About my design

by nathanwpyle at gmail.com   
A collaboration with Bio-bot 9000.



The world has never seen an apocalyptic showdown of such epic proportions. Neil Diamond with his sweet soulful melodies takes on the gritty sounds of the immortal Johnny Cash.



Sweet Caroline!

Man in Black!



When the Man Comes Around, you better get ready - because this fight is Coming to America!



For NES and SEGA Genesis. Ages 8 and up.



Thanks to Manos for the template and iRocko for the tee pic.



Thanks for voting!

Go Johnny, Go!



It's good fun, although I'd like to see the characters pixelated. I also reckon some of the younger folk might be googling those names quickly. Well, at least Johnny got a movie lately, so you're alright.

Cash would tear him apart, no question.

I've actually had an idea like that but with Robert Smith and Morrissey.

Kudos to you guys.

I love the 'ring of fire' move but I would have liked to see what kick ass move the 'walk the line' or 'cherry cherry' would have been like XD

I wish there was something higher than a $5... I love this better than any of your designs...

Thanks for that, Dr. Horrible!



As for who wins - I know Johnny Cash is tough and all, but Neil has sold over 100 million albums.



No slouch here.
mike bautista
mike bautista on Jul 10 '09
And Cash is dead, so Diamond pretty much wins by default.

i like the concept, but the 'video game' appearance could have been better.

Yeah, it's up!



Thanks for the comments and votes, guys and girls! Keep em coming!



And some food for thought: are there any movies chronicaling the life of Neil Diamond? and if not, WHY NOT?????!!!

oh oh oh I love it I love it I love it!

the choice of game, the weapons...



but i feel like this has the potential of being absolutely fantastic.. so perhaps if you thought more about the details? i mean, for example, walking the line is a clear jc reference, but he likes guns and bar fights too, A Lot. how about references with more violent imagery?



again, i say these simply cuz i think this tsihrt can be perfect..

Sam makes a great point!



I think those movies usually come after a person has died so they can have maximum sentimental appeal (Ray, Walk the Line, etc.)



But Neil is certainly deserving.

hahaha, nice way of bringing this joke all together from the initial idea. Really nice with the likenesses on the bottom and the ring of fire effect going on as a super move. These guys would wreck shop on Ryu and Ken!



Sweel work fellas.
