Easilly I have to say Helm's "The Spartan" is my all-time favorite.  I've never been so blown away by use of color and style.

I have to agree with Argyle here. While it's not by far the best, most revolutionary or even most eye-pleasing piece of pixel art out there, it has a raw, close connection to our medium. The fact that it uses just these basic colours and was made by "one of us" makes it a powerful statement towards pixel art as an art form that isn't ready to die.

Yeah on dA, the pixel art section in the forum is like dead o___o;

And it's hard finding a community of people who do pixel art. I finally found this forum. xD

Not sure if game screenshots count, but I always loved the art in Simon the Sorcerer (http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/simon-the-sorcerer/screenshots/gameShotId,2386/).

As far as newer stuff goes, I really like these EGA faces (http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/18304.htm#) by ptoing.

That thread quickly went almost exclusively for game screenshots and art.

It would be interesting if this thread continued without any game related art...

I don't quite see what's wrong with having game art as a favorite. It's just as much pixel art as the next thing.
