2008 in Gaming – Through the Eyes of MS Paint

In years past, NeoGAF has done their favorite moments in gaming, using only MS Paint to show you. Looking back at 2008 brings us some of the coolest moments, great memories that can look amusing to just plain epic, even when in Paint. I purposely left out the names of the games as half the fun is guessing (but if you can’t figure it out, right click and hit properties to see the file name where I put the game).

The thread starter set the bar pretty damn high by bringing us two awesome entries:

A few games have such a basic design that it makes it easy to do in Paint:

I was kind of forced to keep these last three bundled together, as if I posted them first, they would have put everything else to shame too quickly. All coming from the same artist:

Quite a few games made the thread without being part of the 2008 line up, here is just a taste:

Now quickly, head over and lurk in this thread to see even more great work by the good folks at GAF (and if you want to see some amusing MS Paints, but not so great in the looks department, head over to the 1UP boards).
