Some more GameSetLinks dredged up from the old RSS, then - including some fun Suda51-related cultural references, how Nike+ can lead to alt.MMO goodness, and 2D Boy's latest Flash game experiment.

Oh, and on a random note, before we forget - we'll finally be revealing and launching (for individual/group purchase) the other three GameSetApparel limited-edition T-shirt designs later this week - and they're pretty darn cool, as you will see.
