Whether it be folks making movies based on their games, performing a rap about one’s love for gaming, creating an animated short, or dressing up as their favorite characters and accosting strangers on the street… There’s many way to show’s one gaming colors, and the following are the eleven best examples. More than anything else, kids, if you’re going to try this at home, make sure you have a camera handy.

The game loving dudes from SoCal built a name for themselves for their brilliant parodies of games, which often involved innocent bystanders. And this one is easily one of their best yet.

If only video game characters were real. There’s no doubt that watching them washed up and living together under the same roof, for the sake of the almighty dollar, would be pretty much the best thing ever.

His name is Lil B and he’s fast becoming the biggest thing on the underground rap circuit, and will no doubt make the mainstream sooner or later. Check out the song that put him on many maps earlier this year (like here at Heavy).

Nintendo recently laid out an official timeline for all its Zelda games, which is nice and all, but it still isn’t as satisfying at the solution offered above.
Like seriously, I could care less about Rockstar’s idea of L.A. Just let me keep their take on NYC, along with regular updates from the modding community.

For those bored to death of classic games being re-envisioned as a live action flick from X decade, just know that this one kicks off with the Orion Pictures Release opener. Nuff said?

In rare instances, a person will enjoy a particular character so much, like Ghost from Modern Warfare 2 in this particular case, that they will take total ownership of said personality. And the results can sometimes be quite amazing.

That’s Marvil vs. Capkom 3 btw, and it has nothing to do with her move-set. On the positive side, would you look at those cans!

Remember all that time spent on the clock tower? Guess what; prepare to feel as if you truly did waste all your time and energy.

It’s amazing how much cooler the Fonz looks, all pixelated, huh? And it’s sad that we never did get a legit Mork & Mindy video game. Okay, maybe not.
http://heavy.com/games/games-videos/games-video/2011/08/portal-no-escape/
Countless fan flicks, based upon games, hit the scene this year, many of them damn good. But the best one is unquestionably the one based upon Portal. Note the names of those involved; you’ll be seeing them soon enough.
