The saddest thing I know....

http://www.bluepalmcl.com/

This is just fucking ridiculous, and I hope it fails miserably, because I don't want to see my favorite hobby whored out in cheaply-made shirts and stuff like it was the goddamn Gap or something.
:axe: :Hangman: :smt076 :smt097 :snipe: :smt027

I don't know about any of you guys, but half the time my "fashionable gaming apparel" is either my underwear on account of just getting out of bed, or some hideous outfit consisting of shorts that would have been at home in the '80s, some brightly colored ugly tshirt, and my trusty sombrero.

Yeah the usual mainstream-whoring-out-hype has started again :Hangman:

(though I would love to get my hands on an official promo shirt for any console but the game.com)

lol. I wear shirts like that. Well not really. I only wear shirts that show off that I'm a hardcore gamer, like Nintendo's You Lose orange shirt with the Gomba infront and a black shirt that says "Don't make me go Zelda on you" although it should be Link, not Zelda.

Anyway, I thought about making a few shirts for myself that have some game graphics on it. One of them is to have the logo of Truxton on the front shirt and on the back will show a row of the different colored ships.

MY second shirt idea will say Hardcore Gamer. Period.

If you're talking about the ones with the DuckHunt original NES cover art on it, I can get them here if you're interested. Have your people contact my people.

Gameskins is awesome (I have the Gauntlet Food shirt) - their shirts are great quality, and they're not trying to be some hip new pop culture icon, either. Thinkgeek has some good ones too, but they are mainly geared towards the PC end of things.

lame

At least hot topic was better at making gaming shirts, although your right, it sucks they're horeing classic gaming like this(mostly go to that place for band or clearance rack shirts). I'm guilty of this slightly as I got the keep it real nintendo controller wristband. Haven't even worn it in a long time.

Yeh I want to get the shirt that has the molecule for Caffeine. That's their number one selling product.

There are actually some good "designer" game T-shirts. Zara had a couple, but they were very subtle. Someone would have to stop and stare at it to tell that it was a game shirt.

I still want an "All your base are belong to us" t-shirt. No one would get it, but I'd love wearing it :).
