Now that hit video game Minecraft is about to become a Lego set, what's next for the growing world of Lego-game crossovers?

Here are a few awesome possibilities, courtesy of stop-motion animator and Lego enthusiast Alex Cobbs, who created this incredibly cool short film to open a video game industry awards presentation held a few weeks ago. It just made its way online, and for that, we are thankful:

Some 15 of 2011's most successful video games get the Lego treatment in the montage, which runs just over three minutes, but took three months to complete. Can you name them all?
