Where your avatar comes from

Mine is the Escapist's default avatar of Crush, given a Happy New Year's hat by the nice people over at the Avatar Store. I want to say that it was Aerosteam in particular that made it.

I had just watched Finding Nemo before I joined the site and was too lazy to get a picture from the Internet or upload one, so I decided to just go with Crush since he's my favorite character. As for the hat, I think it's nice to get into the New Year's spirit.

Me on My KTM, in Kamloops. I like the picture because of the weather that day.

 

[Glaber]

It's the mark of The Outsider.

Sackboy Cole MacGrath

Mainly because I run the inFAMOUS wiki, but also because someone started using my personal one
(Which was personal, "cause I drew it me self, govn'!")

My avatar is a picture of "Game Grumps". A show on youtube with Egoraptor and JonTron, a very deadly combination. One of my favorite youtube channel

I live in North Carolina, as does Escapist HQ. Figured that the WWII era battleship/museum ship USS North Carolina was appropriate for the site.

Zero Punctuation's review of Halo 3.

Captain Bland's Monotonous Adventure.

It was a statement about the projected future of the game industry if we as a community don't stop lowering the bar so popular shit doesn't get a free pass.

And frankly I stand by that train of logic.

But barring avoiding the total cultural stagnation we're diving head first into, I'll at least be able to say I was into Captain Bland before he was the titular character in his own 6 game trilogy.

Oh god! I'm a hipster of the cultural apocalypse!

In case it's not obvious, it's a cropped out section from the box art of Psychonauts, and because I really liked Psychonauts. And cause Raz's costume is kickass. Damn, if I ever cosplay, that's what I'm going to go as.

It's a photo of me that one of my friends took of me last month in Downtown Riverside at the Festival of Lights.

Mine is Agent 47 because I love the Hitman games, they were the games that made me fall in love with the stealth games. Even after the heart break that was caused by Absolution, I still love 'em. Best games ever with one of the best characters ever. Love it

I was browsing through Mirror's Edge fan art in Deviantart and found this version of Faith, it's just so beautiful.

It's a photo I took at a safari park, out the back of the family car, of a monkey hanging onto the back windscreen wiper like a windsurfer.

My last one was my Halo 3 spartan's helmet with an explosion in the background. I still use that one on my youtube channel.

Thank you.

Though I've always wondered why he as fingers as legs. I mean if he is a sock puppet, shouldn't the findgrs be pointing inwards?
