What is the worst knock off for something you have ever seen? Doesn't matter what as long as it's a clear imitation of something. For me it's taxman, just a shittier pacman clone on the apple 2 computer. (cookie to anyone who knows what I'm referencing here)

Edit: If you can add pics so we can all see how awful the product is

Follow the topics you create using the "Follow" button in the top right corner!

One day I will have my GTX 970. One day. PC specs are at my profile.

Not sure how to check what part works with what? Check out my compatibility guide!

Can we go outside tech? I bought "Calvin Klain" underwear in China.

When I was in China I saw a dude rocking a "Galvin Klein" shirt. Guess a lot of brands have rhyming names...  :ph34r:

I don't get the whole incorrect naming thing. If you're going to copy logos, industrial design and fonts, you might as well spell it right haha
