The video is in pretty bad shape but the act is extremely cool and creative.

Thanks for passing that.

Curtis,

An ASX file is like a shortcut that redirects to the actual video file. It's some crazy Microsoft invention, WiMP will open them just fine.

That was really hilarious! The Japanese always have the best ideas.

I have not attempted to watch this yet because I am on my Mac at the moment, but is this the Japanese Ping-Pong Matrix thingy that's been going around the net like crazy this past week?

My favourite part is when one guy hits the ball really high, and they rotate everything to show him jumping up into the air... good stuff!

Heh, yeah. I seen that a while back, it's circulating around the internet pretty fast now. It was originally called "Matrix: The No budget version." Heh

Oh dear...

...I'm obviously the only person who thought it was a single joke that went on too long. IMO the punchline was showing the guys in black. After that it all seemed a little pointless.

They could've done more before they revealed the guys in black, but that's different.

Sorry, Nigel...I don't see it as a joke at all. Pure creative talent at its best.

Imagine taking something that is originally a computer effect, and reproducing it live. And imagine getting all those people together and saying "Okay, I have an idea...."
