The best and worst game promo T-shirts

Have you got that in XXXL?

Words: Nathan Irvine, GamesRadar UK

Amongst the games, press releases and bulging envelopes of cash curiously marked '9/10, yeah?' that we receive from publishers each day we also get clothing. Mainly T-shirts of random ill-fitting sizes. And they fall into three categories: Outdoors, Indoors, and Bin.

Outdoors ones don't have massive logos that scream 'I AM A SEXLESS NERD' and to the layman could potentially be a unique tee designed by a Japanese artist. Indoors means it has a logo but provides a snug fit and therefore become's your go-to tee when painting or lounging about the house ill. And Bin is self-explanatory.

Sadly, most of these beauties never make it to public consumption, so in that respect we’re kind of like catwalk models; except marginally better looking. So feast your eyes on this collection of gaming garments that we harvested from our very own wardrobes. Think you’ve got better examples? Then post a link to a pic in the comments below. Onwards...  



 
The logo is so tiny, only those with their face in your chest will see it


 


 
Combine with an unzipped jacket to hide the GTA logo and appear uber-cool




Quote is reference to every pundits view on footballing giant, Peter Crouch


It may be thinner than wet tissue but the stylish WipEout vehicle is geek-chic


  A rare purple number that you can almost guarantee no-one will recognise


 
We'd wear a top with Pip-Boy on even if he was looming large in the middle 

 
Worship the Super Monkey. Worship this Super T-shirt

What about that gawd-awful LittleBigPlanet shirt?
SuperGoomba64  - 8 months 11 days ago 
We need more awesome video game shirts, Not just shirts with a giant logo on it. Something creative.

the haze one was okay i guess. the COD4 one was really gay, though.
SlicedCarrot  - 8 months 11 days ago 
Wow the COD4 shirt was awful, what were they thinking?

I actually like the rabbids and the shirt wasn't that bad. And we do need more videogame shirts that are 'cool', instead of a giant logo with itchy polyester.
