The Gaming Zoo (Beat All Comers)

Grand owls, all! Blathers is a top shout, as is SM64's irritable drop-you-off-the-edge bastard. Muss takes the creativity award this round.

Zero - we have very different tastes in Pogeymanz.

I have mentioned my theory that you're my evil twin, right?

This was filmed really close to me - I remember it doing the rounds on Facebook when it first came out. Also, it reminds of how much I was into Marble Hornets - that's the Slenderman origin found footage thing - and wanted to film something similar for quite some time. Had a script written and everything.

As for video game owls...

Indie Owl:

JRPG Owl:

Robot Owl:

I felt so bad for that second guy in that Owlman video.

Part of me feels bad but at the same time, that "GO AWAY" is one of the funniest soundbites I've ever heard.

I'm very uncomfortable about that Persona owl. Has anybody here played Owlboy? I believe it's Switchbound, and am at least somewhat interested.

Waiting for the Switch like you Balla for that one.

Yeah, I saw a little of it. If it's coming to Switch, colour me interested.

Nope, but it caught my eye from the word go purely on its spritework. I've heard it plays a treat too.

Right! A little late for Christmas, but on request, it's deer. Was originally reindeer-specific, but I'm broadening the remit as I can only think of the one gaming reindeer off the top of my head.

Which is:

Deer-ish:

Light deer:

Clove the Pronghorn?! Bloody hell.

Friendly neighbour deer:

Festive deer:

I can't currently think of a good 3rd deer.

And here are some from a crap game:

That last one is a goat.

I knew that was coming from you or andy

Zero got the correct Best Pokédeer, but we've all forgotten Sawsbuck! Who is pretty cool.  Especially in its winter coa- (interrupted by .gifs)

But you're also currently an owl! My brain doesn't work like that...

Bloody hell yer man Zero was prescient.  Anyway!  It's a drought, and you know what that means: camels!  Not the cigarettes.

Mega-Camel:

Mecha-Camel:

Normal camel:

Struggling a bit here

I think this is a camel?:

Definitely! Although Jay's first is the cutest. Camel week may be a bit tougher than I thought - I'm relying on Jas to find me a Soulsborne camel and a monstrous camel-lizard thing.

I think I may have used this in another week and it's a stretch but......

Spoiler:

Otherwise I can't think of anything.
