Subtle gamer clothes you can wear in public

Wearing this right now

Probably my favourite t-shirt that I own.

I had one of the original N7 hoodies but the arm stripe was a bit too tacky for me and it was this vinyl layer printed on that's faded pretty badly at the elbow. Are the newer ones stitched panels of red and white cloth instead?

I personally like my Fallout hoodies. One has yet though to find anyone who recognizes it (looks way too close to the California Republic shirts):

And the other has had a few recognize it but otherwise you'd think it was just some random design:

One of few subtle ones. I bought this shirt. Only true fans would know and acknowledge it in public.

Id have to agree, I played thru the Last of Us multiple times, and I wouldnt even think twice about that shirt.

A super-fan would likely be the only one to recognize it.

This Uncharted 4 shirt is really good.

Best Buy Canada was giving them away for day one purchases. I did not get one but I wanted to buy one off someone who did
but they declined.

At least you can talk. Who are you?
I have the Diamond Dogs sweater from Insertcoin. I've had someone recognize it in public. They said, "awesome shirt". I really enjoy the MGS line of clothing.

Yeah that collection was great, a little expensive but worth it. Neither the jacket, shirt or jumper looks worn at all.

I bought this when I didn't think the US was going to be exposed to this artwork so much.


It's slightly more white than the picture shows.

I think it looks cool, but I haven't worn it since the game released.
 
Maybe the wrong thread for it but I don't get the whole 'loss' thing. Guys wife had a miscarriage or something, no? Why's it a meme?

Because it's a video game comic and Bum Tickley has always been a huge asshole and it's just so jarringly out of place.

Because it was closely following a comic about the main character making a brick-launching device, and it was soon followed by his talking Xbox robot cracking jokes. This was a wacky Family Guy type comedy with characters that weren't meant to be sympathized with suddenly deciding to go for drama with no build up.

The guy's personality was "petulant asshole that likes video games" and his wife's personality is "angry mom". Their whole romantic arc is that the guy is surprised that he found a woman who likes video games and isn't hideous.

Guy with a really really bad webcomic tried to shoehorn incredibly dark material in so that others would take his self insert seriously.

It's a goofy webcomic about wacky random gamer humor, and suddenly the melodrama injected into it made it unintentionally hilarious through the juxtaposition of 'LOL HOW ABOUT DEM VIDEOGAMES!?' to that exact comic strip. It's ridiculous in that sense.
