Well, the old adage goes that a picture is worth a thousand words. So I was thinking about doing some movies of Durandal to help people out. So how much is a movie worth? Recon's mum says hers are worth $19.99 for each vid with a option to cancel at any time. I think I'll make my walk through vids for free...
Alright, I know that Durandal can be a little confusing sometimes, and it's easy to get lost amongst the bright shiny Marathon goodness. So while I was playing today, I took the time to record everything. Typically the vids only show the quickest ways to get through the levels. They are by NO means complete walk-throughs. However, if you happen to get stuck on a certain part, come to this thread and download the chapter you need help with and maybe you'll find what you need.
**WARNING** **WARNING** **WARNING**
The videos you are about to download contain large amounts of WIN, you've been warned!

[b][i][u]SUPER HUGE STUPENDOUS UPDATED!!!
Well as some of you may know that Mythica, the site I was using to host these videos went down a few months ago. So while I was at PAX this past weekend I ran into Louis Wu of Halo.Bungie.Org fame and asked about if he was able to salvage them before Mythica went under. He said he did, and so here they are!!!
All links should work 100% fine now. If you get a problem, feel free to post in the thread and I'll see what's going on. I downloaded the 1st and Last vid and both worked fine so I'm hoping the rest are the same.[/b][/i][/u]

Gotta say, I bought this game. Doesn't stand well against the test of time. However, your contributions to the community is still appreciated and respected.

Thank you for this guide, it helped me complete the campaign and get the vidmaster achievement.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Uae Gamer Thanks for the videos OP, I was stuck in BOB's Big Date but thanks to you, I'll finish it in no time.[/quote] No problemo. Glad the videos could help out. When I played, the 2 maps that drove me nuts were: Ex Cathedra and Kill Your Television. Honorable mention goes to 6,000 Feet Under. Glad you made it through BoB's Big Date but get ready for 6K Feet Under. Plenty of gooey lava to fall into!! Good luck! ~B.B.

Just to give an update: I have Durandal back on my 360 working fine so if you need the "7th Column" achievement, just send me a message on here or a message on XBL and I should be able to help you unlock it. I actually helped another 2 guys unlock it a couple days ago. ~B.B.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] bobcast How close do you sit to your TV or monitor? You're probably experiencing "reverse motion sickness." Your body receives its postural input from several sources. With motion sickness we only need to worry about two of them, your visual signals, and everything else (The proprioceptive and vestibular). In normal motion sickness you become ill because you have a fixed horizon, but your body is in motion. Your brain gets confused as to why the different senses are conflicting and starts stimulating pathways that induce nausea/vomiting/vertigo as a side effect in order to resolve that conflict. With "reverse motion sickness" your position is fixed, but your horizon is moving. The same internal conflict arises and you'll start to feel sick. If you are sitting to close to a TV or monitor so that the only horizon you see is a screen that is always in motion, your brain will think that you're in motion, however you're not. Try backing up some, so that more of the room is in your field of vision. I had the same problem when I first started doing laproscopy. I would get very dizzy and would have to look away to settle it down. I found moving the monitors back a foot or so stopped all of that. [/quote] Ignore Doogie Howser here for he knows nothing!! Actually Dr. Bob's probably right (and your uncle). So, if you're sitting 6" away from your awesome rad 72" 1080P 120hz LCD and playing Durandal at 60FPS, well, you're pretty awesome. However, you'll probably be more likely to run into some "motion sickness" type ailments. At least Ruben that you got to play through the games with Aleph One. I only got to play them a little bit because I had a lot of trouble getting them to work and I suxorx using a keyboard to move. Which is really pretty funny since I used to play Quake and UT99 competitively in high school. Too bad I didn't get a chance to play Marathon back then as well. ~B.B.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Ruben Clones I can't even explain the feeling I get while playing, I wouldn't call it motion sickness or even queasy, I haven't actually felt physically sick from playing. It's just a very unsettling feeling which leaves me feeling quite uncomfortable, so much so that I need to step off. [/quote] How close do you sit to your TV or monitor?
