If you have ever wondered where video games come from, a gorgeous series of photographs by Marc Da Cunha Lopes “shows us the factory work behind the most iconic games of the past few decades.” I would list the specific title each image is captured from but seriously, if you can’t figure it out for yourself you shouldn’t be allowed to call yourself a gamer. Yeah, I went there! Prove your prowess in the comments by outing each game. Assuming you can that is.

These look like the sets from the next Saw movie.
Posted by Monkey_lord on August 18, 2009 at 3:36 pm
The fifth one is the game bricks. cause there are steel balls near the piles of bricks and some more on the floor near the stairs. But I also thought they fifth one might be from saw also.

Geez, you actually figured them all out? All I got was the first one. XD

Here’s some random rambling you don’t care about:
I once went to a gas station, and the sound that the cash register made was the same sound that plays when you collect a ring in the Sonic games.
Posted by Zerowind117 on August 18, 2009 at 12:18 pm
I’ve noticed that too. Suprising haha
Posted by mendicantbias00 on August 18, 2009 at 1:07 pm
Mobil stations right?? I have noticed that too!
Posted by xLAS3RP01NT3Rx on August 18, 2009 at 2:50 pm
Thats not a cash register! Thats a game station!
Duh.
Everyone knows that cashiers do all the math in their head.
They just make it look like they are working.

Shall I pass the chair angel? :P
Posted by AusQB on August 19, 2009 at 12:06 pm
Well before I cheated and just looked at the filenames, I could only get Tetris and Mario. I didn’t even notice the rings in the Sonic one till I looked at the filename. I was fixated on the thing in the middle.
Anyway, they’re awesome.
