Title: gaming gloves
Post by: guyjin on May 30, 2008, 05:19:34 AM: http://vintagecomputing.com/ is awesome. I remember being intrigued by these gloves, which they just posted about.

either my thumbs got tougher or I started playing less, but my thumbs don't bother me much anymore when playing.

Sure you can have a pair, but that doesn't mean that you can wear both of 'em at the same time. :wink:

Post by: Golgo13 on June 05, 2008, 09:21:02 AM: I remember they were advertising these in gamepro magazine back in the day, I remember thinking "What the f*ck do these have to do with batman?"

I dont like them because they dont have anything related to gaming on them, its like some a$$hole made too much merchandise for the original batman movie and tried to remarket and pawn this shit off in the early 90's.
