Eh. I choose cosplay costumes based on two criteria:

1. Does it look interesting.
2. Is my physical appearance even remotely close enough to do the idea justice.

Number two is actually a pretty difficult problem. Probably the main factor when you get really amazing cosplayers has to do with this...

That aside, Fi from skyward sword is currently my favourite cosplay idea. (The latest Zelda is fun too though...)

Well... Favourite cosplay idea that's game related. Otherwise it'd probably be Erza from the Anime Fairy tail. (Lots of costumes there though - A wizard whose primary ability seems to be instantly changing her armour from one type to another... Inevitably leads to frequent costume changes. XD)

Oh...man. Adam Jensen from DX:HR. The coat and glasses are so badass!

Or Princess Zelda. She's badass too.

If it were possible to make my limbs invisible, I'd go as Rayman. Cause no one does Rayman. Cause it's impossible.

Or Gordon Freeman. If only so I had a real excuse to carry a crowbar with me.
Well, you could do rayman on camera. But not in person.

After all, 'the invisible man' idea has been done quite a few times in films.
All you need is a blue/green-screen and to wear skintight clothes that match your chroma key on all the parts of your body that are meant to be invisible.

But of course, the effect only works on camera...

Ekei Ankokuji from Onimusha 2. I like him as a character, and I resemble him a bit. I'd just have to shave my head really.

Realistically I could pull off a pretty good Dante from Devil May Cry or if I had the know how and patience to make costumes to make a bad-ass Spartan suit.

For my girlfriend though all she wants is Squall. Her favorite character plus I'm already so much like him already.

Brotherhood of Steel Paladin. If not then I'll settle for a vault jumpsuit, preferably 101.

The Riddler. And soon I will be able to.

I've ordered a tailored dark green suit from Thailand (measured when I went there this time last year), started making my own '?' cane and the rest of the pieces are easy pickings.

If that's cheating - Dante. I've seen his coats for sale and they look absolutely amazing. Just need to buy a pair of .45s and a claymore

Vivi from Final Fantasy IX.
Gotta see This one [http://www.cosplay.com/photo/438031/], then.

Hm, as for me... tough. I think I'd go for something unpersonal, like a Silent Hill monster - if that counts. Not Pyramid Head, though. Maybe Valtiel?

If it absolutely had to be someone with actual lines... Assassin Ansaksie from Iji [http://www.remar.se/daniel/iji.php]?

Considering my figure and current hairline, any overweight and bald mad scientist, such as Dr Robotnik, or Dr Wily, or Dr Cortex.

I might be able to pull it off convincingly.
At least you're not trying to be a Colossus from Colossus. That'd be a little hard to pull off
You just made me remember this video:

Travis Touchdown from No More Heroes: I have everything except the beam saber and red leather jacket. plus I'm sort of built like him.

Gene from God Hand: I would walk around threatening to Dragon Kick people into the Milky Way (Milky Way)

Scout from TF2: Perfect my Boston Accent and I'm all set

Anyone ever? Gotta be raziel from Soul Reaver. Never figured out a way of doing it convincingly, what with having a jawbone and all.
Still, I achieved one fantasy cosplay a couple of years back:

Well I was planning on doing Tifa for the next MCM Exbo in May. But now I've got another idea in my head that I'm kinda leaning towards. (It's Applejack ^^)

If I had the time and money, I'd love to go as Lady Sylvanas Windrunner. Purely so I can walk around all day and sing Lament of the Highborn.

... or the Protagonist from P3, ...
His canonical name is Minato Arisato.

OT: same, or Seta Souji (Protagonist from P4).

Or maybe even Nightmare's Soul Calibur IV P1 outfit, just because it was be so amazing to actually do.
