Nathan Fillion. Making me want to play Halo since, well, now.

Apologies for all the video I've been posting lately. I'll go back to being real quiet like, honest. ;-)

Now, I'm not a big Halo fan, I've only played Halo 3 and it was just like 30 minutes worth at my sister's place, but the latest game in the franchise, Halo: ODST, looks like a winner, even to me. Why? Nathan Fillion plays your sergeant.

Adam and Alan are also part of your squad, but they go missing behind enemy lines, so I assume they won't be featured as much. But Nathan. Shouting orders at you. For the entire game. That's enough to make me want to play, whether the game is good or not. Actually, I have no reference for how good a Halo game should be, so I'm like the perfect target audience. I won't complain but I'll play all the way through regardless.

Buying a game just for the voice over work? Honestly, that's not the saddest thing I've ever done. I watched Desperate Housewives for that one season just to see Nathan and it's totally not my kind of show.

And there's always a chance I could run into Nathan on-line while playing multi-player. It could happen. :-D

An Xbox 360 is actually a great investment. Not only can you play games but you can also watch video on it. All the shows I watch through "alternative means", I can watch on my TV rather than on my computer and it's so much better. But anyway...

I think this is great marketing. The Halo people know Firefly fans will totally play this game because of Nathan. It also helps that the makers of the game are also huge Browncoats.

Your computer is back in the land of the living! Whoot!
