Swag Sunday: BioSwag!

When you come right down to it, genetic engineering is about the only shot humans are going to have at developing real super powers. Which is why BioShock and BioShock 2 are more than just stories about some nifty underwater city gone wrong. When you have people that can move objects with their minds or blast fire from their hands and then stick them in a gorgeous dystopia, that’s when you’ve got a story.
So what better way to celebrate that world than by bringing it into our own? With that in mind, we’re offering up a mess of BioShock swag: one BioShock “Don’t Wait! Incinerate!” women’s shirt (size medium), one BioShock 2 Butterfly Hands men’s shirt (size small), two different BioShock lithographs, and one extremely cool, handmade Splicer mask. Check out the prizes in the gallery below, and read the rules to enter.
- Leave a comment telling us what plasmid power you’d want. Feel free to make up your own.
- You must be 18 years or older and a resident of the US or Canada (excluding Quebec, mostly due to our exclusion from a “statut particulier” status in Canada).
- Limit 1 entry per person per day.
- This entry period ends at 7:01PM ET on Monday, March 1.
- At that time, we’ll randomly select one winner to receive one BioShock 2 men’s butterfly shirt, size small (ARV $10), one BioShock 2 women’s “Incinerate!” shirt, size medium (ARV $10), two BioShock lithographs (ARV $15 each), and one handmade Splicer mask (ARV $50).
- For a list of complete rules, click here.
What is Joyswag? Since we don’t keep the games and merchandise we receive for review or promotional purposes, it becomes “Joyswag,” which is passed along to our readers. Please note that Joyswag may be in “used” condition. For more info on our policy, click here.

Into the Pixel goes into the auction on eBay

Hey, you remember the Into the Pixel exhibit at last year’s E3, right? Oh, no, that’s right, they don’t allow the plebes in. Had you been lucky enough to grace it with your stares, you’d have found a “jury-curated exhibition of video game art created by published video and computer game artists.” And now that very same art can be found gracing the pages of eBay, as the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences has opened up bidding on a smattering of pieces (starting yesterday and running through February 20).
Featuring art from games like Flower and Fable 2, the proceeds will help to fund the AIAS’ scholarship programs. The bidding has most certainly begun, though most pieces remain at their initial $100 opening bid as of publishing. If you’re looking to snap up one of these snappy pieces, we’d suggest you get bidding sooner rather than later!

Clear your day for these new MGS: Peace Walker screens
We hope you didn’t have anything planned for the next hour or so, because we’ve got quite the mission and you’re the only person who can get the job done. See, Konami deployed a bounty of new screens (63 in all) for Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker and we can’t possibly get through them all.
There are some multiplayer screens, art of various characters and equipment shots, and even a few screens of Peace Walker’s progressive recruitment system we’ve dubbed “the smart balloon.” As if we weren’t frightened enough by stranger danger, now we have to know that the military has had auto-piloting balloons that can whisk us off to “re-education” centers at will since the ’70s. It’s just a video game, right, guys? Right?
