Who knew a tattoo could actually prevent you from getting laid.

Can someone tell me what I'm looking at exactly? It looks like someone's crotch and legs.

Exactly! I lolled when some sony fanboy said that these new, sony exclusive characters are going to have such an impact and long term lasting appeal as these old Nintendo characters.

Is there a gang sign associated with "Nintendo 4 Lyfe"? I'm trying too hard to picture one in my mind.

Today in Joystiq the console wars reached an epic level of intensity with several members of the SDF and sony fanboys in general getting owned, humilated, and scorned by other games due to the debacle that is HAZE.
I wonder what tomorrow will bring...

wow, so it seems you get excited about that kind of stuff?...damn, not even the worst trolls are at that level...
You remind of this other kid, CaptainAmericaX or something like that...hopefully you don't think that the Folding project is worthless, right?

hey Curtis, I'm not pissed about that, its cool, what I did get pissed over was the fact that many of the people that complained about Haze's faults overlooked those same faults in other games, either way, what other people say doesn't change my perspective of Haze.
Ask nando, all he could complain about with me was that the character design was horrible...and that he doesn't like the yellow colors on the helmet...
Oh, and for the record, Curtis, you should check ThePremierAssassin's comment history, he/she hates Sony with passion, and unlike Fernando (believe it or not), he hates Sony for no reason...

I wasn't aware that Fernando had a reason to hate Sony.

Yesterday was the best day to read online.
Reading all the screaming sony fans "oh it doesn't matter I'm still buying it!". Well done, you're better than me. I don't spend money on low rated products.

I can understand a discreet 8-bit variation Mario, Super Mushroom, Link, a Metroid and what have you... But that's officially taking it too far. Ew.
On the other hand, some people have really nice "full" body tattoos. They can pull them off very well, and on the occasion can do it in a manner that actually increases their sexy factor. It's only ever accomplished with a certain artistry that can't be found in such hideous works of noisy, vibrant, nausea-inducing stencil art from famous character art poses.

I am sure that tat will get Runnen Late laid many times over......not that he needs the help.

Sorry, but I think having the balls to do this makes you cooler than overcompensating for your own lack of balls and ridiculing. As nerdy as full video game sleeves can be, they really are one of the more honest forms of tattoo expression, and you know that person has to be fun to talk to. What's so great about getting a full sleeve of "normal" tats, like snakes or flowers anyway?

On the subject of tat's, however, I do think it takes more guts to get something like this as opposed to something like a serpent or skulls or my personal favorite (not)...flames. All the same, the sheer amount of characters on there makes me worry. :-p

Well, he'll have Kranky Kong instead of DK. Kirby will have taken the powers of something old. Link will be Old Old Link (And by that time the time-travelling LoZ series may have come up with such a character). Mario will look more "mature", finally. And so on.

I smoke to many mowers and drink way to much to live past the age of 35, so don't worry about it.

Ugh. Nice colors, and points for originality, but Kirby? Kid Icarus? Peach? Necktie wearing Donkey Kong? I'd rather just learn to knit one of those 1-Up scarves or something.
P.S. Are those cutoff jorts?
