Watch Next-Generation Consoles Battle It out as Giant Robots to Decide the Console War [Video]

In this surprisingly accurate video (the PlayStation 4 is the first on the scene, the Xbox One can’t compete without Master Chief’s help, and the Wii U is an adorable little plaything), Machinima brings you the console war as told by giant robots trying to blow each other up. Really, if you want to explain something to us in simple terms, that’s probably the best method.

It also has a choose your own adventure theme, so you can pick the winner and watch your own ending, much like your dollars will pick the winner of the real war.
