Today's handful video: Mario, gesture mash-up

Today's 9-to-5 video: Portal: A day in the Life of a Turret
Did you hear the one about the two Portal security guns? Smooth Few Films, creator of The Leet World, takes boring office banter to Portal's timecard workers -- the security turrets.

Today's Monday-is-over video: Garfield, Final Fantasy mash-up
The videomakers of Fatal Farm spoof another Garfield cartoon in the final segment of the Lasagna Cat series. What begins as a faithful retelling of an old -- dare we say, "classic" -- Garfield strip turns into a Final Fantasy riff. Sure, we've seen longer Final Fantasy homages, but this quick clip ...
Today's crossover video: Soul Calibur Star Wars
We hoped it was a joke, but trailers don't lie, do they? Sure, the best part of that one Star Wars was when Yoda flipped out and killed people. (Actually, it was probably the best part of all three.)

Today's Summer hype video: Prototype
The marketing machine is beginning to crank out information advertising advermation about this Summer's Prototype. This heavily produced video pulls off the "casual chat with developers" look well.

Today's most nerdcore video: Blizzard employee raps for community
What's the best approach for telling the community your patch isn't coming out this year? If you're Blizzard, you can try responding to a YouTube rant about an absent WarCraft III patch. And you can do it by trying to rap. We applaud the effort, but the "rhyming" verses make us cringe. Video ...
Today's most 'dah' holiday video: a Raving Rabbids Christmas
It's been about 363 days since we last highlighted this video, but it's Christmas and we feel it's best to be festive, and Michel Ancel's Raving Rabbids are terrific way to celebrate the holidays. It's time to get into the egg nog with the most eloquent lagomorphs around. For the holiday lovers out ...
Today's angriest viral video: Judd Apatow, Rock Band and backlash
Okay, so the point of the Funny Or Die-hosted video "Backlash" isn't gaming-centric, per se, but it does center around various Judd Apatow alum and cast members of Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story playing the PlayStation 3 version of Rock Band together. Watch Justin Long sing, Jonah and Hill and Paul ...
Today's most bribe-filled video: NiGHTS Japan 'Toy Promo' TV ad
Dear Japanese consumers, Here is a television commercial for our upcoming Nintendo Wii title NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams.
