    Ahh, the Goons. As an entity, they are arguably the largest gaming collective in MMO history, with presences in Second Life, World of Warcraft, and EVE Online, with doubtless many other MMOs inhabited. EVE, in particular, is home to the GoonSwarm, or GoonFleet, which is infamous for its combat tactic of harassing larger ships with a rush of smaller, less-powerful vehicles. Cheap? Maybe. Effective? Definitely.In a testament to the power of its alliance, they've created a music video that's sure to stir the hearts of Goon-loving forces everywhere. Entitled 'Little Bees', based on the Beatles song 'Let It Be', and featuring lyrics like 'And when the system's laggy/You could lay the blame on CCP', it's got our vote for Best New Artist Video of the Year.

    It ain't Wii shirt day, is it? Maybe we're just in a fashion groove here, but this Beatles-Mii shirt was too good to resist. Just imagine the possibilities for other celebrity-themed Mii shirts. We've already seen a demand for celebrity Miis, after all, so why wouldn't we want to plaster them to our bodies? Whose Mii would you wear?The best part of this shirt is that you can get the Miis for your own Wii -- on the Nerdy Shirts website, they've got the friend code listed. Go forth, young Beatles fans, and make friends.[Thanks, Chris!]
