The 100 best video game tattoos
Tats a lot of tats
Put gaming dedication in ink
It takes a special kind of zealotry to permanently mark the skin with a tattoo. Well, that and no fear of needles, but we digress...
There are plenty of video game tattoos out in the wild, but these 100 are the best we've ever seen. From Mario to Kratos, Gears of War to Assassin's Creed, each of these tattoos represents a devotion to gaming of the highest order. Revel in these bodily masterpieces, and maybe get some ideas for your next turn in the tattoo parlor. Oh, and there's no naughty bits ahead, we promise.
