For the fans of the Halo franchise, the Red vs Blue series of videos is the ultimate blend of comedy, multimedia and gaming. With 10 seasons under their belts, Rooster Teeth decided it was time to move on. But don't worry, you can relive the zany antics of Sarge, Church and the crew over and over again with the 14-disc boxed set which released on DVD and Blu-ray on November 6.
The boxed set is said to feature newly re-mastered surround sound audio, plus additional videos and miniseries, hours of special features, interviews and behind-the-scenes footage. All said and done, it is a beast of a set with over 18 hours of footage.
I can't help but think that this would make a great gift for the majority of the 2old2play community members and if I win the lottery, I'll be sure to send each of you a boxed set. In the meantime, point your significant other, kids, pets, etc to this article and let them know this is on your wish list. Coming in at $139.95 US/$154.95 CAN for the DVD Boxed set and $179.95 US/$199.95 CAN this may wipe out their gift budget, but it would be totally worth it, right?
If you're still unsure about whether this is a must-have item for this holiday season, perhaps these comments from some of the 2o2p Chicago LAN attendees will convince you. The RVBX on blu-ray was the most coveted item at the Child's Play Charity Auction and ultimately won by i6Hitman. Maybe he will let you borrow it if you ask him nicely!
