No breaking news here. You try writing about games in early December! No, instead, we have a really great Flickr gallery from revengingangel. It's called The Adventures of Mario and Luigi, and details the day-to-day life of the famous brothers. It's not what you think, though. Forget "work." This is what they do in their downtime.
The images and little captions are great, but what is impressive is the sheer number of images in this set. The photography started in July of last year, leading all the way up to last month. There are now 379 images spread over 7 pages. The brothers go to the laundromat, get gas, go to the post office, go to the park, and so much more.
There are some really fantastic shots here. I really like psycho Mario and solo Luigi. Some of the Mario Kart ones are also great. The photo nerd in me noticed that the images were originally taken on a Canon Rebel XTi, but then graduated to an EOS 5D Mark II. With either camera, these are great.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
This is awesome.
TehPeanut - I'm not a writer at all and I'll admit that the description part I just pull out of my behind and even I know it's just utter crap. I love taking the photos, but I DREAD uploading them and putting a description for them, but thank you for the comment.
