Here’s some crazy Nintendo fanboy scarification body art. The process involves the cutting and peeling of the skin, which I hear doesn’t tickle.

The things people will do for their love of gaming.

I actually have a Space Invader and Invincibility Star tattooed on me. Any of you guys have nerdy tats?

This would look awesome sitting on my desk, but I just don’t have the patience for that sort of shit.

This Game Boy knock-off supposedly boasts a sharper image than the original Game Boy, and it’s just plain sexy. Anybody know where I can score one of these?

Keep your pimp hand strong with one of the most ridiculous casemods ever. It’s actually called the PIMPedno, but I thought PIMPtendo sounded cooler.

This atrocity could be ours at a starting bid of only $50 over at ChaseTheChuckwagon.

The French 8-Bit street artist known as Invader has an exhibition coming up at the Jonathan LeVine Gallery in NYC from Jun 27 thru Jul 25, 2009.

From the gallery’s blog:

“Check out this new video created specifically for our upcoming solo INVADER exhibition, later this month. Time-lapse footage reveals the geometric complexity of of the artist’s incredible process in creating his trademark Rubickubism pieces featured in the show, and will be projected into the gallery space during the exhibition.”

Matthew Borghatti (aka “M@”) created this awesome BioShock belt buckle and the whole process is documented over at Technabob.

While a significant amount of skill obviously went in to making this, and the end result is astounding, it probably would have been cooler as a standalone piece like a magnet or something. I don’t think M@ will be impressing any members of the opposite sex with that thing at all.

Too bad the Etsy seller is charging $55-a-pop for these.

It’s Zoey. She’s nekkid. Her boobies flop and the vajayjay is hangin’ out.

This Left 4 Dead mobile is for sale right now on Etsy for $36. Since I don’t have a crib and the product description says “Not recommended for children,” I’m wondering who this thing’s intended for.

Weirdo gamers who sleep in adult-sized cribs. That’s who.

*Googles prices for adult-sized cribs*

Other awesome mobiles fromt he seller include a Team Fortress Mobile and a Pirates vs Ninjas Mobile.

This Sesamee Street/Street Fighter mashup tee designed by Jared Moraitis for J!NX is freaking excellent. I’m normally not a big fan of J!NX, but this one’s definitely a must-have. I’m especially diggin’ the cookies flying outta’ Cookie Monster’s mouth. Amazing.

Get yours here.

ARhrrr! is a game currently being developed by Georgia Tech’s Augmented Environments Lab using an Nvidia Tegra devkit.

Basically, you use the handheld device as the game’s screen AND controller. So, when you point the camera at your kitchen table, the game shows zombies on your table and you have to shoot them. Of course, you need a special placemat for this to work - this allows a 3D city to be constructed. You can even place Skittles on the map and they act as powerups that can be activated on the Tegra’s touch screen.

This is some pretty cool tech, but I couldn’t imagine myself running around my coffee table and shooting zombies. Maybe if they turned this sort of thing into the new version of a board game, I could see it being fun for parties and family night. Think about it: you get a box with like 4 cheap touch screen thingies and some maps, then other companies can release new games sold in stores as maps with a code to download the game onto the handhelds.

Or someone could just make porn games with it.

The hilarious ad for Dragon Age Origins pretty much sums up my first impressions of the game. Sure, at first glance it looks like just another nerdy D&D-ish game, but then you realize that it’s actually pretty badass.

There’s another trailer after the jump if you wanna’ see how truly badass this game really is. More »

The good news: Attack of the Show co-host Olivia Munn will be on the July/August 2009 cover of Playboy.

There’s a small handful of girls that my girlfriend will let me cheat on her with. The top three on the list would have to be Megan Fox, Scarlet Johanson, and Olivia Munn. Since chances are slim that I’ll ever meet any of those girls in real life and get them intoxicated enough to take advantage of me, the best I can hope for are red carpet nip slips,  sex tapes, and the slight possibility that they’ll appear nude in Playboy.

The bad news: Unfortunately, Olivia Munn WILL NOT be going nude.

This is actually kind of a big deal. There are only a handful of girls who have had the honor of being on the cover of Playboy without being naked inside. While this is all fine an dandy and must be an honor for Miss Munn,this doesn’t help out the droves of nerds such as myself who just wanna’ see a hot chick get naked.

Either way, good for you, Olivia! Even if you did ever decide to take your clothes off for money, I wouldn’t think any less of you. And if you ever do decide to go nude for a magazine in the future, at least be a champ about it by doing a Hustler or Penthouse spread. And I do mean spread.
