If Video Game Power-Ups Existed in Everyday Life
|
So we were sitting in traffic and thinking about how much we'd like to throw one of those blue shells from Mario Kart at the other drivers, and got to thinking about how useful some other video game power-ups would be in real life. We asked you to photoshop some examples of video game items, power-ups, weapons, etc being used in everyday life, and offered $50 to the best. The winner is below, but first the runners-up: #30.
#29.
#28.
#27.
#26.
#25. #24.
#23.
#22.
#21.
#20.
#19.
#18.
#17. #16.
#15.
#14.
#13.
#12. #11. #10.
#9. #8.
#7.
#6.
#5.
#4.
#3. #2.
And the winner is...
Congrats, SkinJob. You win money. Want in on this? You'll have another chance. This week's Photoshop contest theme is: Pretty straightforward. We'd prefer photoshops of the people DOING the jobs as opposed to simple job listings. Post entries in the forums. Got an idea for a future Cracked photoshop contest? Let us know. |

man i would love #1
#2 is funny, but the pong doesn6t mace seence
hey I want my stealth camo of MGS
Actually, I thought #18 was a Space Invaders reference...
For anyone that cares, Sonicscream2 is wrong, 19 is tienamen square in China. The guy wasn't crushed, but he was arrested.
Vietcong couldn't afford tanks anyawy.
#18 is the smokescreen powerup from Spyhunter for the NES.
But see, Borat, #1 is clever, cuz it's making fun of the fact that video game characters always carry like a dozen weapons. It's okay that you didn't get it, though. We understand.
Actually, he's facing down Chinese tanks during the Tianamen square protests around 1990. Easy mistake, since all asians look alike, especially when they are inside tanks.
The invincible guy in #19 stared down five Viet-Cong tanks in vietnam during the war. Nobody knows what happened to him.
Either #19 (funny as hell!) or #6 should have won!
IMO, the winning one wasn't that good...
I think Cracked got it right this time, and I love 'em all.
But I don't get #18. Can somebody explain?
Number 19 is hilarious. It wins by a landslide.
Honestly i thought 30 was the most creative and funny
lame lame lame. worst photoshop yet. there are other video games besides halo mario kart and portal. the first one should of been number 1!!!
19 ftw and also what is 16 referencing, totally went over my head
Funny story about that, CrotchSlap. I remember, the morning before my grandfathers funeral, I had tried to squash my grief by playing some Super Mario World, which had been my 'comfort zone' game of choice back then. To make a short story shorter, we had to bury grandma the next week, since she had a fatal stroke when she saw me trying to jam green mushrooms down my grandpas throat.
Remember #28 next time you go to a funeral.
6 had the best photoshop work by far. But honestly my fave is all the way up at 28. What happened there?
Damnit, for a second I thought the chainsaw in #1 said 'Binford' on it. And if your tools say Binford, GET OUT OF THE HOUSE, TOOLS AREN"T SUPPOSED TO TALK TO YOU!

I don't think number one should've been the winner although all of them were pretty great.
