I just realized there are no RPGs represented up there. Maybe because noteworthy moments are obscured my text. But surely, you can fire up an emulator and clip out the scene from FFVI where Celes throws the bouquet off the balcony. We may not all be able to agree on which FF is better, but surely we can all agree that the opera scene was a stroke of brilliance.
Also, Duck Hunt, any Zelda game, and maybe Lost Viking.
Also lets get some fucking history up there. One of the rotating logos needs to incorperate that ninja guy I remember from the old blue+white layout. Does anybody still have that around?
The final battle with Kefka would work, too. Unless we're still worried about spoiling a 15-year old game.
Also, the Altered Beast logo seems so out of place. Did we just need to have one shitty game represented or what?
Yeah, I was thinking about how most of the games represented are really new. The old ones are only SNES, except for Castlevania. Surely, you can throw Maniac Mansion in there, Wibble.
I can guarantee you Nick will support the Maniac Mansion idea.
Who does Craig have to sleep with to get some Skies representation? I mean, seriously

You're great Wibble.
I appreciate the logos, it definitely adds something to the site. I think they're a great addition.
A few suggestions here, don't feel as if I'm asking for all these. Just noteworthy games that I think would fit the motif:
Chrono Trigger
Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Halo 1/2/3
Super Mario 64
Vectorman
And my upset pick:
California Games - AXLE FOLEY!!!
Might as well round out the 2008 tributes with a Gears and a Resistance logo eh?
Personally, I am in love with the Mega Man 9 one.
But I'd also support a Chrono Trigger and a FF6 one. Ooo what about a Command & Conquer one? PC gaming isn't quite represented.
I can guarantee you Nick will support the Maniac Mansion idea.
Who does Craig have to sleep with to get some Skies representation? I mean, seriously
*whistles*
I think every one of those should remain except for the Altered Beast one. I've always felt that was the weakest link of the bunch.
I think the original 'Wing Commander' would do great.
Replace Altered Beast with something like Golden Axe.
Also,
my own list of suggestions;
Shinobi III,
Crusader: No Remorse
Hitman
Dynamite Heady
Star Fox
Any Metroid aside from the craptastic first two games
Devil May Cry
Thunder Force IV
Bangai-O
Radiant Silvergun
GTA-II or GTA-London
Skyblazer
Jungle-Strike
Virtua Fighter 1 or Tekken 2. . .don't matter, something EARLY-3D without getting obnoxiously ugly.
Shadow Hearts
Fallout (one of the title screens/box shots would do best).
If I had to pick one series that is not represented it would be Zelda or Mario. If I had to pick one game it would be Super Mario Bros. 3 (when you first come off the ground to fly in 1-3) and A Link to the Past or maybe Wind Waker. Those would be the best to capture from, imo.
Altered Beast is fantastic because of how ridiculous it is.
Some ultra-muscley superman kicking his leg up at nothing while some other guy gets his head eaten by some blue ball monster?
Love it.
