League of Legends Necklaces 

I have been playing entirely too much LoL lately, and just like everyone else I hate it. But what I don't hate are these awesome necklaces from Trinket Slot.

Playstation Opens Their Gear Store

Playstation has finally opened their own online store to sell merch based on first party games such as Uncharted and The Last of Us as well as gear emblazoned with Playstation logos and iconography. This store isn’t just a collection of bllack shirts with the cover art slapped on.

Sony launched the Playstation Gear Store on March 11th. This site features many different items that were made specifically for the site including a clicker bust from The Last of Us, a Playstation mug, and a Last of Us backpack. Up until this point, Playstation has asked the help of various sites such as Musterbrand and Insert Coin Clothing to produce merchandise for some of their games. 

The Gear Store sells clothing, accessories, and statues from a variety of their games. Some of the more unusual brands with a presence in the store are Powers (the new show on the Playstation Network) and Jak and Daxter! Some of the more popular items are Ellie’s “ice cream hoodie”, the Limited Edition version of the Art of Uncharted, and pins of characters from The Last of Us. Make sure to check out some of the great items in the Playstation Gear Store.

Nintendo Necklaces and Rings by soulbound

New York designer Kelly Zogheb designed these fantastic gaming-inspiring pireces. She decides on her designs based on her current games and not seasonal trends. Since many of the pieces are made from raw brass, they will age over time giving them unique appearances over time.

Modern Games Get Demakes

Some people, like me, prefer sprites over polygons. Junkboy seems to be in that second camp, as he’s de-made several modern games and replaced the fancy graphics of today with some awesome-looking sprites.

Portal 2 Book Ends

There are a lot of manuals for employees of Aperture Laboratories. But you don’t necessarily have to read them. Being honest here. We used to hire smarter folks, but our death turnover rate is so high that we’ve had to lower our standards to the less-than-literate. But here’s your Employee Manual and the various books on radiation poisoning that the government requires us to give all new hires..
