}}'''The Shadowplayer Show''' is a sketch comedy series featuring many characters, such as the retired bounty hunter known as Shadowplayer. This series introduced the [[Protocol Robots]] and [[Louie Vargas]], who would be given their own spinoff series in the form of the ''[[Guard Duty]]'' side series ''[[WarGames]]''. Most episodes are stop-motion animated with customized builds from the ''BIONICLE'' toyline, though there are some episodes using the ''[[Halo]]'' video games via machinima.
}}'''BattleDudes''' is the informal name for various comedy sketches machinimated within the ''[[Halo]]'' video games. These sketches introduced [[Red]], [[Green]], [[Blue]], [[Yellow]], and a younger [[Ignacio Dominguez]], who would be given their own spinoff series in the form of ''[[WarGames]]''. Because of this, ''BattleDudes'' can be seen as a precursor to ''WarGames''.

BattleDudes is the informal name for various comedy sketches machinimated within the Halo video games. These sketches introduced Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, and a younger Ignacio Dominguez, who would be given their own spinoff series in the form of WarGames.
