Amazing pixel art

skeezama · 2012-09-12T11:41:55+00:00

Ripped from Mark of the Wolves.

SuperSaiyanVigoda · 2012-09-12T14:57:08+00:00

Reminds me of Space Quest

MPair-E · 2012-09-12T14:56:53+00:00

Reminds me of Wabash, my favorite street in Chicago.

DunKrug · 2012-09-12T16:27:04+00:00

I would really dig a film all done in pixels as well as this.

MisterWonka · 2012-09-12T17:41:18+00:00

Isn't all art you see online made of pixels?

moyerr · 2012-09-12T15:50:41+00:00

Is that bum puking by the dumpster?

adanvdo · 2012-09-12T14:18:46+00:00

This reminds me of the SNES game, flashback

RedTiger013 · 2012-09-12T15:36:21+00:00

Looks like infamous.

IAmCassetteKid · 2012-09-12T14:48:46+00:00

Arrrrrrrrrnold, - Hey Arrrrrrrrnold!

GiPes · 2012-09-12T15:41:11+00:00

Seen a compilation of this about 5 minutes ago on /r/gaming and peoples were complaining about the misleading title...

And now just 1 picture of it appears and it reaches the front page...

It is also true that it was /r/gaming so...

remotayy882 · 2012-09-12T08:27:47-07:00

Garou: MoW. Awesome background I miss that game.

prometheus1981 · 2012-09-12T15:04:22+00:00

Leisure Suit Larry - Gang Rape Edition

big-perm · 2012-09-12T15:32:05+00:00

view this while listening to this.

Lore86 · 2012-09-12T08:17:55-07:00

This just needs some '90 videogame music music, like megaman or, something like a Guile theme, but that is kinda obvious because it goes with everything

someweirdguy · 2012-09-12T08:39:04-07:00

off to play Sam and Max

MattindaHat · 2012-09-12T16:47:39+00:00

Very similar to Infamous

coughmann · 2012-09-12T17:32:10+00:00

Reminds me of Gotham City in Batman Begins.

FiresStream · 2012-09-12T18:50:14+00:00

Reminds me abit of Infamous on ps3

ubermex · 2012-09-12T08:37:53-07:00

It looks like the street near your hideout in saint's row 2

cobrasting14 · 2012-09-12T15:38:40+00:00

This truly makes me miss all the fun I had making pixel art in middle school, during the dial-up days. So many Mega Man forums that were more dedicated to the artwork than the actual games; are there any great pixel art communities still around?

Bruce_Wang · 2012-09-12T08:42:57-07:00

Reminds me of Gabriel Knights.

CosmicEngender · 2012-09-12T08:51:54-07:00

Oh, what I would give for games to still be made this way today...

SavageNoble · 2012-09-12T08:53:22-07:00

Every instinct I have is telling me to Lightning Legs that car.

ItscalledCannabis · 2012-09-12T15:54:25+00:00

Amazing pixel art

You know what was more amazing then this? The game it came from

Ceejae · 2012-09-12T08:54:56-07:00

I don't think I've properly appreciated this type of art, seen all the freaking time in the SNES generation, until just this moment. I suppose if you become accustomed to something during your childhood years, you simply take it for granted as if it's just there.

mookler · 2012-09-12T08:56:15-07:00

And the guy getting head behind the dumpster...

statk · 2012-09-12T08:58:47-07:00

Same scene recreated by Noirlac: http://noirlac.tumblr.com/image/25014223865

isevenx · 2012-09-12T09:10:08-07:00

Ugh. Now I want Full Throttle 2 to become a reality.

thepancakebreakfast · 2012-09-12T16:12:16+00:00

Reminds me of Danger (my favorite electro producer), he made two teaser videos for his EP a few years ago One Two

deadlybydsgn · 2012-09-12T09:17:21-07:00

I kept looking for a "Biff's" sign, a la Back to the Future 2.

T_Mucks · 2012-09-12T09:22:46-07:00

I was almost sure this was one of the last frames from one ending of the Blade Runner game... but now I'm questioning everything.

BrokenLink100 · 2012-09-12T09:23:47-07:00

This reminds me of the Violence District in LSD Dream Emulator

hachiwo · 2012-09-12T09:27:20-07:00

餓狼?

blank_generation · 2012-09-12T09:30:25-07:00

Looks a lot like Kensington here in Philly.

lukeman3000 · 2012-09-12T09:31:58-07:00

Metal Slug would like a word

Joao_Platypus · 2012-09-12T09:34:33-07:00

i like the al gore graffiti (mid left)

TheSantaslave · 2012-09-12T09:45:05-07:00

Reminds me of an old DOS game called Normality.

jediassassin37 · 2012-09-12T16:47:21+00:00

Reminds me of Michael Jordan: Chaos in the Windy City.

shilling3 · 2012-09-12T16:50:30+00:00

This reminds me of a 90's computer game

incubated · 2012-09-12T09:54:01-07:00

Freeman's stage from Garou: Mark of the Wolves. One of the best fighting games ever.

ems02606 · 2012-09-12T09:54:22-07:00

This reminds me of 12 Angry Men

break_me_down · 2012-09-12T09:58:35-07:00

This made me so nostalgic just now, srsly.

BlueThundah · 2012-09-12T10:29:30-07:00

What the hell is the dude on the right doing?

fearbork · 2012-09-12T10:35:29-07:00

/r/Cinemagraphs !!! :)

BLT_with_extra_bacon · 2012-09-12T10:37:58-07:00

Reminds me of Hey Arnold

Spaceoff · 2012-09-12T17:38:17+00:00

These animations are not from a game, and aren't gifs, but I expect that people who enjoyed this would find them interesting.

