    Hey, that's my Okami pumpkin (#24). Thanks for featuring it on your list and thanks everyone for your comments on it =). I didn't know that others liked my work and that it would be considered good enough to be put on a top pumpkin list. I also did a Haunter pumpkin, but it's not very good: http://opalosprey.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=48#/d4geqk6 Thanks again =)

    Wow! I can't believe my pumpkin made the cut! That's just mindblowing! :D I carved the Master Chief one back in 2007, I think it's #43 in the pictures. Took second place in the halo.bungie.org "Guilt O' Lantern" contest. Totally awesome to see it here! :) Made my day.

    I wish I could make my pumkins look that cool. Those guys who carved them should consider doing that for money this time of year. You can't tell me that there are not people who would have payed $100+ for some of those pumkins.

    These pictures are just hemorrhaging win. Raz had to be my favorite, but oregon trail is definitely the funniest.

    Lol Reggie pumpkin.

    I am disappointed, I thought this list would have actually been about the best pumpkins in games, but I suppose I still liked the ICO, phoenix wright and charizard ones. But maybe I could start my own list of the 50 best pumpkins in video games, here goes 1-5: the pumpkins in suburbia level in tony hawks pro skater 3 6: the ummmm....... uhhhhh...... Ok I have no more ideas. So I suppose my list should be the top 5 pumpkins in gaming and unfortunately I squished them all.

    Banjo-Kazooie pumpkin transformation? I'm definitely not allowing those stupid pumpkin head enemies from FF7 onto a 'Best Pumpkins' list. They suck.

    That's exactly what popped in my head when I read the title. Oh well, this is awesome too. The Zelda and Portal ones are great, I'm really impressed with the detail in some of them like the Okami one, the one of Abe, and of course a pumpkin so beautiful it rivals ICO.

    ...and I thought mine looked good...

    The Ico pumpkin was fantastic. If I had seen that picture out of context, I don't think I would have noticed it was on a pumpkin. All the rest of them were good too, and some of them were also pretty fantastic. I definitely was most impressed by the Ico pumpkin however.

  • AshLynx - October 30, 2012 2:44 p.m.

    NO! That is clearly a Rapidash! lol I think the Bastion, Charizard, Red Dead Redemption, Sam & Max, and ICO ones impressed me the most (Bastion the most most though)

  • ObliqueZombie - October 30, 2012 1:32 p.m.

    ... how does one create these?

  • Blastoise - October 30, 2012 1:12 p.m.

    These are amazing. They gotta be done with some kinda laser tool right?

  • db1331 - October 30, 2012 1:11 p.m.

    Okami and SotC are the standouts for me.

  • EAC73 - October 30, 2012 12:28 p.m.

    i liked the bastion one the best, but i also love how most of them look like their ripped from virtual boy games

  • ACGUY - October 30, 2012 12:26 p.m.

    That's not PONYTA it's Rapidash but great pics none the less.

  • JarkayColt - October 30, 2012 12:22 p.m.

    These are amazing! I thought the Bastion and Kirby ones were particularly well-lit, but most of the others were incredible too! Actually proper laughed at the Reggie one. Oh, and, just a heads up; the "Ponyta" is actually a Rapidash.

  • someonetgsn - October 30, 2012 12:09 p.m.

    Some of these are more awesome than I could have imagined.
