I’m coming across a lot of video-game-related videos lately. Oh well. Here are two more for ya. The first is solely Mario-based; the second is a compilation of videogame theme songs. The first is very catchy.

Now this is absolutely insane. The game engine for Crysis, CryENGINE2, is MAD. Just watch the video below to see how intricate it is. Jesus. How far we’ve come in terms of graphical capability is truly amazing. You might want to turn the volume down, unless your ears enjoy deafening, tympanic membrane rape.

Microsoft revealed a new product a while back called Microsoft Surface. Supposedly, it introduces a new way of going about your digital life. And this isn’t just the same thing that’s been plaguing the technological world for the last century or so–oh no, this time, it’s interactive. T_T.
Microsoft states that,

“With Surface, we can actually grab data with our hands, and move information between objects with natural gestures and touch!”

Wow! Just what I need! A new way to get my greasy-ass fingers ALL OVER my electronic device! How can I resist?! They’ve even provided a video to demonstrate this treasure chest of pure innovation:

Who could pass up such a grand invention?!

I can. What the above video really strives to get across is the following:

Oh Microsoft, it’s that thing that you do.

Also, see this. [Thanks Andy]
