Gamer Swag (Not a Limited Edition Pokemon Card)

Ballin. The game industry is full of it. Sony wins a format war with what? It's ballin blu-ray support. Nintendo makes gaming more mainstream than ever; ballin. The ballers at Microsoft's X-box 360 offer hardcore gaming delight.

It's straight ballin across the board. And the fashion industry is taking notice. No, not just Hot Topic. Game swagger hits a new benchmark with these kicks from Nike:
These NES inspired Nike Air Max are set to hit the streets soon. The colors resonate strong from Nintendo's first console outing and the start (hopefully select) accents add even more floss to the overall pallet. No word on price yet, but it'll likely cost you some serious cake.

A little further off the radar, kicks producer Globe has thrown together a nice looking Gears of War set of shoes.


They'll set you back $80, but just tell your significant other that you bought some shoes and not: "These really awesome shoes based on X-box 360's blockbuster first person shooter Gears of War! (Catching Breath) Star Trek!"
