- DyDx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+46It's a sad day if your group is made fun of for being too geeky or nerdy by those who frequent Digg...
- marcuschi, on 10/12/2007, -1/+32http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ufaBKdY60w
That is my favorite of all time. I always wondered how they could calculate damage in their minds during live action...
"Lightning bolt!" - AngryRepublican, on 10/12/2007, -6/+34That looks fun as all hell. There is not reason to kid yourselves in here, fellas. These people are doing what they enjoy.
- rhinopig, on 10/12/2007, -3/+27"It's not what people think it is. Everybody wants to think we're all, like, nerds, but most people really are not nerds."
Correct. Most people aren't nerds... just the ones who LARP. - dirtyhand, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20Wow, this is fake, its huge marketing strategy for God of War 2. Go to the url in the video and see for yourself.
- senorcool, on 10/12/2007, -3/+20It looks fun as hell to be the one guy who doesn't go down when they should. Everybody would yell "CHEATER!" but then I would just hit them with my lead pipe.
- LazloHollifeld, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16Lightning Bolt!
Lightning Bolt!
Sleep! - LFAB, on 10/12/2007, -2/+16Numbers don't go that high.
- batmanjr, on 10/12/2007, -3/+14"Most people think it's a bunch of nerds, but it's not a bunch of nerds."
Oh yeah, and where were they during the filming? They must have been off with all the hot chicks that do LARP'ing as well. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9LARPing to the extreme: http://www.darkonthemovie.com/trailers_qt_hi.html
......................wow - LMNOP, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8your right...
"most people are not nerds."
but you sir are not most people - rulesaremyenemy, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12But you have no problem making fun of them while you cruise your social bookmarking website? Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black? Do what you love, and if someone looks down on you for it they can go ***** themselves.
- slapshot24, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10> EVERY ORAPHACE
Apparently you were off LARPing during your English class. Orifice. - BigDfromCali, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Whatever you think of LARP'ing, or people who LARP, I don't LARP as I think it's a bit over the top, you do have to acknowledge their creativity and courage to do something mainstream America is likely to percieve as being strange or nerdy.
- sedo1800, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6digg up dirtyhands he is right go to http://www.battleofthegods.tv/ = Gods of war 2 promo site
- gaiden2k5, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6We got coseplay why the hell can't we have LARP? that's like letting ppl shop in a game but they can't fight, and that's wrong.
@marcuschi 'great vid btw'

this is just another 'game' and to those who thinks it's dumb:
"lightning bolt, lightning bolt, lightning bolt, lightning bolt. . . sleep, sleep, sleep!" - TeCuervo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I think all of us like to escape reality every once in a while. Never tried larping but I have to admit that when I used to play with sticks and sword-fighting with my brother we use to seriously hurt each other... or my dad once he found out what we did
They pad the stuff so it looks safer and just as much fun. - blofeld9999, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3After watching the video marcuschi posted, check out the special edition at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpmvFK02jY8
- diizy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4DAMNIT!
i was so going to point that out. but what a wicked job they did on the viral marketing.
good job. regardless i still want god of war 2 - a2artifacts, on 01/13/2009, -0/+2LARP is awesome, all you naysayers just don't understand the allure of reliving medieval history. That's fine but you don't have to get down on those of us who do, besides we have swords and armor, you don't.
- KMye, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2It looked to me like Zeus/Gandalf was charging into battle with an umbrella the first time watched...

Nerd self-denial - djenryte, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1LMAO I knew the scenery looked familiar, this video was filmed at William Mason Park, a block down from where I live. It's right next to the University of California, Irvine campus in Orange County, California. Google Map Link: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=92612&layer=&ie=UTF8&om=1&z=17&ll=33.655236,-117.831405&spn=0.004581,0.013196&t=h&iwloc=addr
Too bad I wasn't there when this carnage occurred. Quite the grizzly sight. - CptCancer, on 10/12/2007, -1/+22 damage! 2 damage!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2wow bring on the avian flu please.
- CourtesyFlush, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Actually, you haven't really lived until you've had every ounce of air forcefully evacuated out of your lungs by a gut hit from a dense foam war hammer at full speed.
