Edge magazine has sent out an amazing bonus to current subscribers – a specially-commissioned pixel art poster crammed with videogame references.

The artist was Gary “armyoftrolls” Lucken. And boy does he do great work.

I’ve just spent my lunchtime creating a “grid reference” version, so we can solve the mysteries together. Download link appears below.

The poster jpeg is a bit “low res” – but if you download it, then zoom in (using an image viewer) you should be able to identify most of the characters/machines/levels in the picture..

Here’s a few, to get you started…

N-17 = Link from Legend of Zelda

E-16 = Player’s army from Syndicate

]-06 = Undead from Ghosts n Goblins

[-24 = Bub n Bob from Bubble Symphony/Bubble Bobble

Please add your finds (including grid references) in the comments!

Original story found @ Offworld.

UPDATE: If you feel like giving this a bit of “Digg-loving” or Reddit-loving that would be great.
