These gaming clock faces will make you want to buy a smart watch
|

The jury is still out in smart watches. Are they cool? Are they dorky? Is everyone just waiting for the Apple Watch to come out?

But one thing is for sure: these gaming themes, which replicate famous watches and gizmos from our favourite adventures, have the best chance of convincing you to strap a Moto 360 on your wrist.

Let's take a look…

Metal gear

The latest one we found is this Metal Gear Solid-inspired design, which puts Snake's codec doodad on your arm. The date comes through as a message, while the time is displayed as the codec frequency. Get it here.

Destructoid Goldeneye

Next up, the world's greatest watch. This smartwatch theme can't display your health or shoot lasers, but it will make you feel a bit like like James Bond in N64 classic Goldeneye. Best used on round watches, of course.

Reddit Pip Boy

And finally, you don't need to wait for a nuclear apocalypse to get your hands on a Pip-boy 3000 anymore, as you can turn any Android Wear watch into the handy wrist-based computer from Fallout 3.
