Move over, Banksy - this might be the coolest art around today...

Under the direction of Sega and Cook & Becker, five sets of artwork have been designed as tributes to Phantasy Star, Golden Axe, Streets of Rage, Jet Set Radio and Shinobi.

"The last couple of years we've worked successfully with top game developers, artists and publishers to release fantastic editions of concept art and designs of some of the best and artistically interesting video games," said Maarten Brands from Cook & Becker.

"If you go back further in history though, there is less high-resolution material available or images have not been archived etc."

Brands continued: "So we decided to work with the original rights holders and artists working in games and entertainment today - people who grew up with these classics - to make new prints that would capture the feeling of those games.

"A sort of tribute art but officially licensed and made in conjunction and with direction of the rights holders and people on the original teams if they were still there."
