Red vs Blue Meets The Sims

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the molto-machinima dept.

blackbearnh writes "The folks over at Rooster Teeth Productions, best known for their Red vs Blue comedy movies based on the Halo rendering engine, are branching out with a second series, with more of a sitcom flair, called The Strangerhood. This time, they're using the Electronic Arts Sims 2 game as their rendering engine."

    I go with some friends tonight to see the new movie Sky Captain in our local cinemaplex. Halfway
    through the movie I'm about to cork off and decide to liven things up a little in the theater.

    Unknown to my friends, I had eaten several bowls of cereal and milk earlier and I'm basically lactose intolerant.
    What this boils down to is that the cereal and milk ferment
    in my gut and give me really raunchy gas about 2 hours
    after I down them.

    Well, the gas attack happens on schedule and I proceed to
    start stinking up the theater with SBDs! Beside me is an
    oriental couple and their little girl is sitting in the
    seat right next to me. She was getting the brunt of the
    noxious fumes, and after 30 minutes of getting gassed she
    was in tears and sobbing out loud to her mother that "I
    WANNA GO HOOOOOME MOMMY".
    It was all I could do to keep from busting out laughing.

    Of course, you could hear other people sitting in front of
    and behind me complain about the stench too. Isn't life
    grand?

    Three editors of a popular technology news site, slashdot.org, fell under the fire of a local internet Crip gang set today. One shot proved fatal. Two editors remain in critical condition.

    OMFG Bush is an idiot
    I know... It's almost painful to listen to 'em.

    But it sure is funny how he makes faces and dances around when Kerry's got 'em by the nuts.

    What's most depressing is that the majority of Americans actually agree with him and thinks that he's smart. Why else was he elected?
    My view of Americans now is the crazy gun slinging cowboy from The Simpsons.

    I really don't give a shit about your message. I haven't really paid much attention, but it seems that you are a pathetic loser that doesn't have much to do. You are a really sad example of a human being.

    But I'm very grateful, because I have learned a lot thanks to your post. You see, I don't really have a lot of free time, but at least I try to use it constructively. Today, I'm learning about HTML formatting of Slashdot posts, following yours as an example.

    In particular, today I:

    • Learned how to write text in italics with bullets.
    • I already knew how to do similar things, but this gives a much cleaner output.
    But that's not all!
    I also learned that you can mix monospaced fonts with regular text.
    Before, if I wanted to include a nicely formatted table, I would resort to posting the whole thing in "code" style.
    And a final lesson: This lines are all indented. I'm using DD instead of BLOCKQUOTE (that's what I normally use, and that's what's used in the monospaced lines). Apparently DD doesn't automatically insert the vertically space that I hated in BLOCKQUOTE.
    Now, laugh all you want at my ignorance of HTML, but we all have to learn each thing some day. Kudos to you if you mastered it years ago.

    "Anybody know of any open source engines that are similar to the Sims?"

    Shut the fuck up. Please, just shut the fuck up.
