Kyoto's Q-Games, the studio behind PixelJunk and a whole host of wonderful titles, is auctioning off a signed ThinkGeek t-shirt for "Play for Japan". The whole PixelJunk staff autographed the shirt!

PixelJunk Shooter 2, the sequel to Q-Games' inventive PlayStation Network game, adds more than just light and acid to the list of new fluidic matter the developer is playing with. Bugs, bubbles and bullet hell also join the updated liquid arsenal.

Few games that I've seen benefit as much from being seen in video, as opposed to in stills, as PixelJunk Shooter. So before reading further, interested parties should watch the following — then read the words that follow.

E3 is Vegas on crack, lights pulsing, base thumping, nunchucks swinging, people dancing for joy to DJ Hero's remix of "Holla Back Girl" (thanks, Activision). With this sensory overload, it becomes easier to see which games stick out, which games are unique.

Despite the inherent goodness of their previous games, Q-Games' upcoming PixelJunk 1-4 was never going to sell with a name that sounded like a Mario Stage. So it's been changed to something more marketable.
