Pixeloo returns with the Real Niko Bellic
The artist known as Pixeloo delivers once again with his "real" rendition of Grand Theft Auto IV antihero Niko Bellic. Thankfully, Niko's character design is that of a standard human, so we don't get the abomination of Pixeloo's not-safe-for-sanity "Real Mario."The artist says he did the piece for Official Playstation Magazine UK's latest issue. Another impressive piece by Pixeloo, and unlike Real Mario, the Real Niko won't cause us to wake up screaming for two weeks and shudder every time we even think about the portly plumber.
What would Niko look like in real life?
You may remember a certain professional photoshopper and his "untooning" of Mario. Since then Pixeloo has created realistic images of Homer Simpson, Jessica Rabbit and Family Guy's Stewie. Pixeloo's latest piece was commissioned by Official PlayStation Magazine UK and, as you can see in the image above, shows a true-to-life render of GTA IV protagonist, Niko Bellic.

This picture will be found in the latest issue of Offiical PlayStation Magazine UK, which hit the shelves on July 16th. Now, if you'll excuse us, we have to turn away and look at something else for a while. Niko's piercing eyes are making us a little nervous.
Real Mario now moves, talks, causes nightmares
At the request of our lawyers, we've placed Real Mario after the break to protect children's dreams If you ever wondered why Nintendo didn't enter the high-definition era, all questions were immediately quashed at the first sight of the infamous "Real Mario." Now, in the evolution of the nightmare, an artist named Portix has animated the image. Not only does it move, but it also speaks like Frank the Donnie Darko bunny. We absolve ourselves of restless nights or feelings of panic caused by viewing Real Mario. For those with the fortitude for the stagnant image we've placed it after after the break. Clicking the "read" link will take you face-to-face with the (impressive) abomination.
