Hang-On Shirt Bundled With Class, Not Master System

What better way to show your love for the world's finest pack-in game than with these Super Hang-On shirts, the latest in King of Games' "Get Ready" line of Sega tees. It comes in a fetching shade of black, like you can see above, but also in white, should you be the type to make it all the way through a ribs night without a stain. As with all KoG tees, expect small sizes, hefty prices and limited availability, so don't dilly-dally.

Take A Look At Uniqlo's New MGS4 Shirts

Announced during the MGS4 party earlier today, Konami have teamed up with Japanese label Uniqlo to release a range of snazzy new MGS shirts. There are six designs to choose from, with each design coming in two colours, for a grand total of twelve shirts you can view on the internet, dream of buying then - whether due to lack of finances or lack of Japanese language skills - never buy.

After This, I Don't Want My GTA IV Collector's Edition Anymore

Nope. Look, the lock-box, the artbook, they were all nice, but if I'd known that pre-ordering the game via Rockstar's own online store would get me this sweet Burger Shot t-shirt instead, I wouldn't have bothered with that whole midnight launch business. Reader Sulk sends these pics of his shirt, which while being far too large for his thin, Canadian frame is still an ideal size for framing and eternal admiration. More »

More Hidden Streetwear In GTA IV

Just as a quick follow-up to last night's post, it looks like Rockstar have collaborated with a lot more than just RockersNYC when clothing the denizens of Liberty City. Players have since spotted some of the game's NPCs sporting LRG's "Dead Serious" hoodies, which means the game's probably full of this kind of unannounced, niche-targeted advertising. Sneaky, and no doubt equal parts fascinating to marketing students and streetwear fashionistas alike.

You Know You Want Official Devil May Cry Cardigans

The Devil May Cry series has been a lotta things, but masculine is not one of them. Something about all those exposed chests and red coats and wonderful haircuts. So it's poignant that the official Devil May Cry range of menswear - due to be released in Japan next month - will forgo hoodies and caps in favour of gear including a couple of exquisite cardigans and leather-pocketed polo shirts. With tiny, elegant belts attached, of course. They'll come in two styles (Dante and Nero), and at a price only the most fashion-conscious Capcom aficionado could bear to pay, with the polos priced at USD$75 and the cardigans at USD$105 (Nero) and USD$125 (Dante). Looks a lot, but for the convenience of having a belt on your shirt, it's totally worth it.

Target Dump Indie Gaming Shirts

Hope you rushed in and bought some of those indie gaming shirts while you could, because no sooner do we start heaping praise upon Target for selling them than we hear they've pulled the shirts. Because they weren't selling. One of the developers whose game was featured has told Boing-Boing Gadgets:

[EGP T-shirts] sold slightly less then what Target views as good enough to keep in store. But [the distributors] are going to try the line out at places like Hot Topic and Urban Outfitters in the coming months. We will see how it goes.

Hot Topic? Surely things haven't gotten that dire, have they?

So Your Girl Needs A New Shirt?

Say there's a special someone in your life. That special someone is partial to the ol' video gaming. Thing is, her wardrobe...it's kinda ratty. One part of you finds that endearing - in a cute, bohemian kinda way - the other half just thinks it's kinda ratty. That other half may want to buy her a new shirt. One that both gets her a new shirt and manages to cram a shitload of gaming controllers (including the Boomerang!) into its design. If so, you really can't go past this one, from FIFTY24SF. You can get it at the link below (search for FIFTY24SF in women's shirts). More »

The King Of Games Mario Kart Jersey

Titled "Super Mario Kart Grand Champion" the baseball jersey will go on sale March 28th to visitors of the "Nintendo Museum" in the Hankyu department store in Osaka.

Ghost Rider

I link Threadless a lot but come on, the wee, struggling graphic designers that submit their stuff there deserve those prizes. And we need better game shirts, always.

Space Invaders Invade Dress Shirts

When Florian wears dress shirts (heck, when he wears clothes), he, she, it always makes sure to cover his/her/its freakishly pale body with puffy pirate shirts that require cuff links. What's Florian currently wearing in Kotaku Tower? Hardened chewing gum and a paperclip. If dear Flor ever thinks of springing from something "better," we do recommend these rad sterling silver Space Invaders ones on Etsy at US $35 for a set. Brian Ashcraft More »

Alice in Marioland

I have several Threadless tees, and while their "girly shirts" are really not that girly (actual shape might be cool), I can forego a decent fit for the incredible artwork that goes into many of the designs. More »