Although, we're not LARP folks. We're just crazy bikers who beat each other senseless with padded sticks at camp outs.
Hey, it beats shooting one another. - dblatti, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Dugg because Anthony is a tool.
- kalleanka, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1True guys, plus you can see the fight between the different characters on their website (including one chick versus chick fight):
http://www.battleofthegods.tv/ - bootstrap, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1looks pretty cool actually, like a lot of fun :)
I think I couldnt live into stuff like that but cool that they can... - Travelsonic, on 03/23/2009, -0/+1"Obviously you're all cut from the same cloth, VIRGINS!! :-D"
'cause sticking up for somebody means you are a part of the same culture.
/s
You really don't know the meaning of the term "logic," do you? - BleedingHeadKen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I have been studying Escrima for the last few years. When we spar using real sticks and rubber knives, we tend to get hurt. I think I'd rather do something like this with foam and less pain, though maybe without the role playing...
- kaspy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Phoenix Down! Phoenix Down!
- Travelsonic, on 03/23/2009, -0/+1" If you have an account and post on Digg you are technically a nerd. "
No, if you have an account on a website, that means you find the site interesting.
There is more to being a nerd and not being a nerd than ONE thing somebody does.
Ignorance at its greatest. - awol21, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Alright guys, look, I know its a tough one, but we all just have to come together and acknowledge that this subset of our society is a group of nerds. That's right, NERDS. What are the implications of this? Well, it means that this group will rule over us in the future as bosses in the workplace. Who would encourage the formation of such groups you ask? Maybe those who haven't seen real life boobies? My point is that toplessness in women must be raised to a level of acceptability in our society to combat this very issue. Just some more nonsense to consider.
- shaun1018, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Where are the GMs Kratos took me out of the gaming experience.
- Travelsonic, on 03/23/2009, -0/+1I can acknowledge you are retarded/incapable of reasonable, rational thought.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1lmao at 1:10-1:14 "Shovel!"
nerds - KarthVader, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Darkon actually looks really cool....
NOT!!!! - Catchpen, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This there was ever a good time for a drive-by, this would be it.
- MrFatalistic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I AM THE GOD OF WAR!
- paxindustria, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Full Contact?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiLxanGTwNg
Now that's full contact!
-Pax - Iccanui, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3I love how some people are like " how many virgins do you count " but those " virgins " are who brought you this internet that you spent all of your time on IMing and Text messaging your " cool " friends. Without the "virgins" you wouldnt be on here making fun of people just trying to have a good time, which can be hard to do in life sometimes. They arent hurting anyone so go kick a puppy or whatever else you do for fun and get off OUR lands before the natives get restless and swipe your life and make you cry like a little girl. Though honestly, if you got nothing better to do then post a vid and make fun of nice people not hurting anyone, i have a feeling you owned yourself at life, hence why you need to pick on innocents, so no one else has to even bother. BTW, did i mention those most those geeks will probably grow up to be your bosses and millionaires and get all the hotties they want while your living out the life of Al Bundy? Who is the richest man in the world again? So go play your x-box ( brought to you by the virgins ) some more and log into myspace ( virgins again ) and THINK your someone. Im sure VR will be here soon enough so you can really fake it good. Cause in the REAL world, your a powerless, meaningless, insignificant spec of dust.
Via La Republic ! - imabot, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1This is just funny
What are the chances that their all single? :P - dime, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3get laid.
- wcorman, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0I'm sorry, i can't count that high.
- LucerinRed, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3my theater professor REQUIRED us to participate in a vampire larp, I felt the nerdom ooze through me from EVERY ORAPHACE
- xDibblerx, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Calm down, Francis. If you have an account and post on Digg you are technically a nerd. There are just a lot of nerds in self denial on this site. We're all a big nerd family here. ;)
- bobcrotch, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2I'm sorry but furries are ***** up and nowhere near as weird or nerdy as a social bookmarking site.
- mrlost117, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1I would play this game, but only if I could be the dreaded arrow sniper with invisibility and only if I win the girl...
girl *shudder* -
