Lol…I hate IE. Every time I work on a design for it, I try to will it out of existence. It just hasn’t happened yet

Nice one – we did something similar but put the sausage in with sauce (tomato ketchup) and the kids made them themselves. went down v well indeed.

I’m also not a fan of the “Tiger” logo. That solution seems really premature….I think it could have been developed just a bit more.

I never really noticed Lost Planet’s ‘V’ A before. I guess it was just sorta static like that.

The new one does feel a lot more active, in that it looks like something that would flicker or move.

Excellent point out of one of the many things CAPCOM does! For years, CAPCOM has been the most inspiring group of artists out there for me and their logos are also all very reflective of the content of the game.

All the excellent titles you’ve pointed out are all my favorite CAPCOM titles!! Devil May Cry 1, 3 and 4 are my favorite out of that franchise. The logos reflect the content of the game, it’s a hack and slash as a fun character that embodies smooth animations and corny lines that date back to old, fun action-fantasy movies.

Darkstalkers is probably some of the most extreme title logos they’ve done and yet it isn’t ugly. It’s very fitting for the title, that fighting game is one of the most aggressive fighting games out there with a visual flair that even outdo Devil May Cry and Resident Evil’s most extreme stages… and it’s animated almost as beautifully as Street Fighter 3rd Strike. Phoenix Wright is also one of the loudest yet fun designs! The title logo ALSO reflects it.

What’s still most amazing for me is how timeless 3rd Strike is. 3rd Strike’s logo says class and timeless. The sparks aren’t annoying and distracting, it actually serves as a nice contrast and backlighting to the solid logo choice. Just like how the game is still the most timeless thing I’ve ever seen… It’s a pity how the SF4 logo also reflects the game itself… All flash and hype with very loud aesthetics that for me betray what the franchise have had so far…

Good post! I was surprised to find this randomly off the internet… Glad a game developing company out there is in love with CAPCOM THE RIGHT WAY!!

I’m glad they’re finally putting the old girl down.
