Geek Apparel of the Week: Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles
Ladies and gents, I’m proud to introduce to you the greatest zombie t-shirt of all time. It’s a promotional short Capcom will be giving out at SDCC next week to promote its Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles game for the Wii. You’d be forgiven for thinking it looks like a shitty promotional giveaway shirt, since that’s exactly what it is… on the outside.
Yes, flip the shirt over your head to become a zombie with a disturbingly exposed belly. I can’t stand how awesome this is. Well done, Capcom — well done indeed. Thanks to NerdBastards.com and all the zombies who sent in this tip.
