Today's most perspective-bending trailer: echochrome in real life
Ever wonder what echochrome would look like in real life? Of course, given the entire game is based on perspective, we'd never be able to enjoy the new reality because we'd always be watching from afar. But then that person would see the real perspective and not benefit from the ... oh, we've gone ahead and confused ourselves.Thankfully you don't have to wrap such conundrums around your head. Just enjoy this Japanese commercial for the game after the break. (Take note of the pretty Mint Green PSP seen at the end.)

Today's most retrospective video: Spore's GDC 2005 unveiling
Although you might be feeling a Spore overload as of late, we thought it'd be fun to take a moment and look back at Spore from GDC 2005, three years ago, and see how the game looked then. After the break, footage from the unveiling. We've also embedded The Powers of Ten, a 1977 short film documentary that reportedly inspired Will Wright to make the game.

Today's hottest animation: Mauvais Role, a villain identity crisis
See if you can spot all the video game references in Mauvais Rôle, an animated French short film, hosted by Boing Boing. The premise is simple: a video game villain is tired of his job and seeks other "employment opportunities." The animation is very well done, as is the voicework.Video embedded after the break. Thoroughly entertaining: make sure you watch the entire video and let's keep track of all the different game references you spot in the comments below.

Today's nerdiest audio: Street Fighter songs
The band offers such tracks as "Chun Li, i'm lovin it," and "There goes Dhalism" for free at its site. (Or visit the MySpace page to play them in-browser and download the whole package as a zip file.) Our verdict: Knockout.
[Thanks, Matt]
Today's most retro recap video: Super Tecmo Bowl XLII
Exactly one year ago, the BBPS gang tried to use Tecmo Bowl to predict the Super Bowl champs. The game simulation picked the Bears (yeah, that was wrong). This year, Madden 08 picked Tom Brady's New England Patriots as the winning time for Super Bowl XLII, but what does Tecmo Bowl say? ArmChairGM ran the simulation.We'll won't spoil the results (that link will), but you can watch the game in the two videos embedded after the break.

Today's most cooperative video: Haze split-screen
Ubisoft's Haze may be afflicted with perpetual delays, but the footage we've seen is still impressive enough to keep us interested. The latest video shows off co-op play, which is promised as LAN, online and split-screen. Though the quality is grainy (so we can't comment on the resolution), the framerate appears assuredly consistent. Video embedded after the break. Haze will be out sometime after April.

Today's most satirical video: Loading.Ready.Run tackles 'Max Effect'
It's been a week since Fox News ran a largely ignorant news segment on the the brief, minor and optional sex scene found in Mass Effect. The crew of Loading.Ready.Run have produced a satire of the news segment for our enjoyment. All the important interview tactics are present, from the gaming supporter being frequently cut off mid-sentence, having his mic turned off, and the host giving loaded questions and descriptions ("full on hardcore porn sex ... with freaky alien chicks"). The acting may not be top-notch, but the snark is. For a summary of events surrounding Mass Effect so far, including head-turning comments by Jack Thompson, check out this post. Video embedded after the break.
[Thanks, Pattmyn]

Today's most familiar video: LOST gameplay footage
It even shows all the essential gameplay needed for a game about Lost -- talking, running and typing numbers! Oh yeah, there's also photography and holding a gun menacingly, but really ... it's all about the numbers. Video, with requisite flashback (or is it flash-forward?), after the break.

Today's most fruit-tastic video: Penny Arcade Adventures 'fruit lover' footage
The video is embedded after the break, although you might want to skip ahead to the battles (we recommend the high resolution version if you want to read the dialog). Also, for those who might have reacted negatively to the previous footage from this week (a good number of commenters expressed dismay), Gabe wrote a post on Penny Arcade expressing his confidence in the title. Sure, there's some obvious bias, but the duo is largely known for its reputation, and we have faith they wouldn't support it if there was a sign of sub-par quality.

Today's handful video: Mario, gesture mash-up
In what looks like a mash-up tech demo, Super Mario Bros. gets a helping hand from a player, with the plumber being guided and lifted by simple gestures. The video makes us hopeful for fun camera-based games to finally take hold. Bring on the crazy, creative games.See the video after the break.

Today's 9-to-5 video: Portal: A day in the Life of a Turret
The video probably rates NSFW for language at most jobs. (School teacher: yes. Lobster fisherman: no.) With the stress that these workers endure, we can forgive them for swearing. See the video after the break.

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 nails the brevity part of wit. Plus, it has Garfield.See the video after the break.

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.) But a Yoda-and-Darth cross-over to Soul Calibur IV? We're not sure if we should feel bad for Star Wars or Soul Calibur.But here's the trailer. Watch it with your splayed fingers covering your eyes after the break. Or drink from the HD faucet at GameTrailers.
