Watch the exclusive Red vs. Blue content without a Zune

by Kevin Kelly on Jun 17th 2007 2:01PM

The Halo 3 branded Zune comes packed with some exclusive content, including a Red vs. Blue video that you can't possibly see anywhere else. Oops, except the internets. Thoughtful YouTuber NitroFrost ripped the video and uploaded it for all the world to see.

The ultimate slap in the face will be folks watching this on their video iPods, completely Zune-less. Thankfully Microsoft and Bungie didn't outfit the Master Chief with one of these things in the new game ... yet.

pretty sweet, just take the drm off my music and ill join in a second

It's called CD's.

War, death, getting your scrotum hacked off by a rusty blade, all funnier than that video.

So people think Red Vs Blue is still funny?

Man, society today is being sucked into a black hole.

"War, death, getting your scrotum hacked off by a rusty blade, all funnier than that video."

At least the video was funnier than your comment.

I love when things reach that level of popularity where people start thinking it's cool to not think it's cool anymore.

It's cool to think that uncool things are uncool.

Just because Dane Cook is popular, doesn't make him funny.

Same thing with this.

hey hey hey!
just because you don't like dane cook,
doesn't mean hes not popular.

wait, what?

all these comments are getting me disorientated.

cool things are pretty cool, ya know.
except those uncool things.
i hate those guys.

Well, certain people always aren't going to like something, and if that something gets popular, their dislike of it is going to become that much more vocal

Example: PS3 haters used to be all over this site before the console came out, when people thought this generation was supposed to be all about PS3 v 360

Now: with PS3's languishing on store shelves and many people wondering if its still a contender, the vast majority of that PS3 hate has dried up

nice..

i'll say this everytime i see a topic about Zune..

"WHEN IS IT BEING RELEASED WORLDWIDE"

rvb will always be funny, even when they are doing silly adverts for Zune, they are funny.

its cheeky, today the only way to offer an exclusive, is to make it a hardware exclusive, as the interweb cant quite yet rip it.

So uh those were some of the most mind-numbing comments I've ever read. Anywho, I don't watch Red Vs Blue (I think it's retarded), but that video was so stupid. I don't see where Microsoft's going with this "Welcome to the Social" thing, and that video just proved how gay it is.

Heh... I already have it on my ipod thanks to TubeSock... :P

Is this video supposed to be funny to any over the age of 12 or do I just not get American humour?

Red vs. Blue used to be funny.

See episode 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsMIHnSOmi4&mode=related&search=

is it just me, or are those graphics markedly better than the beta ones?

mainly the player models?

"6. I love when things reach that level of popularity where people start thinking it's cool to not think it's cool anymore."

Well I thought RvB was uncool and dumb from the very start, before they became popular. :)

Good to see that Red vs Blue is still the same shit that it was when it started.

Ahahaha, Microsoft is so desperate.

Way better then RvB

@18

I think it's because no one actually took the time to oogle the player models ingame, considering half the time you were being shot..

I never really liked Red vs Blue, but this is cool news anyway.

red vs. blue is not funny, halo is overrated, and the zune is for chumps.

That's more or less a commercial for Zune disguised as a "funny" video.

Which makes it kind of weird that its a Zune exclusive.

"Oh, here's us pimping the product you just bought!"

The real funny joke would be is if the screen just popped up and said "You now own a Zune, sucker."

@ Dale

I love how people take the worst TV/IPTV show from a country and then condemn the entire country for it's shortcomings.

I love how people think that just because something doesn't appeal to them that makes it bad,I love RvB I think its funny. On the other hand I have played every Final Fantasy game once just to see and I think they are the biggest most overrated turd of game, virtually unplayable and absolutely unenjoyable. But thats my opinion. That doesn't make what I said fact. With as many people that like FF I am sure the games are good, but just not to me.

Eric, I totally agree. RvB is one of the funniest damn things ever and it is a great part of the HALO universe. There have been countless attempts to copy and outright rip RvB off but no one comes close. As stated, just because an individual doesn't care for something, it is idiotic not to be able to see the popularity of that certain something when legions of fans are proof.

Meh, I loved the first season of RvB, but past that... it was all downhill from there I think
