Tiffany asked about Blender fluids... here's a promising tutorial.

Jeremy asked about a first-person shooter.

Here's the first in a three-part tutorial.

And here's a Blender file that has a ready-made, fairly advanced, template for a FPS shooter.

One more... I don't expect the designers used Blender3D for this project, but it's an example of the kind of thing a 3D animation can do. This is a virtual vaudeville show, with an actor doing the voice and a computer-animated character in a virtual setting going through the motions (very realistically, I might add, including historically researched tapdance routines, and historically accurate ethnic humor).

so basically, I can work today on trying to animate pacman?

Right, although it might be a good idea to make sure you can do a CamStudio screencast, too - just in case you need a refresher about how to set it up.
