I thought the peon was looking at my left and the left tusk was the mouth.


I can't see it

Only a few years ago did I realize that the face is actually looking to the right and looks like and orc with teeth and big tusks. I always thought it was a sort of gay/feminine looking face with the left eye off the left side and kinda a smirk or whatever [image loading]

edit- all my friends saw the left face like I did, total mindfuck when I figured it out lol

PS- That turret guy is still in sc2, except now he has a virtual boy/matrix 3 display to play.

wow... i could not see the real face of the peon forever.. omg thank you :D
even now i still have to concentrate to see it lol

Agahnim from SNES Zelda. Always thought the crown on his head was actually his face and the red jewel in the middle was his mouth open, and he had some kind of green hood over his eyes. Realized when I was much older that his eyes are actually the white slits.

The battlecruiser was messed for me - I guess my monitor was too dark and so I couldn't see the eyes under the visor, so I thought he looked like this:

Haha I used to ask my bro why they made the battlecruiser look so retarded and he's like "wtf are you talking about it looks completely normal." If you lean down really low or angle your monitor you might see it better, because the eyes under the visor disappear when it gets too dark.

LOL! This is what I thought for the first couple years of Starcraft, at least!

Also blown away by the second guy on the back of the missle turret. It at least looks like another dude!


I always thought the shadowy part that covers his eyes were giant sunglasses. I feel like a total moron now.

Hilarious thread and omg the new goliath looks so goofy, they should have just made it look like an awsome cyborg instead of dustin browder but I guess he did so good it was like an award, I just realized he's one of the few guys working there without crazy rocker hair, they need a new unit with hair like a Kiss member lol.

Are you sure? I can see that, but the yellow cap seems more visible.. It's a different hue/color than skin would normally be. Couldn't they just have changed the portrait in SC II to a bald dude?

There is probably a light in the Goliath that is making the top of his head look so light compared to the rest

I always saw upgrades wrong...

Fan

Boxing glove with batman-like flash.

[image loading]

Is this a helmet opening toward the right (I've never seen protoss wear helmets) or a golden protoss face looking to the left... I honestly have no idea.

[image loading]

This is a sword or a dagger with a sheath. Way too fat to be a needle what the hell.

A number 2 pencil.

I think it's just weird shading, but it's a bald guy wearing a pilot mask thing.

^ I always saw the shoulder blade as a lower lip and wondered if the goofy looking alien was some sort of protoss that somehow didn't look like the other ones.

Hehe, seeing the Protoss like that he looks a fair bit like...

[image loading]

Almost a year later, and still think of this everytime I see that protoss dude.
