Vintage Video Game Art

Your favorite titles get a demake-over.

Imagine if all the beloved video games you enjoy whiling away the day with were overcome with 8 and 16-bit nostalgia and took a retro turn back into the glory days of 2D gaming? Well pixel artist Junkboy (check out his DeviantART page for more gaming icon fun), has done just that for Swedish gaming magazine Level. You can have a look at a few of the images he made in the slideshow above, starting with Guitar Hero, then Left 4 Dead, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Mirror’s Edge, Metroid: Other M, Soul Calibur, and Starcraft. But for the full demake collection head to Geekosystem.com, where they’ve handily juxtaposed the images next to shots of their contemporary equivalents.
