I liked last week’s Rorschach Inkblot Test using Last Resort’s Halo 3 global heatmap because it showed more common interests we all seem to share. There were four different answers that showed up time and time again so I am going to compare and contrast all of those. They are just too awesome to narrow down any further.
Darklotusspartan started off the Star Wars theme with cappy, Grant, Craig, Sgt Nomad Zero, ckamp, www, IcemanX, corinthus, and Ben all showing their love for the same movie as well.
Retinence was the first to notice it resembled a dragon and solidmercury, Geoff Morton, MinkOWar, Beefloafian, Peniamina, Someone, and jugg beaver saw something similar. It took me a while to see this one but I finally did.
Apparently there are also some Metroid and Space Invaders fans amongst us as -S-, Rhayader, Skinnydude, BattleMaster25, ckamp, and discopete all saw something Metroid/alien related.
I initially saw Mister Chief. Momohine, chaelek, and Parsifal did too.
My favorite answer of the bunch was wolfy with “it looks like a storm on a Doppler radar“. LOL … That made me laugh to no end for some reason.
Enough about last week! Let’s move onto this week’s image. I selected Valhalla as this week’s Rorschach Inkblot Test image as it is very unique. So tell me, what do you see when looking at this picture? As always, extra nonexistent points awarded for originality.

OMG I was gonna say that! (She actually looks African to me, with huge hanging earrings. But definitely pregnant, definitely with hands on hips, definitely a bit angry.)

Posted by TheRabbit on January 25, 2008 at 6:44 am
If you look at it from the side, rotating it clockwise, it looks like a crab.
Posted by UnwaryLeo on January 25, 2008 at 6:50 am
A pregnant celebrity icon getting carried away on a stretcher for an abortion. She’s holding her stomach in pain. Doesn’t it happen all too often?
Wait no that looks like the skeletal structure of blog user pic. but with extra pounds.
Posted by -S- on January 25, 2008 at 7:04 am
Wow, light show and Wu, you guys are really creative – it took me like 10 minutes, but i definitely see it!
If you tilt your head to the right *tilts* the redness looks like the character “Horrible Gelatinous Blob” from Futurama (yes, that’s really it’s name lol)
If you tilt your head to the left, the orange/redness reminds me of my Halo Emblem, the Skull King :)

Turn your head to the left(so your looking at the picture sidways) and it looks like a prying mantis head.
Posted by ClandestineMan on January 25, 2008 at 7:40 am
I see three things.
1) It is a brute chieftain who is about to get a sticky grenade to the head.
2) Its a horse running on a grassy field next to a lake as the sun is about to set in the horizon.
3) I see the Yin Yang sign.

It looks like “Slimer” from Ghostbusters who’s going after a cheeseburger (beach base). You can see his out-stretched hands reaching for that ever-allusive cheeseburgery goodness.

I’m seeing a Drone here, hanging sideways on a wall, waiting to carry off one of my marines.
Posted by Rehn on January 25, 2008 at 8:50 am
Hmm, My FIRST thought If you tilt your head to the right it Kinda looks like a Banshee thats been blown up Still burning(Blue plasma spewing and all).
To the Left I see the suicide grunt as well.

Looks to me like a ghost ice skating up a wall.
Though, after reading other people’s comments, I see the pregnant lady as well.

I see the head of a woman with big hoop earrings wearing a cowboy hat. Turn it 90 degrees clockwise, and the big red blotch in the middle becomes the head, while the more diffuse blue & yellow are the hat.
Posted by Elnea on January 25, 2008 at 10:50 am
I see a female superhero, most reminding me of Marvel’s Storm. I always liked the Storm of the 70’s the best. She was the only superhero female that had nice big meaty thighs and a big comfy bosom and looked HOT.
Here, I outlined her for you:

Did anyone ever see that two headed turtle a few months back?
It looks like that.. .a two headed turtle
Posted by Jordan on January 25, 2008 at 12:06 pm
If you rotate it 90 degrees CCW, it looks like the Cthulhu stuffed animal thing that Think Geek sells… or did sell.. or still has, one of the two.
CHUTLHU ARISE!
Posted by Jordan on January 25, 2008 at 12:09 pm
Actually I lied, it sort of looks like Yoda. I mean, look at those ears.
Screw Chtulhu.

Ok, I instantly saw a cowboy riding a horse towards me. He is wearing a cowboy hat, and is very short cowboy. I found a picture to help describe what I am seeing, except imagine the cowboy is really short… maybe its a grunt?

Posted by yayap_the_grunt on January 25, 2008 at 2:35 pm
the small blob to the left definitely looks like a horse, and when turned 90 degrees clockwise, the larger red blob looks like the Great Mighty Poo from Conker’s Bad Fur Day.
Posted by Grant on January 25, 2008 at 2:41 pm
hey, thanks for the death star mention. In keeping with the star wars part, the middle red part, when rotated, looks like Jabba the Hutt. That aside, when I first saw it, I saw a motorcycle.
Posted by falcon011 on January 25, 2008 at 2:48 pm
It looks like Rayman riding a horse….

Holy crap, you’re right. That’s almost exactly its outline, just minus the lower robe….
Why must you taunt us with yet more Marathon references Bungie? :P

What do I see? It’s a pseudo-physical manifestation of the demon that lurks in the darkest reaches of my dreams.
What does it look like? An Orbital Defense Platform (i.e. Cairo Station).
Posted by MinkOWar on January 25, 2008 at 5:38 pm
While saw the pregnant woman immediatly once I read the first post, I first saw and eagle in flight, and then a Mime’s face (the arms of the pregnant woman are the eyes), and he’s making a little “o” with his mouth.
Turn my head left, and I see a rather sad looking raccoon.
The Mime remains the most vivid picture to me.
Posted by lazyclare on January 25, 2008 at 5:39 pm
If you tilt your head to the side, it sorta looks like a warthog with a gunner in the back.
Posted by Twilight Ronin on January 25, 2008 at 6:25 pm
I see Lillymon from Digimon. Just, with her hands on her hips, and her wings folded behind her back.

If you tilt right, I see one of the joke pairs of glasses with a nose and moustache. The head and feet of the pregnant woman would be the eyes and the big red spot in the middle is the nose, then the blue and stuff on bottom is the moustache.
Posted by ZXERO on January 25, 2008 at 7:00 pm
The anomaly currently in discussion is not a heatmap at all.
Careful inspection (and a 90 degree rotation) leads to the undoubtable truth. This is in fact a heat signature picked up by Covenant scanning equipment revealing an enigma almost as terrifying and formidable as the Master Chief himself.

First off, the big blob looks like the head of a grav hammer, the bottom base looks like the head of a normal hammer, the top base looks like an upside down skull, and a blob on the left side looks like a horse.
Posted by Zeuss on January 25, 2008 at 7:32 pm
Tipped 90 degrees counter-clockwise it looks like an egg being fried.
Tipped 90 degrees clockwise it looks a Scarab Tank balancing on top of an inverted cone.
