Ten Great Pictures of Video Game Street Art Us Gamers Will Enjoy

Over the months of doing these art themed posts, we have seen some amazing things. From things made with recycled CD’s to some incredible crop art. But as I look back on them all I start to see a pattern forming, almost all styles of art have at some point been inspired by Videogames! So with that in mind, I think we need to take a look at some amazing art that is directly inspired by Videogames and see if it is just as good…

Everyone loves Pacman right! Well even if you didn’t like the games you might well know who he is and this Zebra crossing that has been art attacked looks great, even if there is an argument that Pacman ate balls, not lines.

He was a classic Videogame character in the 80’s and early 90’s and so people have been inspired by those said games,  and this amazing Megaman Street art made by ‘Sight’ ‘Wyspr’ and ‘Hone’ is on the streets of Canada and well worth trying to find.
