When Two Video Games Love Each Other Very Much

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.

    • Wizzel says:

      These look like the sets from the next Saw movie.

    • Monkey_lord says:

      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.

    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.

    • Zerowind117 says:

      I’ve noticed that too. Suprising haha

    • Mobil stations right?? I have noticed that too!

      • 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.

    I cheated and read the image file names.

    • Lincoln says:

    • Ragingterror says:

      Ah, so somebody else did notice.

    • bs angel says:

      • DeepCee says:

        Shall I pass the chair angel? :P

  16. AusQB says:

    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.
