The sheer awesomeness of this short film speaks for itself. But incase you need any persuasion to give it a look, it depicts an invasion of New York city by old-school video games. Fittingly, Pac-Man haunts the subway, Frogger plays in traffic and in a post 9/11 gesture, Space Invaders destroy sky-scrapers. Unfortunately this is exactly the kind of thing which will be ripped off by some “inspiring” Sony Brevia commercial. Thankfully, at the moment we can view it simply as a refreshing, 8-bit spin on the old New York apocalypse scenario.
