  • It’s here! Our Summer 2010 collection, “Wizards ‘n Warriors,” has finally been summoned to the Meat Bun online store, filled with homages to some of our favorite magic users and 8-bit heroes from some of our all-time favorite video games.

    Whether your weapon of choice is a whip, as in the grisly Beheaded, an axe, as wielded by the adorably vengeful Thunderhead, or even a Ninjawarrior‘s kunai, the new line has your warrior needs covered. On the magical side, if you prefer to turn your enemies into eggplants with an ancient Greek curse, the Wizard may be more your style.

    To see the full “Wizards ‘n Warriors” line-up, head over to the store.

  • E3 Hangover

    Posted: 06/26/2010

    Do you know what’s a bad idea? Free, all-you-can-drink Absinthe. Your night becomes a scene out of a Prodigy video. But, hey, we were drinking on Microsoft’s dime! And it’s not our fault they rented out the Edison for like a week. Damn you, Green Fairy and your intoxicating elixirs.

    What were we talking about? Oh, E3, where all the new games coming out in the next year are assembled — and you get to play them TODAY. The best way to enjoy E3 is to have zero responsibilities, and to be like a kid in a candy shop. But it’s a lot of work setting that up! Strategically used sick days, and calls to your well connected friends in the business. Only then can you fully enjoy the top-shelf Tanqueray martini in your hand as you watch zombie pole dancers gyrate seductively at the Dead Rising 2 party.

    But what about the games? Honestly, I don’t remember playing any. I’m even having trouble remembering the name of the band I saw pictured below, but I do remember liking them. I’m sure some other sites have some excellent quality gaming coverage, but again I have this thing about having zero responsibilities during E3. Welcome back, E3, you big, overblown, crazy spectacle you!

    Check out our E3 2010 gallery on our Facebook page.

    Ceaseless Discharge (black)
