Nintendo has, smartly, mostly ignored Hollywood following 1993's Super Mario Bros. movie. So we don't have a Zelda movie. Many people think, smartly, that this is a good thing, because there's every chance a Hollywood adaptation would be awful.

The kids at Corridor Digital certainly know their glitches, because the ones shown in this vid aren't some abstract hiccups that nobody ever faces. They're based, pretty literally in some cases, on the kind of things that bring nightmares into the dreams of small children.

While we wait for a feature-length movie about Assassin's Creed, the kids at Corridor Digital have put together this five-minute clip for Assassin's Creed III that is way better than it has any right to be.

Check out this awesome Minecraft fan film, courtesy the folks at Corridor Digital. The special effects are excellent. Kinda cheesy. But mostly excellent.

Corridor Digital's video "Sentry Sabotage" explores very well known themes of treachery within Team Fortress 2 but it does so with unbelievable execution. I knew how this would end before I finished it the first time and I've already watched it a dozen times more.

Fed up with his shitty flip phone's inability to play a game of Angry Birds, one man turns to the most incendiary of video game cliches, the exploding barrel, to scratch his itch for destruction. This is the game of Angry Barrels.
