Calling 1-800 Magic, episodes 2 and 3
Since unveiling their Shadowrun machinima series 1-800-MAGIC (no, it's not a full phone number but it still works -- it's that magical), Rooster Teeth have released two more episodes in the series.When we last left off, our scrawny protagonist with a malfunctioning weapon was mysteriously teleported to ... well, somewhere. Episode two answers that question and more, such as, "why does it smell like bacon?" Episode three marks the return of the unhelpful customer service rep. Say what you will about Shadowrun, but it has certainly set the stage for a great machinima series.Videos, rated NSFW for naughty language, embedded after the break.
1-800-Magic Episode 1 calls XBLM
The first episode of the Shadowrun machinima by Rooster Teeth Productions that we showed you yesterday, 1-800-Magic, is now available on Xbox Live Marketplace. As you may have saw, the production values are rather high, but that's to be expected from the RvB crew. The video weighs in at 227.59 MB, which shouldn't take too long, and getting a higher resolution version to appreciate the finer details of their work is never a bad thing. If the series was regularly added to Marketplace, and continue to be free, would you follow it on XBLM?

Rooster Teeth Shadowrun machinima, Fan Site kit surface
In celebration of the demo for Shadowrun hitting Xbox Live Marketplace today, a Fan Site kit is available at www.shadowrun.com, which webmasters can submit at the forums for link love on the main site. On top of that, Roosterteeth Productions has launched a machinima based off the game, 1-800-Magic. We uploaded it to YouTube and embedded it above for your viewing pleasure, be warned though, the RvB guys are known for their colorful language, so it's recommended that you're of age if you plan on viewing it. It will be available on Xbox Live Marketplace "Soon"™. Overall, the production values look very high, with a hudless camera, and even lip synched (!) voiceovers. Then again, if you think that watching it is a waste of time, we have something especially for you.
