I have seen that video, or one virtually identical to it, before but I don't recall in what context. Nonetheless, I enjoyed it then and I enjoyed seeing it again now as it is somewhat humourous.
I don't think I canget onboard with this. Is it my lack of humor? Maybe. But blaming the game, any game is ridiculous, imho. I may change my mind on this, but I don't think so. ;)

I can't watch movies on my internet. But I can't endorse blaming games either. Sight unseen, I'm interested in finding healing, not blame, otherwise we justify what the trolls say about us. But that's just my opinion.
If that video was seriously trying to blame the game, I would agree with the sentiment of the video being inappropriate. However, I viewed it as being satire, and quite humourous as well. For the record, I do not blame any game for my problems, including the games that I had particular problems with (i.e., 3-D Pinball and Minesweeper), as they are inanimate and are hardly responsible for anything that I did or did not do. Since I did not view that video as seriously blaming the game either, I did not personally have a problem with it in that respect. Of course, that is also only my opinion.
I think it's called blame Halo 3 because it works with the rhyme and beat of the song. The man clearly states he didn't do what his wife asked, etc, because he was too busy with Halo... not that it was really the game's fault... I wish Jason would have come out with something like that... I would have laughed at it too
Yeah, it was satire, and very witty. I assume that was his actual wife participating in the fun, which i suspect she wouldn't have done if he was really blaming the game and not himself.

As I said, I can't see it. So I defer to your position. :|
