The 1st Person Mario to End All 1st Person Marios
Freddie Wong is well known amongst VFX wannabees, and really, anyone who’s been on the internet for the past couple years will likely have run into his stuff. If the subject of his latest video isn’t guns, it’s games and today’s brand new one takes on an old concept with a fresh look: Super Mario Bros from the first person perspective.
Plenty of people have done this before to varying degrees of success, but this has so much Win written all over it, from a rockin’ new soundtrack to the funny little achievements (“Pole Dancer” for reaching the flag at the end) that it screams “WATCH ME NOW!!”.
So…uh… watch it….now:

FYI- you posted this article before Kotaku. So well done. :)
Yeah, thanks. I’m kinda proud to say that I was in the first 300 to view it.
