Since Big Rigs is more So Bad, It's Horrible I suggest a better image for the video game page of So Bad, It's Good. I just don't see even getting that kind of enjoyment out of it.

Maybe use one of the 90s FMV games like Night Trap instead?

I think the current is fine. Big Rigs actually has fans solely due to how hilariously half-assed it is.

[up][up]Make sure you CamelCase the article title when you create a thread. I already fixed it for you, but be more careful in the future.

For reference, you can change the article title in the future with the blue page by the "stale discussions" button at the top of the page.

Would a screencap or two showing a couple of the bugs/flaws/etc. work better?

[down] I know not of this trophy of which you speak.

[up]Maybe, how about the infamous three handled trophy?

Do any of the other SBIG pages have images? This one should definitely be removed regardless, it's the same image as on Big Rigs' page itself.

[up][up] The Advertising, Film, and Fanfic subpages have images, and yes, it is the same image. You may want to check the source code.

I guess I missed checking those, while we're at it the advertising one needs help too, I have no idea what it is.

Which would make it bad advertising, wouldn't it? :P

(It's advertising a con, IIRC. Lampshading one guy chipping in with an overly-Japanese pronunciation of "Gilgamesh" - "Girugameshu". I'm not sure how you could glean that from the image without prior knowledge, though.)

I wonder how many of the images on these pages would be considered JAFAAC.

[up]I think you could bend the rules on the JAFAAC rules here since it's really the only way to give images on this one, but they need to be really (in)famous works that everyone knows about, like the Plan 9 from Outer Space image on the movies page.

Mega Man isn't a bad game.

[up][up]That would just be Contemptible Cover.

The Mega Man cover art is Contemptible Cover. I don't really see this in the trophy pic.

The cover art is usually considered So Bad, It's Good, so I understand why it was suggested.

If it's about the cover art and not the game, would it still fit on the Video Game subpage?

[up]I don't think so, that's it's own trope, Contemptible Cover

[up]That doesn't mean it can't be So Bad, It's Good as well.

I think it could be considered, especially since it demonstrates the idea of So Bad, It's Good when you look at it (Unlike the Big Rigs cover art, which sadly doesn't).

[up]I'm just thinking we need a So Bad, It's Good cover from a game that's also So Bad, It's Good on it's own.
