1. World Of Warcraft: Cataclysm Cinematic Intro

December the 7th  Blizzard Entertainment will release the newest edition of the immensely popular role playing game: War of Warcraft – Cataclysm. During  the launch campaign of the popular video game, the company will release a gorgeous epic online trailer. In no time the video generated over 4 million views on YouTube, making  headlines on virtually every game site. The game is also discussed on every WoW blog and forum (like JudgeHype, WoWszene and Kotaku).

2. Tweet It : iPads VS iPhones (“Beat It” Spoof)

Since the release of the iPad, discussion arose: which is better the iPhone or iPad? The pantless knights made a funny parody of the Michael Jackson song “Beat it”. The title of this song is “tweet-it”. If it’s going to be a number 1 hit? I don’t think so, but on the video already got over 200,000 views in 4 days. If you like it, have a look at the YouTube Channel.

3. Doritos Presents: ‘Coming to get me’

Ever seen an 360® video on Youtube? Well you can see the 2D version above, but for the full experience go to their Youtube channel. Unfortunately, the number of views are not shown for the 360® video. Earlier this week Paul Braat wrote on ViralBlog how Doritos teamed up with a host of artists around the world for this video, so for more information click here. And don’t forget to visit their website too.

4. Rondaldinho: Backheel Panna

Every football fan can enjoy a lovely panna. Well have a look at this action of Ronaldo (AC Milan) against Chievo. Ronaldinho tricked his opponent several times and showed us a lovely panna with his backheel! Within one week more this video got over 2 million views, so even if you are not a football fan you should have a look. For more tips and tricks of Ronaldinho click here.

5. Fight Back: Alec Baldwin

In this video, Alec Baldwin addresses a previous Fight Back video where actor Jesse Tyler Ferguson announces he will be marrying Alec. While Alec Baldwin is, let’s face it, hilarious, we must point out just how serious his call for contributions is. Fight Back New York has only 13 days to try to replace the anti-equality Sen. Frank Padavan of Queens with his opponent Tony Avella, a strong supporter of equality. A viral filled with sarcasm and despair, that’s supposed to get you thinking. Let’s hope the 100.000 people who watched it started supporting the cause.
