There’s a really cool programming contest going on to create an Artificial Intelligence bot that can play Super Mario World. The current front-runner is this guy, and he’s done incredibly well so far. The maps that are used are from the “Infinite Mario” project, so they are randomly generated to make things fair. I am definitely going to follow this project, because it’s really awesome watching Mario run by at inhumanly fast and accurate speeds.

This made me kinda sad, actually…the magic of one of the greatest games of all time has really been lost to the new generation. Also, these guys reak of Canadian accents.
