Some Halloween treats at deviantART

We like to argue about whether or not games are art (see the article from David Thomas where he bluntly and emphatically declares that games are not art in his appropriately titled article Games Are Not Art), but while we may never come to a consensus on that here’s something that - there’s absolutely no doubt - is in fact art: pumpkins carved with some of our favorite video games and video game characters.

Carved and photographed for the deviantART crowd, user ceemde has created some masterful Halloween creations featuring Sam & Max, Crusader: No Remorse, Plants vs. Zombies (my favorite of the bunch), Shadow of the Colossus and Pipboy from Fallout. Beautiful.

Check out all these wonderful creations out at deviantART. Thanks to Game Culture for the tip.
