get out and play.......does stop motion ever get old?



Nokia has put together an awesome site to promote a new video game feature NGage via a website called get out and play. While the site loads you play an analog looking version of the classic game breakout or arkanoid.
It then leads to an amazing stop motion video that pays homage to the classic nokia game snake and features a cardboard robot villain as well as a really awesome couple of frames dedicated to people running into a wall.

The most innovative part of the site is the interactive video game which is basically a modern version of breakout or arkanoid but instead of dots, lines and a ball you get to control a "human bar" and knock a human into a wall of humans via stop motion animation. It's not the most high tech game ever by any means but it's a cool concept. NOTE... the game happens halfway through the entire video where 1,000 people make the worlds longest snake using stop motion. Pretty awesome.
