I mentioned in a previous post that Just One More Game was running an Internet-wide challenge to get people to catch every reference in the epic Edge Pixel Poster.  Well the results are in from around the Internet and Gabe has posted a follow-up with the results.  Be sure to check it out and see if you can’t contribute to the challenge and catch some games that they’ve missed so far!

More on the Edge Magazine bonus poster.  Gabe McGrath of Just One More Game, a gaming blog that has been added to my RSS reader after giving it a once over just now, has dissected the poster into individual grids that are easier to sift through for information.  Readers are invited to save the grid version, zoom in with the magic of their favorite photo editing software, and try to identify all of the gaming references to be found therein and post their findings in the comments section.  Happy hunting!

Subscribers to Edge Magazine got a bonus in the form of an epic pixel art poster by Gary Lucken that quite possibly references almost every video game ever created:

A scaled down version of one of the most meticulously detailed pieces of pixel art ever.

A slightly higher res version can be found here.  Just glancing through the poster I can see references to DOOM, Waverace 64, Mario 64, Megaman, Streetfighter, Parappa, Final Fantasy, and a whole slew of other video games.  An avid retro gamer could probably spend weeks going on a Where’s Waldoesque hunt through this work of genius trying to track down all of the references.  Unfortunately Edge hasn’t provided a true high res version of the poster yet, the one linked above is only 1024×723, but perhaps they’ll release one now that it’s gaining some good old fashioned Internet popularity.
