You think Cyberpunk, Steampunk and Dieselpunk - the three most popular forms - are limited to literature, movies and videogames? Think again, motherfucker:</p> <p>Steampunk fashion: <a href="http://www.whitemischief.info/category/dressup/steampunk" rel="nofollow">http://www.whitemischief.info/category/dressup/steampunk</a></p> <p>Dieselpunk fashion: <a href="http://www.dieselpunks.org/photo/albums/dieselpunk-fashion-1" rel="nofollow">http://www.dieselpunks.org/photo/albums/dieselpunk-fashion-1</a></p> <p>In London, there are even *different* club nights dedicated to cyberpunk, steampunk and dieselpunk - and *yes*, they're separate, despite sharing some similarities.</p> <p>So FUCK YOU.</p> <p>[/still having a bad week]</p> <p>EDIT: Also, how the fuck is The Rocketeer or Sky Captain &amp; The World of Tomorrow Steampunk? Both are Dieselpunk. #GEEKRAGE </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5546#post-31272 Tue, 06 Mar 2012 19:08:00 +0000 Stardog 31272@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>It's Steampunk.</p> <p>These extra genres are BS created by Kindle authors. Just because they're on Wikipedia, it doesn't mean they actually exist other than in those author's minds. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5546#post-31271 Tue, 06 Mar 2012 16:11:10 +0000 Gheritt White 31271@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Yes, Fallout is technically post-Apocalyptic Atompunk. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5546#post-31266 Tue, 06 Mar 2012 13:57:26 +0000 OrbitMonkey 31266@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Thanks Gherrit, that was very interesting. I've been a big fan of Diesel/Decopunk without even knowing it had a name! Cheers ;-)</p> <p>I suppose Fallout would fall into a Atomopunk category? In which case I'm a fan if that too :-D </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5546#post-31237 Mon, 05 Mar 2012 19:47:37 +0000 LOLshock94 31237@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>couldnt give you a fuck am sorry :( </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5546#post-31231 Mon, 05 Mar 2012 12:31:48 +0000 Gheritt White 31231@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>...it was Dieselpunk.
