Video: the orgasmic, ultra-violent history of videogames
Oh, and let's just get this one out of the way, too. You know, normally I might give a video that climaxes with a tri-tone Game Boy Mario humping an orgasmic Lara Croft's leg (bleeding then into invaders and even Pong paddles getting in on the action) a kneejerk pass, but directors, uh.. MUSCLEBEAVER, somehow make it work.
The 'BEAVERS say the animation -- which wraps up the evolution of games into five minutes of insanity effect ultraviolence from Mario to Monkey Island to DOOM to a bucolic Azeroth nightscape -- was worked up as the prologue to a German documentary on World of Warcraft addicts, but no word on whether the full docu ever made it to air.

Very well done, I was starting to think it was just a re-hash of old game assets but this really took off in unexpected directions.

They pretty much had me at "Hey look there's a three headed monkey behind you!" Great video!

Such amazing timing, artistic merging, etc.
If I had this much talent, I wouldn't blow it by falling back on tired baby-stomping, leg humping stuff.
