Replay Couch 13: Live Action
A little TF2, a few Valentine's Day primers, and a lot of live-action video game clips.

Chivalry Lives (link to this video)
Valentine's Day is only a few days away, and what better way to celebrate than with a Mass Effect video? Because as we all know, this game is about sweet, sweet love, and hardcore sex. Take this video for example.

Reptile, Wins (link to this video)
There are TF2 players, and then there are TF2 players. MW.Reptile and friends are in the second category. Thanks to aeg1x for pointing the way to this display.

Chivalry Dies (link to this video)
Another V-Day video, this time via Shacker paravis, by Skeletard at Goonskate. My favorite part is the little fist-pump of victory.

Retro Trailer of the Week: Homeworld (link to this video)
Sins of a Solar Empire is pretty great, but its combat systems don't hold a candle to Homeworld. Here's an early trailer for Relic's groundbreaker, straight from the Half-Life CD.

_PAGE_BREAK_Chair Invaders (link to this video)
The Gameover Project has done a bunch of these people-on-chair video game recreations. Here's their version of Space Invaders, complete with plenty of grunting and pew-pewing.

Pacman Live (link to this video)
There is so much subtext in this Pacman video. The poor businessman, going about his quiet life with a dignified dedication, earning his wages, suddenly forced to hand it all over to dangerous baseball bat-wielding Yakuza. The depth of Japanese television never ceases to amaze.

Tetris? Is That You? (link to this video)
Apparently this is supposed to be Tetris. It doesn't look a whole lot like Tetris to me. It is pretty amusing, though.

Impossible Video of the Week: Halo Live (link to this video)
How many videos of insane Halo suicides have we seen? How many videos of unlikely grenade bounces? Of ridiculous physics-bending sniper shots?
Now imagine if one man set out to do it for real. With real bullets. Seriously.
Armed with faith and a ridiculous .50 caliber rifle, this guy was up to the challenge.
