Billox, after making a convincing rise to the top of the other British Quakeadelica entrants, was given the opportunity to face off with the gaming celebrity and former champion. The original recording, made by a Planetquake observer named SumFuka, didn't provide much viewable material, due to a bug in the current recording setup.
If there was ever a demo the world wanted to see, it was this historical match-up. Overman decided to take the source material for Thresh's first public Quake2 appearance, and make it his first publically released recam. The praise and critical acclaim received by this film are what ultimately led to the formation of the machinima production group, Zarathustra Studios (http://z-studios.com). It remains one of the most popular recams of all time.
Available in highlight reel or full match.
