2012 Olympics logo debuts to whalesong

Eye Of The Beholder...

1) Has any logo for anything ever been received well? I guess people just don't get logos...

2) Anyone who interprets this logo as depicting a sex act performed by a child - even a cartoon child - needs to get some therapy! Maybe El-Reg can pass your details on to the relevant authorities...

3) The 0 in the 2012 reminds me a bit of the old Newham Council logo in shape and colour - so not totally irrelevant since that's the borough where the games will be based.

Make games more realistic...

I've always thought that games should be more realistic - ie when you get shot dead you can't play the game anymore, ever. Or if you're shot and wounded then you have to wait 3 months before you can play again & then only with one arm / leg or blind or whatever. That way the game play would be much more true to life without people running round shooting stuff up willy-nilly.

Anybody remember how much more satifying it was to complete one of the old-skool platform games before they started letting you save your progress? Going back to the begining each time you made a mistake certainly instilled some caution when it came to judging your next move...
