Play Video Games on Youtube!

Youtube has always been one of the most popular sources of entertainment on the web. People use it for a variety of reasons, such as to watch or create music videos, create vlogs (videoblogs), short films, and even video tutorials. I myself use it to get the latest guitar techniques or learn the newest fingerstyle arrangements and occasionally laugh at the latest lulz at collegehumor. On January 15, 2009 however, user PatrickBoivin took the Youtube experience one step further. He created a channel that allowed you to play videogames! A visit to his Youtube channel allows you play streetfighter (can anyone say Hadouken!?). While the game only allows you to play as one of three characters (either Dhalsim, E. Honda or Guile), the concept of such a game in a video channel was very creative. The game plays sort of like a "choose your own adventure" book except that it's in video format. If your interested in testing your skills just go to the following link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPQ1XrllZmA. If you've always wanted to kick E. Honda in the nuts here's your chance!
