Hey Gallery, I've been making machinimas for three-and-a-half years now, and finally I'm beginning my first massive series: Rise of the Spartans.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Arbiter 617 No one has seen the last 10 minutes of 8...not even myself...[/quote]My apology, I meant the last 10 minutes of seven.
-
Wow... Its almost over...There will be no other series like this for for awhile.

Part 8 will be epic. I got goose bumps when I saw the last 10 mins of it.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] shadow 2648 HOW DID THIS FLY UNDER THE RADAR So glad i peeked into the dusty corner of the Gallery. [/quote] Wow... you are way, way late... Also part 6 was the best part up until now. [Edited on 08.13.2012 6:59 PM PDT]

Just watched Part 5, amazing.

This is one of the best machinimas i have ever seen, keep up the good work.
-
Wow, amazing. I just watched Episode one. Going to watch more tomorrow.
-
Epic, this is definitely by far the best machinima and it keeps getting better every episode. So can't wait until Part 8!
-
Absolutely fantastic work! I have to agree with ajw34307, RotS is some of the best work I've seen in a Halo machinima since the Codex series. The camera angles, the music, the characters, it all ties together brilliantly. Can't wait for Part 8, Arbiter! The monitor at the end was a very nice touch. I'm looking forward to see how you incorparate him into the story.
-
Part 7 just HAS to be one of my favorite parts of the series. It was done VERY well. Nice job Arbiter617.
-
If I were to align the quality, impact and importance of RotS with any Halo machinima, it would have to be The Codex/Heretic series. The quality stories, characters and arcs you produce is leaps and bounds beyond any contemporary machinima series I can think of. As ever, absolutely fantastic work. While I didn't think that the depth of this part was quite on-par with the previous one, this was full of absolutely brilliant moments - both sad and inspiring. The music, the choreography, the voice work, the action and the twists were all really well done and I'm sure I speak for many when I say that a resolution to a certain twist in Part 5 was very satisfying. You have left me on tenterhooks for the next part. [Edited on 08.05.2012 3:59 PM PDT]

Sorry everyone for having this Part delayed for so long. It was practically looking like this two weeks ago but we were missing lines and retakes. Kalos has been replaced by Daniel Hodge for this Part. Rahgath should have said "Sahjook" instead of "Sahjuck" Every time Thel said Idga he should have said Dygo and vis versa.
-
Great work with part 6, by the way! Hope you can get those one and a half people soon.
-
Hey, Arbiter. I've heard the Halo: Reach soundtrack in Rise of the Spartans, so do you know if the Halo: Reach soundtrack is covered under Microsoft's Game Content Usage Rules? I was hoping to use it for my Machinima. Thanks! [Edited on 08.01.2012 11:00 AM PDT]

I also don't understand what Ocelot and Whisper were arguing about somewhat near the end... Weren't they new to Swift? How would they know his story? And what's the point of them arguing over that anyways? I am going to stop replying now... I don't see why the Covenant would attack the Spartan Training Base thing, unless that was the start of the war. Was it? I didn't know who the recurring characters were who were getting killed in the last scene, I mean I remembered them from earlier scenes, but they just weren't significant enough to create the intended impact. Oh! And I just remembered an idea I thought of awhile ago. You need those ODSTs from one of the first episodes to return at some point. Maybe the Red and Blue Marines and the Turquoise ones as well... I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE CUTSCENE AFTER THE CREDITS MEANS! [Edited on 07.30.2012 11:01 PM PDT]

I don't get what those AIs were there for... Or why Sev deactivated them.
-
Never mind, I just saw the PSA. I didn't know that Fido actually changed the Spartan Laser. [Edited on 07.30.2012 11:03 PM PDT]
-
So... Why did he shoot the Janitor guy? To prove a point? [Edited on 07.30.2012 9:53 PM PDT]
-
Absolutely brilliant. I have no idea how you'll top Part 6 though, the last 10 minutes in-particular were some of the finest pieces of emotional storytelling I've seen - not just as a machinima, as a piece of art.
-
As long as I'm just awaiting further voice acting, here's a [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eSKFgpsflg]Youtube Spot[/url] for your patience.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] OfTheBloodguard So I finally got around to watching the 6th part of this. It kept me up all night, dude. I've never watched a machinima that made me feel so many things before. Kudos to you, this series is up there with some of the greatest things I've ever seen.[/quote] Very true!!!

If no one minds me asking... Could you give us some sort of date as to when part 7 will be out, Arbiter? The anticipation is killing me!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] SemiproMocha3 Love the trailer![/quote] Still need to watch it, lol. Sorry Arbiter!
