the girl eating a hamburger
Isn't that Alex the Kidd? I'm not quite sure because I haven't played it in yonks, but I remember there'd be a hamburger waiting for you at the end of every level.

this is awesome, however i think there could have been more games involved somehow..it just seemed like too many characters from a few games were used..

This is pretty good, but I'm going to get picky here by saying that Vault Boy is a mascot, or icon of the Fallout games, not an actual character.

Thats pretty neat. I wonder how long it would have taken him? I loved the pac man ghosts the most. They are just so cute! :D

"What is this? Someone using ACTUAL iconic characters instead of their personal favorites? Blasphemy! They should all be John Marston!"

Funny. I doubted Doomguy would be here, but then I was all :D

Doom Guy! You are not forgotten!

On a side note, did he ever get a name, or is he still Doom Guy?
Well, people did start naming him Flynn Taggart after those novels, but since the novels ended in pure suck I'm not sure if it's used anymore.
Wow I am such a fanboy...

It may surprise you but news doesn't have to be exciting or dramatic. Sometimes it can just be fun. Don't you find this fun?

Except for the Starcraft guy, I knew everyone... Glad Diablo made the list. Well, the girl eating also unknown for me.

And I'm going to say that if there's one thing everyone instantly connects to Fallout is exactly the Vault Boy. He appears in every game, on every occasion.

At first I thought this was a pretty poor excuse for 'art', then I looked at the individual pictures. That painting is of an incredibly good quality! (With the possible exception of the pac-man ghosts, but really, what can you do with a blob of cell shading?) I can't say I honestly approve of the cutesy art style of some of the characters, but all in all I'd definatly rate this as something cool.

That is some great artwork. And I approve of Gordon Freeman and the Heavy.

Though there where a lot of them I couldn't regocnise.

After reading comments, only one I'm in doubt about is the green hairy dude at the bottom right. Who is that? On another note, this would look so good on my wall :)

That's really damn cool. There are so many iconic characters in there, although I reckon doing all four different colours of the PacMan ghosts is cheating slightly.

Haha, yeah. I definitely have to agree with that. Even so, it's a nice bit of art and some of those pictures make me a wee bit nostalgic.
