Video Game Massacre Montages

'Art of the Instakill' Pays Tribute to One-Hit Death Dealers

Anyone who’s a fan of modern gaming will appreciate 'Art of the Instakill,' an epic montage of one-hit death dealing moves that ensures opponents go down and stay down. Made by production team Corridor Digital, 'Art of the Instakill' has live-action actors enacting famous moves by the likes of Master Chief, James Bond, Commander Shepard and, the king of video games himself, Mario. Prepare to overdose on geekiness when watching this badass tribute vid.

It would be a great injustice to talk about 'Art of the Instakill' without talking about the soundtrack as the Corridor Digital team painstakingly remixed memorable tracks from each of the games featured into one fluid and ear-pleasing song. The results were so good that Corridor Digital even has a download link on their YouTube page for those interested.
