5. Karrock and Pryzm from Pryzm Chapter One: The Dark Unicorn
PS2

It's hard to believe that beyond the doors of Games Workshop and their intricately designed table top battlefields that anyone really cares about games that feature characters like mages, wizards and unicorns. The closest most people get to this unintelligible language of the hobbits is watching Lord of the Rings on DVD and waking up just before the credits roll.

Maybe that's a bit harsh, but Pryzm was generic spell casting with a wizard character that looks like something you'd scribble down in 20 seconds to represent a wizard in a game of Pictionary. Not only that, but he's sitting on the most affected of all mythical beasts, the unicorn. To top it all off, it's a girl unicorn.

The artwork is best described as the kind of material used as cover art on those cheaply produced out-of-copyright novels sold for 50 cents in bargain bookshops that have a sideline in selling 'fine art prints' that also predominantly feature unicorns.

Incredibly, the developer (Digital Illusions) now makes the Battlefield series on PC, so they must have seen the error of their ways.
