Video Game Art

Video games are not mere time killers. They are albums of sound, aesthetics, animation and narrative.

This community is in appreciation of that. Screenshots, fanart, animations, gameplay clips. It is all welcome here.

The one common thread should be an eye for the aesthetic. This is not a place to discuss mechanics or stats, but to show off simply the artistic, expressed through the video game medium.

  1. All rules of the parent instance apply. That is, sopuli.xyz
  2. Include the name of the game your post is associated with in the post title.
  3. If your post is fanart, include a link to the artist in post body, if you can. You may also ping @[email protected] to have it attempt to find the source for you, and provide it in a comment.
  4. MARK ANY TEXT SPOILERS, as for art, do not post content that outright spoils key moments of a games narrative. Content that can only be understood with the context of having played the game, is ok.
  5. No generative AI art.

GTA2 is still one of my favorites, in the series.

While I haven't played 4/5, 2 is my favourite. I still re-play 2 every few years.

2, and to a lesser extent the first one, had a more darker and gritty tone. I would argue there is even a (mild) cyberpunk vibe to the game.

Agreed about 2 having a cyberpunk feel. The first felt more like the 90s to me.

I remember installing this on my school's network in 2000 and playing multiplayer in the computer lab.
