first person 3D super mario bros game by freddie wongSuper Mario Bros. has earned a place as a true classic of the platform game genre, but what if it were a first-person game instead, a la Quake or Halo?

Oh well, you'll have to settle for a sweet video. Check it out below, and watch the 2D display in the corner to see how the first-person version corresponds to the classic game. Oh, and scope out the Xbox Live-style achievements. Nice!
