I already know what one looks like. But I admit, ours aren't nearly as impressive as theirs.

I've never seen it get that dark. His camera must be messed up.

Been there done that.

BTW you should have just posted the link in the Great Picture Thread instead of making a new thread.

Eh, I'm just trying to promote the video thread so everyone can find the good videos in one place instead of having to hunt down a dozen different threads which all sink like the titanic.

Hmm, sandstorms look a lot like pop-up advertising.

Beats me why they haven't yet made one of those horrendously bad 'disaster movies' about a sandstorm.

Or maybe they have and it wasn't bad enough. Either way, I think Hollywood needs to cash in on this.

Increase the size of your Attachments

I Medal of Honor Breakthrough the opening battle has you fighting through enemy lines and a sandstorm.

Some of the Germans in the game are wearing gas masks to help them see and breath through all the sand.

Can you suffocate in one of those storms?

The last 30 seconds are the most specatcular. It's when the sandstorm approaches very close, and then the cameraman is in. It lets you see the difference between in and out of the sandstorm.
