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.
- All rules of the parent instance apply. That is, sopuli.xyz
- Include the name of the game your post is associated with in the post title.
- If your post is fanart, include a link to the artist in post body, if you can. You may also ping @saucechan@ani.social to have it attempt to find the source for you, and provide it in a comment.
- 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.
- No generative AI art.

Yeah, it's probably just because we're used to it, but I feel the same.
If you read it left to right top to bottom it feels like a very exasperated client repeating "No there has to be a P and an S! No not a question mark! No not squiggles!" and so on until the final two.
alternative reality PlayStations
First logo definitely is inspired from the ill fated, Nintendo PlayStation
Is this user created alternative logos?
I believe the story behind them is these were that Sony came up with back in the day to choose from. They were looking for an icon that showed "depth" to represent the 3D graphics.
