Mamaril.

Michael lives forever in Sanctuary.

A touching tribute.

Michael Mamaril was a young (22) man who died of cancer. 
He loved video games and spent a great deal of his time playing 'Borderlands'

After his death one of his friends Carlo contacted the company. 

The game designers then ensured Michael would live on, albeit in the digital world, forever.

He is now a character in Borderlands 2 and I just met him after playing through the game.. 

i was going to try and write something more but my efforts were clumsy at best.

Please watch this and then tell me video games have no soul.

Thanks to Cantona for telling me about this.
