Title: Best side art?
Post by: mozzer on October 24, 2004, 11:33:36 am

In your opinion which game had the best artwork?


Mine would be Gravitar.

That dude in the bottom corner is badass!

I have always been a fan of the Galaga sideart, but then I'm a huge fan of the whole game.

It's gotta be Tempest...

...or Asteroids...

...or Centipede...

...well, we all know it's gotta be an early Atari cab.

I think Universal cabs are the coolest. Really dark art, and also some really cool bezel styles that look 3D.
Universals Cosmic Alien is my favorite side art.

Atari games in general.

Kangaroo and Crystal Castles are personal favorites.

Are we talking classics? Or all-time?

I thought the first Killer Instinct had great sideart.
