Marek Posted November 26, 2006 It's understood that most B-brands in supermarkets try to look as much as A-brands as possible by aping their design. Consider for instance every bottle of ketchup that tries to look like Heinz. In games I thought such blatant copying attempts had stopped (since the days of Great Giana Sisters et al). Actually, not so much. Look what I saw advertised today: Oh so you mean this? Nice font you picked for the logo... *cough* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miffy495 Posted November 27, 2006 Seconded. Those eyes are awesome. Please explain how to make 'em. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marek Posted November 27, 2006 What's perhaps most amusing about that ad is that it says "7.99 a piece", like someone might come in and buy multiple copies... P.S. The eyes are not Mac compatible!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miffy495 Posted November 28, 2006 I saw the naked lady until Dan said otherwise. Now I can see the man... and the lady... It's one of those "Is it a duck or a bunny" kind of illusions, but with more dangly bits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
