Among other awesome things, video games are a visual medium. Every time we load up a game, we're not only treated to great gameplay, story, music and maybe even some social interaction, but we're also treated to eye candy.

Inspired by our sister site Comics Alliance, we thought it was time to show off the art of video games with a weekly gallery full of fan art inspired by some of our favorite titles. These pieces, culled from different parts of the Internet, stand as testaments to the power that video games have to inspire us into extending the experience and even making our own creations. Because art that begets art is a beautiful thing.

WANT TO CONTRIBUTE?

We're dying to see all the art you've come across or created in honor of your favorite games. If you have an artist or portfolio you'd like us to check out, please submit a link to John-at-ArcadeSushi.com. Additionally, if there are any artists that we've highlighted that wish their works to be removed, please reach out to let us know.

Where possible, please visit these artists’ websites to see more of their work, buy their products or commission an original piece.
