About Me
When fate randomly brought me to Destructoid from Firefox's Stumble, I fell in love.

I'm a proud member of the Dtoid army and Ron Workman's biggest fan. Always ready to argue and debate utterly trivial details of a game and then talk about horse genitalia when a newb wanders into the vent.

Dtoid Army, Marching on... Also, cocks.

btw its a cblog, not a clog...

Ignis Solus - The Day of a Pyro
CannibalCalvin | 2:07 PM on 04.24.2008 18 comments




I'm not really a fan of machinima, but every once in a while something catches my eye. Ignis Solus is really unique short film that follows a lonely and rather bored pyro. I have to say, my favorite part is the music and the sense of emptiness and haunting it instills.

One of the things that really struck me was that not only does it show off a really well developed cinematic technique; it shows just how polished and fine tuned the animations in Team Fortress 2 are. In the middle of a game its easy to over look the animations and I find it really refreshing to be able to soak them in without taking a rocket to the face.

Theres a HD version on the Lit Fuse Films site, and you can even download a rather large version.

Entertaining the first time, but it loses its appeal after.

Very cool, I hadn't seen that before but In have seen other TF machinema. It always impresses me and I agree it does show the animations very nicely.
