Even if you can't make it out to Seattle for the Penny Arcade Expo this weekend, you can show some solidarity with the new selection of Penny Arcade gear that's now available on the Xbox Live Marketplace for a buck per shirt. In addition to the stars' trademark looks, you'll also find some clothing inspired by the strip's secondary characters.
Also, just FYI, we came up with a pretty hilarious gag about PAX standing for Penny Arcade eXploitation that we weren't able to work in. All apologies.
[Thanks, Jimmcq]

A dark alley... like Crime Alley? But you're here to protect us from those shady dealings, aren't you Dark Wayne?

No, but you're right, gouging is a good way of putting it. You should have mentioned that to me before I posted my post and I would have used that word instead... geez.

There are games which use the Avatars (most recently GH5). So, no, it's not *completely* useless. Just mostly useless.

oh yes, those make the purchase even worthwhile, while I'm at it, I should buy Dirt 2, so i can see my avatar hanging off the rear view mirror. Too bad, i don't play those driving games that way XD

I'll help. If we run this thread up to 3 or 4 posts, we'll about equal the value of clothing for an avatar that does nothing but stand in your face and urge you to put clothing on it.

These look great, I can't wait to pick up the shirts.

thats the shirt i really wanted. i wonder if the weapons restrictions have anything to do with the classy lady tee not coming out. i doubt it tho, halo 3 has crossed swords and theres lil guns and knives hangin off other items on the marketplace..

I'm sure that I'll get voted into oblivion but this here just confirms what I've been feeling for some time now. PA is officially sucking the proverbial Microsoft teet. They have lost their way. A moment of silence for a fallen former comrade.
