Machinima
http://www.machinima.org.uk/
This site aims to put machinima in context, help you watch some of the best stuff that's out there, and get you started in creating in your own films.
Machinima is the art of using a game engine to create film. It started out in the late 90s with Quake, when gamers realised they could capture the game footage, edit it, stick some dialogue in, and end up with an animated film.

How Machinima Works
http://entertainment.howstuffworks.com/machinima.htm
How Machinima Works
Machinima takes its name from the combination of the words machine and cinema -- technically, the word is misspelled, but that's how it was first written and it has stuck.
Machinima filmmakers are called machinimists or machinimators (the two terms are used interchangeably). Machinima films use virtual environments and actors to tell stories. Most of the time, a video game is used to provide the setting, props, costumes and even actors. Machinima can be as simple as an in-game recorded video of a player racing through a level or as complex as a feature film with plot twists and extensive character development.
