From here: (soul sucking registration required)

"- MTV2 has announced a full series, starting September 18th, for Video Mods, a TV program which showcases custom music videos using video game characters and environments. Apparently, the first episode will showcase Lil Jon's "Get Low" using VU Games' adaptation of Fight Club, Von Bondies "C'mon C'mon", rather bizarrely using Irrational's Tribes: Vengeance, Evanescence's "Everybody's Fool" using characters and environments from Majesco's BloodRayne 2, and Fountains of Wayne's "Stacey's Mom", courtesy of Will Wright and EA's The Sims 2. Other games to be featured in the rest of the series, which had a limited pilot run earlier this year, include Jade Empire and Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude."

Maybe they'll have FF videos sometime. Or not. :)

Are these professionally made, or are these fanworks like some of the GMVs here?

I saw an episode of it last winter (I guess this was the limited pilot run). It was pretty trippy. The one video I saw was done by the folks behind the SSX series; it was both game footage and entirely new animation of the game characters singing along with the song (forget which song it was).

But yeah. It's trippy.

Sounds cool. Too bad we only get regular MTV here in Brazil...

I saw some of the episode that aired last year too. The only thing I have to say about that: Sims version of Outkast's "Hey Ya".

yeah, the sims video to hey ya matched the original video pretty well, but it got boring quick

i also saw a need for speed video to n.e.r.d.'s rock star that had its moments.

i still like amvs more
