This is actually a tool intended for capturing video tutorials, not specifically tailored for video games, but it can yield decent results (depending on the chosen codec, and your HD and CPU, of course). Like Taksi, it can use pretty much every video codec available system-wide. Unlike Taksi or Fraps, it can't hook a specific application, and instead records a specific portion of the screen. Unlike Taksi, it can record sound.
Note: Unfortunately, this program now comes bundled with numerous adware-type programs that you can't always opt out of, so you may want to think twice about installing it.
