fork banger: Jan 3, 2001

What would we do if hand-held game technology was stuck in the 80s? We would have action packed movie licensed LCD screen games, obviously.

You guys can be extremely funny, and I'm sure you can come up with wittier ideas than I have.

LCD Font is from here and some good quality hand-held game photos can be found here. I know these photoshops could be more time consuming to create than other photoshop threads, but I think a little extra effort always makes a difference. Lets see what you guys can do. :)

Those are simply amazing. Had I not known that those were photoshopped, I would have believed them to be real.

Thank you but I think it's a bit premature to vote until people post photoshops too. :(

Holy crap this idea and fork's execution are absolutely amazing.

I love them both, but I'm not quite sure what's supposed to be happening in the Best Friend's Wedding one.

Basically the movie was quite stupid with the three main characters running around, trying to win the guy's heart in time for the wedding and Julia Roberts is upside-down because she falls down a lot.

But seriously, Forkbanger... stellar execution. Nice work. I'm going to rack my brain and attempt to think of a good idea.

AzureSkys: Apr 27, 2003

when the gameboy first came out i saved up my money for a while, but just didn't quite get enough. christmas came and my mom knew how much i wanted one... but money was quite scarce. in sympathy to my desire and efforts to save she bought me a lcd game.

i felt really bad because it was absolutly horrible. it had these aliens that were rip offs of the Aliens movies that came down from the top in a lame space invaders way. it worked for a week, then broke. my mom lovingly tried to get the 'next best thing to a gameboy' but these lcd things were terrible.

your pictures rock.

Yeah, that surprised me a bit. Only the OP and it went gold. Sure, they were good 'shops and this thread has definite potential, but gold after a single entry??

I've got platinum, so where are all the pms?

Oh man, I'd forgotten all about those games. They were so crappy but I loved them. Great thread, you're full of wacky photoshop ideas.

For the times that you want to go and bust rhymes real slow, i'll appear, slap you on the face, and enjoy the show. Oh, this dope nose.
