Virtual reality is doing its best to insert people into games but this game designer shows us that there's nothing like an old school video game mashup. This one-year-old gets one of the coolest gifts a kid can get when he gets virtually dropped into these popular games.
For his son's first birthday proud dad and video game designer Ben Sterling inserted his son's image into a variety of popular video games. You'll see his smiling son Samuel's face in Mario Kart, creating dialogue in Mass Effect and even getting Xbox achievements in Gears of War. This little boy is well traveled in the video game sphere in such a short lifetime we can only imagine what's next for Samuel. Maybe a game named after him?
