Red vs. Blue crew discusses their roles in Halo 3
If you've gone through Halo 3, you may have stumbled upon a comical exchange during level 3 ("Crow's Nest") featuring some familiar voices. Well, familiar if you're a Red Vs. Blue fan. Roosterteeth, the team behind the wildly popular machinima series, bid $9000 at last year's Child's Play event to get their voices included in Halo 3 (naturally, Bungie later told them they could've pitched in even if they hadn't won the auction).
GameDaily caught up with some of the crew last week to get their feedback on the experience and their thoughts on Halo 3 in general. Jason Saldana (voice of Tucker) said, "What's pretty cool about it is that six of us provided audio for it, so you end up hearing different voices depending on what difficulty level you play." Take a peek at all four of the different easter eggs involving RvB characters after the break.
Also, RvB fans may want to check out last week's Xbox 360 Fancast featuring Red Vs. Blue's Geoff Ramsey for some more Halo 3 chatter.

ololololllol, that was a good one, I didn't know there were 3 of em though... but they got a little ripped, lawl.

HA. I knew it was them. It was Jason and...dammit...whoever plays Doc in Crow's Nest.
Neebs @ Oct 6th 2007 11:03PM
Apparently it changes by difficulty. Have to check it tomorrow.

I was wondering why that sounded so familiar. My friend and I were laughing our asses off when we heard that.

I like the second one the best on heroic. "Come on man we need ammo and the Chief is out here!"
"Does he know the password?"
"How could he know the password WHEN HE WASN'T IN THE MEETING!"

RvB has it's moments, very few, but for the most part is as retarded as the shitty web comics
Peter @ Oct 7th 2007 12:15AM
Your face is retarded! RvB FTW!! PUMA!! LOL! What happened to the PUMA Warthog wheels from the Beta?
Raptor @ Oct 7th 2007 12:36AM
I'm sure you have your moments, very few. But this wasn't one of them.
Eric @ Oct 7th 2007 12:43AM
You are a stone cold moron
Geist @ Oct 7th 2007 12:12AM
Hilarious stuff, but doesn't really fit with the theme of the game. It's like putting a graphic decapitation in Mario. It's jarring.

halo is pretty nish mash in terms of tone. You have serious and dramatic... and then you have enemies running around making funny noises and muttering to themselves. its all over the place..

This is cool and all (I didn't notice their voices myself) but I'm mainly concerned about Nathan Fillion, Adam Baldwin, Alan Tudyk and Katee Sackoff voicing marines in the game (and practically playing their Firefly/BSG characters).
But maybe I'm just too much of a geek.
Metacore @ Oct 7th 2007 2:20AM
Dude... Adam Baldwin should have done one of these... With Nathan Fillion...

Man I really need to pay more attention to stuff like this in games. When I was playing this level, I just shot the guy in the head and didn't listen to what he was saying.
ReverendGadgetBoy @ Oct 7th 2007 4:03PM
why did you shoot him?
IAMDUDE70 @ Oct 8th 2007 2:15AM
I like killing marines for no reason.

I stumbled upon these 2 when doing the campaign, and I did recognise them as the voices of RvB. It's nice to se Bungie acknowledging what RvB did for the Halo franchise. I just wish they'd carry on making the shorts into Halo 3 :(

I noticed that first time through Legendary. I found that amazing. I guess I didn't know they went for a charity auction to get in it, but it was really cool to hear that. Kinda an 'art influences art influences art' kind of thing.

"then you have enemies running around making funny noises and muttering to themselves."
Dont forget about the brute taking a piss in the... oh thats right you havent played the game. stfu
Peter @ Oct 7th 2007 11:16AM
Why should he STFU? He is right, remember grunts? All the do is run around screaming and saying "Ahhh! It's the demon! Run AWAY!"
Bonafide247 @ Oct 7th 2007 8:42AM
Big hairy deal...not really funny
HineyWipe @ Oct 7th 2007 9:26AM
Um why didn't they have David Cross back? He was effin hilarious!
I also think that once you get the "I Would have Been You Daddy skull", you unlock hidden dialog.

They were the same guys? Wow, I knew that the lines were ripped, but I thought that was just a tribute. Maybe when I finish I'll look for their names in the credits.
EDSJack @ Oct 8th 2007 5:06PM
Those exchanges were funny. I'll have to keep an ear out for the Firefly characters too.
