Taking 'bury me with my games' to a whole new level photo

Instead of leading you on, I'm going to do the kind thing and burst your bubble before you start mapping out elaborate designs for your Patapon coffin -- these don't really exist. They could, though, thanks to a little site called Creative Coffins that makes enviromentally conscious coffins from cardboard and will design them to your specifications.

The mockups were created by the fine people over at T3, and although they may not be real just yet, they did get me thinking -- would being buried in a Halo coffin be the coolest thing ever, or permanently confirm for all people present that you were as much of a douchelord in death as you were in life? It's cool to have an NES license plate or a N64 keychain, but we're talking about death here, people. This may be your last trendy statement -- do you want to do go down in history as the guy that got buried in an iPhone?

I could see a super nintendo tombstone but a coffin is kinda stupid who needs aesthetic? People will never see it except for the funeral then its just wasting away in the ground

the rotation of abxy on that controller, in comparison to the rest of the controller bugs the shit out of me.

I want to get a picture taken of me in the coffin naked with a full on boner and get that plastered onto it. I wonder if they would do that...

Am I the only one that finds it amusing that you'd have an eject button on a coffin?

your dead, who cares what you are buried in. Cardboard over wood though, that is enticing, the worms can get in easier that way. I think a Worms designed cardboard coffin is cool and appropriate.

That isn't a very effective SNES controller; my hands are not that crooked.
Why pay so much for a coffin anyway? Who needs a box decorated with lace trim and cushions? Barring extremely unlikely circumstances, once you are in the ground, you stay there. And rot.

If this is what it tales to prove you are a hardcore gamer, I don't think I want to be one then. It's just a hobby people..

If you get buried in a GTAIV coffin does it mean that you were totally overrated and didn't deserve all the nice things people said about you at your eulogy?

Zing.

@B-Radicate: I lol'd.

I'm probably gonna go with something a little classier- a Castlevania-inspired coffin. Hell yes.

I would like to point out that they already have KISS Kaskets.

I want to be cremated and my ashes used to either be used as carbon in a few special CPU chips to be given to my off-spring to use in there PC (until I get out dated and sold on ebay as a gimmick making them some pocket money) or to be crushed into a Diamond and used in a factory for cutting PCBs.