QuestionAnything · 2012-09-12T17:38:21+00:00

This looks like it would be a great setting for a point and click adventure game.

KidCuervo · 2012-09-12T17:45:54+00:00

If you like that, you'll love these . Lots of different pics with sound, you can even adjust the speed of the animations.

ownworldman · 2012-09-12T18:46:38+00:00

Quarantine?

GroovenileDelinquent · 2012-09-12T18:56:09+00:00

The smoke is what gets me.

antifolkhero · 2012-09-12T12:00:27-07:00

Why is "Al Gore" spray painted on the wall?

glorysk87 · 2012-09-12T19:44:38+00:00

Reminds me of Full Throttle

kirizzel · 2012-09-12T13:09:30-07:00

I want to play a game with graphics like this.

tapwater86 · 2012-09-12T13:10:45-07:00

If there were about 1000 people on the street I would say this is the most accurate picture of living in Brooklyn ever.

tojal · 2012-09-12T20:33:35+00:00

Westwood Studios used to have some really really good artists, I'm seriously you guys. Of course, this is from the period before they got buttraped by EA

rockoman100 · 2012-09-12T20:33:52+00:00

You know, once you get enough pixels, its not called pixel art. Its just an animated gif.

JonBanes · 2012-09-12T13:49:22-07:00

Amazing pixel art

BigCheeser · 2012-09-12T13:52:20-07:00

Anyone thinking of streets of rage here? My favourite game.

ejecto · 2012-09-12T13:56:32-07:00

I want to point, and click.

ACanalPanama · 2012-09-12T22:22:21+00:00

I know it's Garou: MOTW but it reminds me of Streets of Rage for the Sega Megadrive.

mikeyzbizzle · 2012-09-12T22:49:10+00:00

Nothing jumped out and scared the living shit out of me, I'm impressed.

WalrusOnTheRocks · 2012-09-12T23:20:43+00:00

Whoa, just had a thought. Isn't all art "pixel art", just with varying degrees of resolution and image size?

toerag135 · 2012-09-12T23:26:16+00:00

Reminds me of being under the JMZ train on Broadway, Williamsburg:

SparDanterGilio · 2012-09-12T16:27:55-07:00

Dont know why, but it reminds me of Final Fight...

boot20 · 2012-09-12T23:42:46+00:00

Isn't that from Normality (a game from the 90s)?

baileyjbarnes · 2012-09-13T00:05:05+00:00

Am i the only one who was reminded of Hey Arnold! when they was this?

letor · 2012-09-13T00:23:27+00:00

looks like just before the runaway scene in theFifthElement

Neilas · 2012-09-13T00:56:25+00:00

Pixel art is one of my favorite game art styles. Shame it isn't used more.

TheMacPhisto · 2012-09-13T00:58:02+00:00

Looks like something out of Streets of Rage.

ratherlargaborigini · 2012-09-13T01:43:25+00:00

this just made me think is there any other good shows out there that are pixel art besides code monkeys

Ntopper · 2012-09-12T18:44:14-07:00

This would be a fantastic live wallpaper or boot animation.

CLASSYclassy · 2012-09-13T02:07:16+00:00

Wow! Haunting! Cool!

serosis · 2012-09-13T02:53:21+00:00

I feel this is the direction Final Fantasy should have gone after VI. Instead of that fucking horrific chibi-fest that was in VII.

plane_snake · 2012-09-13T04:32:58+00:00

Looks like the place where Mickey's gym was located in the Rocky movies.

BufalaMozzarella · 2012-09-13T04:51:19+00:00

Love this. Here's another SNK background I am quite fond of.

yudoit · 2012-09-13T07:05:39+00:00

I spent a lot of time for make a pixel isometric world, interactive, is my hobby on free time, i will finish all the interactions, for now you can see some experiments.

CreaminFreeman · 2012-09-12T07:11:19-07:00

Would be a really nice way to play something like GTA.

criticalnegation · 2012-09-12T08:46:29-07:00

i cried when i realized i couldnt make this my background in vista after researching it for 2 hrs ;_;

shogunkiller · 2012-09-12T09:29:08-07:00

does this remind anyone else of GTA4?

fmyasitch · 2012-09-12T08:44:06-07:00

Funny how this is a "repost" from /v/, do we really need this, reddit?

trpnblies7 · 2012-09-12T09:02:54-07:00

This is not pixel art. It's nice, but it's nowhere close to being pixel art.

mikek3 · 2012-09-12T07:59:31-07:00

/Black Francis approves.

rismail · 2012-09-12T15:57:05+00:00

This is from Garou MOTW, more specifically, Freeman's stage.

Freeman was considered low tier in that game, but I knew a few people who were so goddamn good they'd rape me with every char, including Freeman.

If you like this background, you should check out all the bgs in that game, as well as Last Blade 2. Both those have incredible scenery.

CaptSmithers · 2012-09-12T16:04:47+00:00

Kind of reminds me of Half-life.

SergioSF · 2012-09-12T09:22:50-07:00

Final Fight nostaliga

fullcircle_bflo · 2012-09-12T08:38:46-07:00

Its crazy to me that this is how video games used to be made.

lurker_becomes_lurkd · 2012-09-12T09:27:09-07:00

Isn't all digital art, pixel art?

turnleftdale · 2012-09-12T08:16:57-07:00

Its a video game background shitface.
