A while back, my old roommate directed me to achievementhunter.com. I haven't had a chance to check out all of their stuff, but one segment he insisted I watch is the "Fails of the Weak". It's a series of short collections of bloopers taken from Halo: Reach.
The clips themselves run the gamut from game glitches to bad luck to sheer player stupidity. Whatever the circumstance, these videos are some of the funniest things you will ever watch. It never gets old. Hearing the two announcers crack jokes and get hysterical also adds an element of enjoyment as you can tell the two guys are having a blast just laughing at this stuff.
My only gripe about this series is that the episodes are too bloody short. Each video is only four minutes. I guess they want to let the viewer catch their breath. One also has to take into consideration that editing videos is no easy task and keeping the show short ensures that only the funniest clips are shown. Still, I can't help but feel like it ends too soon. Considering what a blast it is to watch these things, it's a little disappointing. Even expanding it to just a ten minute run time would make all the difference in my opinion.
As the title suggests, it is a weekly series (nice play on words by the way).
I highly recommend checking out this series. Even if you're not a gamer, I have no doubt that you will get a kick out of watching these clips.
You can find all of the episodes here.
