Bash stuff in time with the music!
The gameplay visuals are really immersive and well executed. It’s made by EA as a viral campaign for the Def Jam: Icon PS3/Xbox 360 game.
FYI - the multiplayer mode runs off a Java server app called SmartFoxServer - would be great to look into this for a future project.

David Barsalou has a lot of time on his hands… So much time infact that he has spent the last 25 years of his life closely examining every single illustration in over 30,000 comic books with the sole purpose of uncovering the original source material for the work of 1960s Pop Art icon Roy Lichtenstein. So far he has sourced about 140 specific illustrations that Lichtenstein has blown up and sold for mega bucks.

THE RULES
The “serve” was delivered to T. Stimpson
in the form of an image of Master Chief.
He was given 1 hour in which to prepare his “volley”
using any graphics software at his disposal
to generate a 1600×1200 static image.
There are awards for thoughtful integration
of Xbox and Halo 3 branding and assets.
Judges will consider the use of team colour
as a key criterion in their selection as well.
T. Stimpson’s volley will be received by T. Greber who will have
1 hour to prepare his, and so on through the list.
Each player will NOT see the previous volley until they request it
from the previous player, at which point their
1 hour timer begins.
The judging will take place when all volleys have been created.
A volley may be posted on the Amnesia blog once
the next player has commenced their 1 hour.
D. Wormald will reside as Umpire and Chief Judge.
All team members and the public will be invited
to make comments on the blog postings.
The awards to be given by the judging panel are as follows:

4. Individual Player – Best Xbox 360 Integration
Cash prizes to be generously donated to RvB charities by Xbox.
