In every profile, you get tonnes of drawings, sketches, in-game shots, and sprite character animations ripped out of the games themselves!!
I'm not sure if this is all done by one guy, but it is one immensely gigantic gallery of great game art. I must say that…
The expectations that games will be moddable and playable online are high for every release these days. So what happens when a popular game doesn't come with the tools to edit it?
