By my count;
All civilians need the civilian win badge
Cole and Zell need the not guilty badge
Joseph Snapple needs the dirty cop badge

Do I count for first blood as I got myself fuck killed as red lady before during the first night? Since technically I didnt kill myself or suicide. It was Ants who did the deed as i willingly lept into his furry arms.

Okay so we're definitely going to need badges for the winner of each console in the Great Video Game Draft. I was thinking a badge of the system's controller for each console would look really good.

TD made the good point that once we hit Playstations, this gets a little muddied.

Maybe a badge of the system makes more sense?

Gotcha. My thoughts for the PlayStation ones would lean towards the system logo, but technically… we could probably pull off the controllers as well, using the gray controller for PSX, the original PS2 controller with a length of cord hanging off, the original PS3 controller without a cord, the PS4 controller with the touchpad, and that goddamn super white one for the PS5. Y’all’s call, though. Console logos are also an option, since they’re a bit easier to distinguish, but they’re bland comparatively.

I’m working on the August update thread now, but when I’m done I’ll get to work on adding those new badges… starting with NES since that’s what y’all are on now.

I'm thinking with the size of the badges, those 3 would all look pretty similar though, right?

That’s my concern… but we won’t really know until I throw some up there side by side to see how different they look.

PS1 - standard Grey
PS2 - dual shock with the thumbsticks
PS3 - black controller
PS4 - this is where I am stumped

PS4 has the visible touchpad and different button orientation, but that MAY be tricky to spot on a 32x32 badge.

Isn't PS2 controller black too?

Correct.

Damn playstation and their consistency!
Should've gone the Nintendo Controller route.

That’s the #1 reason for my brand loyalty over the years… with the #2 reason being the original X-Box controller and N64 controller back in the 90’s.

@VashTheStampede and @TD, I just edited these into my post. What do y’all think?

You can fallback to a shittier option of just having a PS logo.

A slightly squished/condensed version of those. The OG logo looks nice though.

Personally it's as I thought - 2, 3, and 4 look far too similar in my opinion.

That’s exactly why I tried to hunt down ones with the cord and slightly askew to differentiate them, but I don’t think it’ll hold up well shrunk or on the dark style.

Yeah, I think the actual consoles might be the play.

It'd be nice to have stylized ones (like those pixelized ones I linked earlier) that make them look more uniform but that's probably too much.

I gotchu. I’m gonna see what I can do about tracking them all down individually.

That was another idea, but I’m afraid of running into the same problem as the controllers.

PS4 controller could have the blue LED illumination on the top as an outline. God knows that light was bright enough

Valid point, and fuck that LED.

Alright, this is where I’m at now.

Apparently from PS4 onward they stopped feeling like making pixel art readily available on Google…

Controllers on the other hand seem to be a little easier to find, but still not exactly what we need since I can’t seem to find a decent png for the PS5…

Those consoles are perfect

Right?! I’m so fucking frustrated that I can’t find a decent PS4/5 one, because those and the newer X-Box consoles are tricky as hell to find a decent quality version of. I’ve already started grabbing other consoles, they’re gonna be a lot easier.

…yeah, we’re gonna go with placeholders that way I can have them there and ordered properly for when we have the correct images.

Lemme know if I missed anything. I didn’t include Sega Saturn or DreamCast, if y’all plan on including those I can add them as well, but I don’t recall them having a large catalog.
