Fanboys Unleashed

When the Wii was released everyone got caught up in the idea of using the Wiimote as a lightsaber and now with The Force Unleashed making its way to home consoles on Tuesday it's finally a reality. g1 Mandalorian30 is here to take it to a whole 'notha level with his latest short film.

Don't forget to check out The Force Unleashed as well as a preview of Silent Hill: Homecoming this Tuesday at 6pm EST/5pm CST on the premiere of our new live show "Out of the Box."

now I'm pissed that there's

now I'm pissed that there's no PS3 fan.. :( lol
edit: oh wait here he comes lol

lol, and his lightsaber

lol, and his lightsaber color was red meaning darkside evilness. That's going to piss off some fanboys.

This g1 submission is awesomeness personified.

I'm an old school gamer, but I'm still hip. Wait, when referring to oneself as, "Hip", does it reverse its meaning?

Actually...

Actually, while the lightsaber 3 basic colors were the ones used, each controller (pick up any of the 3's 1st party controller) has a light on it that's either blue (Wii), red (since PS1's analog through to PS3), or green (which actually first appeared as just a green logo, but now a light on the 360's controller) during standard play. If they didn't base if off the controllers, they'd have to base it on the logo, in which case Wii and PS3 would have switched as Sony's logo is blue, and Nintendo's is red. They probably just combined the two elements (the controller and Star Wars) because they thought it would be cool...because, if they didn't, how else could you explain the color choice? Also, if they're really Star Wars fanboys...they no red is only influenced by a simple crystal that even some of the Jedi Knights use, and vis versa with the blue, green, purple, and yellow ones (just a little Star Wars trivia for you).

Or maybe it's just because

Or maybe it's just because Yoda is in the 360 Version of Soulcalibur IV, while Darth Vader is in the PS3 version. And then they used the left over color (blue) on the Wii Remote.

HA! HA!

Yheir was a fan boy, 45 minutes after the video ends he kills both the 360 fanboy and the wii fanboy, but it was kinda pointless cause by the time he got the whole thing to run Nintendo and Microsoft had already released new systems and no one care about the 360 and wii fanboys anymore... so their HA! PS3 fanboys!

Are you ready to be disciplined?

Good stuff!

Good stuff!

Nice g1 submission!

I miss Toy R Us, the one near my house just closed down a few months back. That place gave me a crapton of memories (the first time I tried the Nintendo 64, "The R Zone" a special section where I you get to play time-limited full versions of a game for each console, and it was where I got Sonic R on the luckyest day of all, St. Patrick's Day). That was the only place I shopped for my gaming needs before I found out Funcoland [before it became GameStop].

Our of the box

CAN'T WAIT!

Excellent Stuff

Today's submission sunday comes from g1 Mandalorian30, who also has another great show called, "From Pixels to Plastic," which usually features video game characters that made it to stores in the form of action figures, figurines, or even board games.

Check his stuff out!

The Legend of Zelda toys

The Legend of Zelda.. BOARD GAME!?

wow, that's good stuff

wow, that's good stuff

That board game actually

That board game actually looks pretty damn fun. Love your vids, they're awesome.

Zelda board game

Great vids!

When I was little I made a Zelda board game myself.
It comprised of a cardboard board with a drawing of a dungeon room, cardboard pieces which represent monsters, blocks, items etc and another cardboard board which represents events, I think.
I hadn't played it much but I was proud of it.:)
I have almost forgotten about this game but the video reminded me of it.

I thought the 360 fanboy

I thought the 360 fanboy would have made a comeback when the "several months later" text showed up.

the lightsaber effects

were so bad they're good Cool submission

Good enough for me!

I can tell you from experience, long tedious hours of frame by frame experience, that good lightsaber effects are not worth it for quick comedy vids.

yeah i know

I was saying that the lightsaber effects add a certain feel to the video that makes you feel like your watching something meant to be hilarious.

Lmao!

That was really good well done.

Thanks

Thanks for the laughs dudes, that was hilarious, well done.

Great Submission Sunday!

That was an awesome

That was an awesome Submission. But you could have made the 360 controller a dual saber! One coming out of each leg!

<-------------------------------------->
..What the hell is supposed to go here?

Great submission guys

I thought they were going to do the dual saber for the ps3 controller, lol. I wouldn't take the colours seriously after all, Wii does glow blue and 360 glows green anyway.
Great submission guys.

I sided with the Wii from

I sided with the Wii from the beginning of the video. Haha I'm such a fanboy even though I'm a girl

Cool

Top notch effects there lol. Kinda weird though the 360 fanboy suddenly gets glasses

Thanks guys!

Thanks so much everyone! I'm really glad you all enjoy it! And thanks to ScrewAttack for featuring me!

Just a few tidbits:

The blade colors were chosen based off of the lights ont he systems/controllers. It really had nothing to do with Jedi and Sith.

I made sure to make fun of all three flaws: PS3's load times, 360's red rings, and Wii's "strap" issues. So, I wasn't playing favorites. :)

Even though I played the part of the "Wii Fanboy," I'm actually buying the game on the 360. :P

Thanks to Lee and Ben for pimping my other videos! You guys rock!

And thanks again, g1's!! You're all awesome!
