Which video game character would you cosplay as if you could.

[KarlMonster]

I'd like to do a Monolith fighter from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. but there are contextual difficulties. Unless I constantly intone praises to the Monolith, I'd just be mistaken for the winter camo terrorist skin from Counter-Strike.

I know the OP explicitly stated 'video game', but the *absolute* best would be to cosplay as a Jagermonster from Girl Genius Online! I love their speech quirks.

Oh, all right. Videogames...

I'd like to be 1/2 of Sheckley & Griggs (did I spell that right?). Or one of the City 17 henchmen. I could hand people a drink and say "here, patch yourself up!"

Speaking of which, the kids I saw on Halloween weren't even trying. There was one kid who I actually recognized as being vaguely of the Link archetype. I had a better costume than most of them, and all I had was a faux hockey mask, a flannel shirt, and a caulk gun.

 

[surg3n]

The shopkeeper from Resident Evil 4. It's the kind of thing that a lot of people wouldn't recognise, but the people who do recognise it would think it's awesome.

 

[lachcal]

The Arkham City version of Mister Freeze. Including the voice changer.

 

[Crazy Zaul]

Anyone who wears a cape.

 

[Randomperson9999999]

ezio from assassins creed brotherhood

 

[TheDooD]

Either Jagi from Hokuto Musou or the Iron Golem from Dark Souls.

 

[Lost Cause]

I've got a couple I'd like to do, although I won't say who for fear of having my testicles put in a vice.

Although I will admit to wanting to do TF141 and BSAA redshirts.

 

[BLAHwhatever]

Hm. I'm not into wearing costumes. Like, not at all.

But I've been Megaman as a kid countless times! just stuff a cylindric card bord thingie, or a couch cussion over your right hand. Bam! Megaman!

Now there's got to be something like that in my room....

*distant pew pew noises and maniac laughter*

 

[natster43]

Well I have already done cosplays of Frank West from Dead Rising and Ellis from Left 4 Dead 2, and I have an Organization XIII Robe. But if I could cosplay anyone... Johnny Cage from Mortal Kombat.

 

[qwertyzxy27]

I cosplayed Navi for Halloween this year

 

[aegix drakan_v1legacy]

If it were even possible, I'd want to do mewtwo. He's a total badass

But there's no way that's happening.

[DeadXV]

I would love to dress up as War from Darksiders just cause i think he looks cool. I'd get custom made armor (real armor) it'd be heavy as fuck but worth it. Barring that a Red Spy (TF2) with different cut out masks depending on the situation.

 

[CrazyGirl17]

Probably Alex Mercer from Prototype (hey, what's wrong with a little crossplay?), though maybe Tifa Lockhart of Aerith Gainsbourough would be good choices too..

 

[ToastiestZombie]

Big daddy, or maybe the NCR ranger from New Vegas. Im not really the type of person who would go around as Link or a Final Fantasy character.

 

[IamQ]

Confession time: I am a cosplayer. I'm old enough to know better, but when you get down to it, I find it's fun.

I'm a bit of a Final Fantasy fangirl, so I've done Terra, Yuffie and Tifa. Proof?

Spoiler

Everyone has to grow old. Not everyone has to grow up.

Why act like others your age if you find it less fun? Always do what you love, and you seem to be doing that strongly at the moment.

OT:

Well, I'm already considering cosplay strongly, but that is a cosplay from an anime, so I can't have it here. Hmm, if I had to choose a video game, I wouldn't mind being able to cosplay Kratos. Although, that would probably mean I'd have to spend 4-5 days a week at the gym hardcore training, try to be able to grow a decent Kratos-beard despite only being 17, and shaving my head bald, which is a shame, considering that at the moment, I'm trying to get longer hair.

 

[Vrach]

Altair all the way. With a blade as well, only one on my left arm.

That said, I might rather go as Adam Jensen for the "a lot less nerdy while still being awesome" factor. It also seems easier to pull off, basically need the hairdo, glasses, beard and a leather coat.

 

[RileyFaux]

Creeper
Ezio from Revelations
Gordon Freeman
Tirion Fordring <3

 

[Voodoomancer]

Super Meat Boy.

My costume will be made from 300 kilos of meat.

[small]Lazy option: Buy some of that Deus Ex official gear and say your dressed as Adam Jensen.[/small]
