Techtite.com's Annual
Golden Otto Awards!

An Annual Feature Article by Techtite
Every entertainment-oriented web
site needs an awards "show" of its own. Welcome to Techtite.com's;
the Golden Ottos!
Why "Golden Ottos?"
Back in 1999, all ratings at Techtite.com were offered via a scale of one to five smiley
icons.
Of course, we couldn't use a "smiley" to rate video games, and
still be taken seriously, so we preferred to call them "Ottos,"
in honor of "Evil Otto," the indestructible "smiley"
from the classic arcade
game Berserk. He was a spherical droid who would pummel your
character --always with a smile!-- if you stayed motionless on one screen
for too long. In time, this ratings system was upgraded to a more "tektite" savvy,
crater-like
icon system of today. Better entertainment, of course, leads to a bigger
impact, right...?
After two years online, the need
arose for an annual awards feature at Techtite.com. The problem: every attempt
to make a "Golden Deep Impact" award (based on Techtite's highest
rating symbol)
were unsuccessful. In the end, it was decided to make a spurious
"statuette" based on our original ratings scheme, leading to
the...Golden Ottos!
Here are additional graphics
for any promotional web site, blog, or message board which may wish to
