MUST SEE Halo: Reach Montage - Salaya's "Live Your Life"
Subscribe to my backup account for more Halo videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/FBWalshyFTWReturns This is a Halo: Reach montage/funtage from Salaya entitled, "Live Your Life", put together by himself, and it is, hands down, my favorite Halo: Reach video to date. The amount of originality in the gameplay is just incredible, and I have never been entertained so much by Reach footage before. The gameplay is simply packed full of things that never would have occurred to me in a million years, featuring lots of very interesting maneuvering for nice assassinations. The gameplay also features its share of sick multikills, showcasing a nice 2 for 1 spawn snipe on Asylum along with a couple sweet overkills. As for the editing, I really liked it as well. One of the first things that came to mind when I was watching this montage was how much it was like a nostalgic, relaxed Halo 2 montage. The editing is there, syncing enough of the footage to establish a basic flow, only using a collection of fairly basic techniques to preserve the impact of the gameplay. It's not amazing, but it gets the job done. I also thought the soundtrack very nicely completed the relaxed feel this montage has, and I also want to add that Salaya deserves mad props for capturing live, one of the defining aspects of the Halo 2 montage era. The only real complaint I can see anybody possibly coming up with for this video is the quality, but as someone who's been around since the pre-HD days of YouTube, the quality isn't that bad and is actually quite solid as far as SD quality goes. The SD quality actually added to the video for me by contributing to the nostalgic Halo 2-montage feel I described earlier. To sum up all of what I think about this montage, I have never had so much fun watching a Reach video before, and this video is a much-needed and incredibly refreshing change of pace Halo: Reach montages desperately need.
