I'm partial to Spaghetti Cat, but I'm not sure why.

Ty's beaker, followed by Matt with Pence escaping Prince Fielder.

Matt gets my vote for best traditional Fark type photoshop job, and Trey gets the vote for funniest.

Rueben gets my vote.

I liked them all, but subnuclear's flying sliding doors made me laugh the most, followed closely by Matt's Pencezilla moment.  And for some reason, spagetti cat made me laugh, so those would be my top three.

I don't think a person figures out Spaghetti Cat.  I think you just acknowledge that it *is* Spaghetti Cat.

I just thought it was a race horse rolling over in its grave....


and I liked it.

I have to go for BeakerPence and Pitfall Pence. I'm a simple-minded person...
It's my estimation that every man ever got a statue made of 'em was one kinda sombitch or another.

Pitfall was an Activision game for many different platforms.  Including Colecovision.

I thought the best were from Reuben, Ty and Matt.  It's hard to pick just one, but I'll have to go with Matt's Fark.

My buddy had an intellivision, I had an Odyssey II. 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intellivision
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnavox_Odyssey%C2%B2

Best baseball game ever to me was intellivision baseball.  The Odyssey football (stick figures) was fun.

Then we got a ColecoVision.  It was really cool in that it had diferent "Joy" sticks.  The boxing game and the baseball games were quite fun.

I was not aware that pitfall was on anything other that the intellivision, but I have been wrong before.

Ty's Beaker is my new desktop background--he gets my vote. They're all great, though.

Now that y'all've explained it to me...  Gotta go with basement horse (followed by Beaker and Pitfall).  Nice job all!
In the end, my dissolution with the game of baseball will not be a result of any loss of love for the game, rather from the realization that I can no longer bear the anger its supposed stewards cause to be built up in my soul. -Lee (01/08/2013)

I couldn't figure it out. I finally decided it must be some sort of nod to Barbaro (this being Kentucky Derby weekend and all). Yes, my brain works in strange ways.

I got a kick out of pretty much all of them. Ty's Beeker and Matt's Godzilla were especially excellent. By the way, was there no JackAstro entry??
