’m an avid listener of The Gamer Sushi Show and really appreciate the style of podcast you guys bring to the table. Now, I’ve been trying to get a hold of your email (here’s hoping you see this) in order to see if you (or any others from smooth few) would be interested in being a guest from the machinima community on a podcast I help run for another site, http://www.virtualflicks.net

    We’re on 6 podcasts now and have had some guests including Kootra, GuitarmasterX7 & Dexterboy124, GeneticSpartan, blackouTT, and most recently Graham (head of theduogroup) thus far.

    (Some BG on what VF is)
    Basically what Virtual Flicks is, is a place for machinima enthusiasts and creators alike. We provide resources ranging from Voice Actors, Composers, Tutorials, and a community.

    If you or anyone from SFF is interested in being a guest on the show, drop me a line at my email gonzorapido@hotmail.com .

    Thanks again.
