I believe the most well known symbol in a video game is the triforce.

What do you think is the most well known symbol in a video game?

Not many non-gamers know what the Triforce is though, i didn't even know until some Zelda fans posted it once.

I'd say any of the popular mainstream games out now are the most known, like the Halo symbol, & the Gears of war skull, My mother knew what it was!

But if you're talking just the gaming community? then we all know what the most well known symbol is in the community!

It's not THE most well known symbol, but it's popular enough.

Triforce for definate, it was the first thing that popped in my mind.

@T0mF5: It's hard to know where the people liking the symbol stops and people being aware its from LoZ starts but yeah I'd agree. Either that or

OR

If that counts

Yeah, it's definitely this. Mario is the most recognizable game character in the world, so symbols commonly associated with him are obviously easily recognized.

any letter or number

It's either Pac-Man or Mario, none of your "My favorite game that came out in like 2002" bullshit.

This might sound silly, but make it red and I will agree with you.

#29 Posted by Blueman (753 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

The Tri force.

#30 Posted by Atomasist (2817 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

The Tetris shapes, and probably Pac-Man.

@T0mF5: I'm sorry, but thats only among Nintendo fans. Most normal gamers wouldn't recognise it.

I would say Pac Man or the sprite of a Space Invader.
