ah.....games, the very root of my soul.

I collect games, ALOT of games (not the new generation: xbox, gamecube, ps2). Its my hobby :D Whenever there is an old game that "looks" good on the PC/psx, I buy it. I'm planning a huge html/java based Game center filled with extras, cover scans, and all. This would be the introduction screen.

Items: Pong(atari), Pacman (Arcade), Mushroom (nintendo), Rings (sega), Tetris (dunno), BusterSword (Sony)
I chose the rings to depict sega's influence because its more common, you see a ring, you'll instantly know who it belongs to. The chaos emerald didnt make it because it doesnt make appearances in some of the sonic games.

I was about to model the socom instead of the bustersword because Metal Gear Solid was the first GREATEST game I have ever played, but seeing how FF7 was also a GREAT game, a revolutionary RPG, and made the psx known, I figured I should model the sword instead. Besides, a silenced socom gun with rings and a cute little mushroom, will develop mixed feelings.

Oh, and no triforce/energy-can here, but will appear elsewhere :D

As for the Joystick, I didnt want to model a gamepad because earlier consoles and computers didnt use them. Also the buttons may vary depending on the complexity of the console. A fire and jump button is all you need to get around :D

There's still more to model, do you have any suggestions?

Neat ideas. :) Unfortunately, it's a bit too dark to see very much. Maybe my monitor's too dark, but I can't actually make out anything except for the rings, joystick and mushroom. Also, the rings stand out a lot lot more than anything else, so maybe you need to make them fit in a bit more. I think the joystick is a better idea than a joypad in this pic, purely for compositional reasons. It gives something tall, which adds to the depth of the image. Good choice :)

Anyway, everything looks well modelled. Nice work. :)

Super job! You certainly chose your items well; I recognized each of them, and each brought a warm, fuzzy surge of nostalgia to me. This is a wonderfully imaginative tribute to the world of gaming with the dramatic lighting and the perfectly modeled and rendered items. This is beyond cool.
