Based on the iconic design of the Terran’s Battlecruiser unit in Starcraft, this LEGO brick piece of sci-fi gaming culture was created by Flickr user Jerac. Seeing the old Battlecruiser again brings back bittersweet memories. So much fun, so much time gone. Were all the wasted hours worth it? Just ask my competitors. Yo’ goin’ down Zerg-y-poo.

You know what they say: home is where the hearth is. Us WoW addicts take the game pretty seriously. Sometimes to the point that the border between fiction and reality starts to blur. For instance, when I’m forced to shop in the women’s clothing section with my girlfriend, I’ve actually tried to hearth my way home. Anything to get out ...

The real magic happens around both the 31 and 45 second mark, where the kid proceeds to simulate sexual intercourse with the unsuspecting console. Now in contrast, hit the jump for the sweetest damn kid ever receiving his Xbox. It will melt your cold heart.

While some might maintain that the Apple logo was designed to bring to mind the Adam and Eve mythos, I had my doubts. For one, the bite is way too smooth for any human mouth to have eaten. The bite only could have been performed by a digitally perfect being. Luckily we now have photographic proof of Mario with his ...

Game Boy isn’t in the Toy Hall of Fame for nothing. Its iconic image strikes feelings of nostalgia in even the most cold-hearted of geeks. Bring those memories everywhere you go with the Game Boy Macbook Cover. Not only does it protect your laptop from any dust and scuffs, but the memories make laptop transportation fun again. Even cooler, you ...

But see, I don’t dare. And I’ll tell you where you screwed up. 25% of the profits go right the Child’s Play charity. Which means 75% still goes to some dude. Look, I’m not feeling very charitable. I can barely put food on the table myself. I’ve been eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches twice a day. So while I’m ...

Featuring everyone from Link to Vault Boy, this Graffiti Wall Mural in Colorado collects some of our favorite gaming characters in one place. Extra points if you can name them all. Link [via]

Mario has gone through quite a bit of clothing throughout the years. Enough that he’s built quite a respectable wardrobe. Designer Glen Brogan created this design as a potential t-shirt entry. You can vote for it over at Splitreason. Not only would I rock it, I’d… well, yeah, I’d pretty much just rock it. Link [via]

If having chubby plumbers jump on your head sounds like a good time, the Goomba-inspired Head Stomp Beanie is the perfect headware for you to rock this winter. Cuz, ya know, it’s not getting any warmer. Or is it? Duhn-duhn-duhn. It’s absolutely frigid out here in Jersey. I hope some of you readers live in a warmer climate. You lucky ...

So what’s even cooler than playing with a scientific calculator? I know, not much. But apparently the magic happens once you gut the calculator’s innards (shame! blasphemy!) and insert, wait for it, a fully-functional Game Boy! Hooray. Rejoice. All is forgiven. FYI, I have no idea what a derivative of a function is. I just thought it sound math-y. Link ...
