# "The Game" 2005-03-02
It's all a game to Locke and the others are his pawns. But which side does he play on? Light or dark? You decide.

I love this! The video and the music blended together pefectly. It felt crazy intense, and... gah! Great job, Hobbes.

Yay! It made it in! (On dial-up, this is always a thing to be celebrated!

)

Thank you again for the YSI link, Hobbes! Didn't want to mention that I couldn't get the Putfile link to work (something about my Quicktime having a slight hissy about the AVI format). But I knew that the new codecs I'd downloaded a while back for WMP covered AVI so figured I'd be able to view it that way. And it worked! Yippee!

Anyway, this is about one of the most completely INTENSE vids I think I've ever seen!

For anybody who's gotten lulled into thinking that Locke's just this nice, cradle-making, rock-star-drug-rehabilitating guy, you've gotta see this vid! Loved that feeling of absolute menace radiating throughout every pounding beat of the song!

Also liked how you divided up the sections to focus on Charlie, then Boone, then Claire. Really made it a more cohesive story than having them randomly spread out through the vid.

Awesome effects at the end there!

And I liked the way the credits bled. It just looked cool!

Over all, I really enjoyed this one and am glad I finally got the chance to see it!

LOL it's interesting that I did a video that makes Locke look so evil, when I myself really don't think that's the case (though I kinda wish it

because that would make such a more interesting storyline

)
Thanks for going through the hell of downloading the video just for lil ol' me

It means a lot!

I'm not all that proud of this video, but I DO really enjoy the last chunk of it, right after Shannon gets eaten lol. right from that part, it starts to get what I wanted it from the beginning, but just couldn't get the effects working righ

I blame WMM for wrecking my artistic vision

You think he looks evil NOW?! Well he would be even EVILER if WMM didn't crap out on me

LOL

Wow, I wish I could understand how you feel...

Actually, I didn't think he looked "evil" per se, so much as he came across as dangerous and somebody you do NOT want to mess with. Ooo, me likey...

Okay, so I have a bad boy fixation. It's a character flaw, what can I say???

And hey, I never mind waiting around for vids to come in, especially when they're good.

That was amazingly awesome! That is your best vid! As Aisylnn said, I love how you split it so parts focuses on Charlie, then Boone, then Claire.

That was great!

Wow!

Shame on me that I didn't write a comment on that one by now

Very very cool indeed!!

I think that's my favorite one of your vids so far.
As Aislynn already said it's very well done the way you showed the other side of John Locke. As much as I love this character, he's a weirdo and kindo frightening at times with all his island-obession. We can only wait until Season Two (or further) to see what side he's really on.

And it's also great how you showed his connections to the other survivors and how he's able to excercise some influence on them. My favorite part is the "slower" one where Locke gets attacked by Boone.

Ever thught about making a Locke/Jack video? You're quite good at Locke vids and this might be an intersting one.

Thanks for the comments, KajaM!

Pleaseant surprize!

I've been looking for a good song for this for a while now. I think that idea would make a great contest though. Recruiting campaign for Jack and/or Locke

But either way, I'm the biggest procrastinator that ever existed anyway

sigh...

Gah! This was amazing! The song is just so badass and you conveyed Locke as such a creepy fuck. Awesome job with explaining the characters' situations and how he handles them. Wonderful editing too
