I think I might have made this suggestion a while back, but didn't exactly explain myself very well. Here's an example where on the left you have the concept artwork of Epic Mickey which was stunning, and then on the right you have the bland, mediocre in-game graphics.

Nice, it gets my support.

I'd prefer just the top two frames, without the reacting Mickeys.

Kind of looks like a meme, which isn't exactly good. Not sure how well just the top frames do, but probably better, at least.

It's probably more a critique of the art design, but I think Mickey's second reaction looks rather weird with the whites of his eyes missing. It almost looks more like a mole than an iris.

[up] That threw me the first time I looked at it...took me a few seconds to realize it was his eye.

Here's just the comparison without any reaction.

[up]That's good; maybe needs some kind of border between the two.

[up] Agreed, a thin white line between them will help a lot.

I'm just nitpicking here but could you cut the IGN logo?

The problem I have with the current suggestion is that the second part isn't even in the final product.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?

[up] Having never played it, I'll take your word for that, but I think the contrast between the two is sufficient to get the point across.

Will need a caption to work for me.

I count 4 solid [tup]s and one [tup] conditional on a caption...I'd say we need some more consensus.

I personally think it works, but as pointed out by 20 a good caption will help.
