This music video is straight from the archives, dating back to August 2006. Infinite Vision Media brought Suzanne Vega into Second Life for a special performance and interview. Despite setbacks, such as extreme lag from 80-100 people in the sim, and the guitar not fitting her frame properly in-world, she forged on. Among other songs, she sang The Queen and the Soldier, which Tao Takashi commemorated in machinima form. To this day, the emotions evoked by this video still make this blogger tear up.

If you have machinima or movie suggestions from any MMO, please send them to machinima AT massively DOT com, along with any information you might have about them.

Back in the day before they became the soulles monolith that they are today, EA's company slogan was 'Can a video game make you cry?' Watching this video reminded me that the answer is 'Yes, yes they can.'
