Honestly, I think the Inception one was the best. It was my top pick the moment I saw it. I thought it was a really clever way to tie in the old games with the reboot, and it had me laughing at the end. I think that all of the finalists did a really great job though, and there are so many that deserved a prize. It would have been nice for the finalists who didn't make top three to get a consolation prize.

No need to, you are spot on

Yes, I was. I mentioned that, along with the names of the other judges, on the previous page. Maybe you missed it: http://forums.eidosgames.com/showthr...40#post1694140

There were 2 consolation prizes, actually.

The competition was mainly about the first prize - the poster and mag. A consolation prize went to the runner up. And later we decided to even introduce a second consolation prize for the person in third place

I've merged the public voting thread with this one (and re-opened it).

All information about this competition is now in 1 single thread.

You should!

When we'll hold the next competition (probably some time this month), there may be once again perks for members who are active on this forum. So get involved, discuss, share, etc

Just don't spam.......much

To follow Driber's lead, my voting motivations were as follows (and I'll start with the easiest of them to rank):

1 Point for #3030 (Revenge) - I suppose the caption is semi-amusing, but not enough for this image to appeal to me overall.

10 points for #6177 (Rihanna) - While physical abuse is not funny in of itself (and I would know, being a victim of it back-in-the-day), I can appreciate the sarcastic (and provocative) social commentary this image presents. It took a lot of chutzpah to post and I find the image is just ambiguous enough for some not to "get it". Besides, I've seen ten times worse fun being poked at this issue on late night comedy shows.

Now for the other entries:

2 points for #8443 (Laramon) - Like Driber, I'm also not into what is being referenced here and it just doesn't appeal to me.

3 points for #6834 (Natla) - Had me going for the first two images in the sequence, but in the end, it just didn't deliver.

4 points for #4424 (Cool Water advertisement) - A clever idea but it could've used more "wow factor", IMO. (Probably with text enhancements).

5 points for #6772 (Dopleganger) - Creepy & Cooky!

6 points for #9254 (Food Raider) - Clever!

7 points for #7732 (PETA) - Kudos to more social commentary!

8 points to #1644 (Pizza Hut) Boy, do I sympathize! Have you ever had their Meat Lover's pizza and garlic cheesy bread?

9 points to #7166 (TR Comic) - Absolutely priceless!


Gratz to all the participants and to our deserving winners! It was a pleasure being involved in this process!

The real question is; why are they liked at all?

Oh yes, I went there!

Yeah I could never get into Pokemon. I just don't understand it. But my ex and I did take her kids to see the first Pokemon movie when it came out back in... 04? and that was actually kind of cool. That being said tho, I thought the two Pokemon captions were hilarious. Especially the one where the dude throws the ball over the water and Lara falls. Had me cracking up.

Yeah it's been awhile since I've seen it, but I think what attracted me to and made me dig the first Pokemon flick was how dark it was for a kids movie. If I remember right, there were some pretty heavy themes in it. Plus the kids absolutely loved it and were cheering at the end, so that made it cool to.
