I'm showing my true colors as a hopeless dork here, but I was hoping for something about incorporating videogame fashion in real life. Not cosplay! Nothing approaching cosplay mind you... Well, maybe an inch in that direction. I just thought a few suggestions regarding articles of clothing with a vague final fantasy or cyber-punk flavor to them would be cool. I'm probably the only one. Shutting up now.
Actually, one more thing. Are you really saving by spending dough on nonessential accessories? If you really want to shout 'I'm a gamer' without breaking the bank, walk around with your head glued to a PSP or DS whenever possible.
Whenever I see classic game related clothing, such as Asteroids or Pacman, I wonder, who the fuck are they trying to sell this to?
The people who played that stuff when it was new most likely have no interest in wearing it, so it's probably for retards who think wearing a shirt or necklace with some old game on it makes them more credible gamers.
@simply_androoo: I played Pacman in the 80's and I'm 26. I would gladly wear a Pacman t-shirt and I am a "credible" gamer. And even people who werren't alive or didn't follow games at the game are able to like classic games and their meanings.
EXACLY! I love to bring up the $175 Dolce & Gabanna Super Mario Tshirt. I am both a super hardcore gamer AND a total fashionista...and not even I can bring myself to wear it.
One of my good friends used to work at a silk screening company, specifically for shirts. He silk screened himself an atari logo shirt, in all it's 8-bit glory.
@NexusSIX: Eats punks like these for breakfast: No no... You had it right, hence why I congratulated you. :p I see that mistake too often, that's all, so it was nice to see it right for a change. :^)
Gotta love how the three persons quoted go on about being subtle only to get slammed with 11 pictures dipicting obvious nerdy video game clothing. The heels in #6 are the only decent wearable item, though I think the high score on them is overkill.
@Outkastprince: Those earrings look so tacky like something you'd see your grandmother wear if she enjoyed placing abstract Rainbow Coalition art in antique silver framing (which would be the "subtle" take on it for those who don't get the obvious Tetris reference).
@Kobun: I couldn't agree more. And sunshineravioli, the one with the quote about it being "secret," made that giant mario-galaxy-hat monstrosity? The average bear might not get the reference, but he'll sure as hell know you look ridiculous. I was hoping for something like a polo with an embroidered Aperture Science logo on the chest. Now THAT would be subtle.
@Shoopuf: There's this mysterious creature called Woman. They lurk around clothes shops and shoe shops looking for the most expensive and fasionable item they can get their hands on so they can wear it once and one up their fellow women.
Care must be taking when approaching women as they are quick to disgust and may use their toxic spray which is kept in an attached pouch when feeling endangered or annoyed by man.
