Do you notice the nice colourful icons used to represent the trophies earned in a majority of current PS3 games? If you look properly, you’ll find that they have the potential for being wonderful works of art.

Take for example, Bayonetta. The game may look like crap on the PS3 but its stained-glass inspired trophy icons are certainly eye-catching:

One of my favourites are the bunch of trophy icons from Fallout 3. Here, the iconic Fallout 3..err..icon, is rendered in cartoon style and at the same time easily conveying the meaning of each trophy:

While the two games above are great examples of trophy icon art, there are some games that are particularly lazy on the trophy art. Case in point, God of War III. The game uses the same icon rendered in several different colours. The same goes for Heavy Rain as well.

So, having shown examples of trophy art, which do you prefer? The interesting ones like Bayonetta or  or the boring ones?
