Ultimate Fandom Contest 3: Video Games

After a successful last run with Ultimate Fandom Contest 2: Book Characters AND Ultimate Fandom Contest: Avatar: TLA, I'm pleased to present Ultimate Fandom Contest 3: Video Games! Read on for the details:

The Breakdown

Instead of creating a list of popular games for you to choose from, I'm going to let you guys have free reign on the games you use, I only ask that the game you choose was primarily a game first, or better known as the game. (I.E. There is a Harry Potter game, but it is known more for the books, so that is ineligible.)

The Categories

There will be TWO categories you can submit entries to!

Characters
- Your entry focuses on the character(s) in the game and not so much on the environment though working on a background/setting is encouraged.
(Example: A good game for characters would be Super Smash Bros.)

Environment
- Your entry focuses on the environment/setting of the game and does not focus on the characters, though they may be present. Please ensure if characters are present that you minimize their importance!
You can submit to BOTH categories, but you can only win in one!
(Example: A good game for environment would be Myst or Riven.)

The Rules

1.) Drawing/Painting/Sculpture/Photomanips/Crafts/etc. No writing/photographs. Make sure you have proper permissions for photomanips, and that you credit accordingly.

2.) FOUR entries per person MAXIMUM! That's right! You can do up to FOUR this time! However, you can only submit TWO per category (2 for characters, 2 for environment)

3.) Any gaming console game is eligible as well as computer games!

4.) ALL submissions must have the following in the description of the deviation:
-Ultimate Fandom Contest 3: Video Games (a link to this article if you feel generous)
- The name of the game you chose
- Whether it is for Environment or Character
- A small description of why you chose that character or setting

5.) Submit ALL pieces to contests & projects -> contests -> 2008 -> Ultimate fandom 3: video games

6.) All submissions must follow dA guidelines!
