G&T Photoshop... again?

edited May 2009 in Games and Technology
Little while back we used to have these really fun photoshop contests. I really liked seeing all the work everyone did for them. Why don't we start another one up again?

Some ideas...

-Predicted future titles to game franchises
"Metal Gear Solid 5: Son of the liberty Snake's big outer heaven"
"Duke Nukem Whenever"

-Video games made portable
"Saint's Row DS"
"Fallout 2-go"

-Old game remakes with modern tech

-Posters for movies turned video games & games turned movies

-The next Guitar Hero franchise
"Flute Hero"
"4chan, An-Hero"

    Well what are some ideas for a proposed photoshop contest. Once we get more ideas together we can vote on one and go with it.

    -Make a Bad Game Great/Make a Great Game Suck
    -Everyday Plasmids
    -Make Kiddie Edutainment Disturbing/Predatory
    -Video Game Cameos

    Just some ideas off the top of my head. Maybe they're terrible.

    I still have a bunch of the ones I did for the past photo shop contests. Here are just a few, maybe we could build off of them or think of some other newer ideas.

    Alternate title meanings:

    :|

    There are several G&T Photoshop threads right on page one of the Archives. As well as other Photoshop threads and threads that turned into unofficial Photoshop threads. And all of the above on the second page, and the third page, etc.

    My personal favorite. A shame that so many entries are red X's now.

    I participated in the "Ruin your favorite game" one, creating Final Street Fantasy Fighter II:

    A lot of fun, and I've gotten much better at Photoshop since then (like, actually bought my own copy).

    And we just had a photoshop contest last week, c/o Zephyr_Fate and a free copy of Devil Summoner 2.

    Why don't we do a games tuned movies contest?

    We can even redo some games that have been turned into movies and make them look better.

    Maybe, as long as it isn't 12 pages of screencaps with menus pasted over them. It's funny once, and this pic has used up all the humor.

    Whoever hosts it(?) should think of something to give away, because that offers incentive.

    I would, but the only stuff I have of any worth(that I'd part with) is a Hellgate: London CE and a Where In Time Is Carmen Sandiego? NES set(packaged with an encyclopedia).

    the incentive is to have fun

    prizes bring in bad feelings from the folks who lose, if they think they deserved to win

    So what is keeping someone from just starting a photoshop contest thread with video game reference material? Surely that would fly.

    It would, if a certain individual was interested.
