Super talented prop designer and creator, Harrison Krix, is once again in the spotlight for his amazing game-related props as he and his fiancée run around the walkways of an aquarium in their amazing Bioshock costumes, now in a setting to equal the first reveal of their outfits earlier this year.

The location is absolutely perfect and matches up wonderfully with the underwater city of Rapture featured in the game, creating a similar vibe to what players of Bioshock may have felt while roaming the halls of the dystopian city.



Head on over to Krix’s site for a whole ton more photos from his aquarium appearance.

We may raise our snobby noses as we pass by cosplayers at conventions, but once a year it becomes socially acceptable for us to embrace our inner theater student and don a disguise. Being people who spend quite a bit of time writing about or playing video games, we tend to err on the side of nerdery when it comes to Halloween outfits (shocking, we know). The folks at Fangamer coax this urge all the more when they release a full outfit of Earthbound’s hero, Ness, on their site. Considering the striped “Shirtness,” the accompanying “Earth Bounder” (the yo-yo) and the guarantee that it’ll arrive before Halloween, the $54.99 asking price seems almost acceptable. Almost.

This is a just a warning to any zombies considering joining the New York City Halloween parade. Pictured above are some of the plants that PopCap will be sending to march in said parade. As you — the zombies — well know, these plants will most certainly assure your demise. Well, except the wall-nuts. They’ll pretty much just stand there and let you eat them, but we love ‘em anyway. They’re just so damned cute. Dumb, but cute.

Okay, sure, he may have looked ridiculous dressed up as Eddie Riggs at last night’s MTV video Music Awards, what with that awful wig and foam arms that would have been laughed off the set of Popeye. And yeah, we know he’s got a stake in the project’s success, but you have to love Jack Black’s commitment to Brütal Legend, one that we wish all big-name celebrities could share when they appear in games of their own.
Seriously though, Jack, let’s have a talk about that wig.

Flickr user deficientatlife has some great shots of a cosplaying duo, featuring the Big Daddy and Little Sister from Bioshock you see above. The photostream even includes some step-by-step photos of how it all came together. Turns out, work is involved. We thought they just cut off your hand, put a big drill on it, and sent you on your way. Shows how much we know!
[Thanks, John!]

OK, we’re sure this has been floating around the tubes for a bit, but we’re more than happy to devote some attention to the very cool Brotherhood of Steel costume you see above. Made out of awesome and love (probably some foam and paint in there too), the beautiful homage to Fallout 3 was apparently completed back in March.
After seeing this, we don’t feel so bad about losing that auction for the 7′10″ Brotherhood of Steel statue. We’d go to work wearing this costume if we could.
[Thanks, Gawk]

Turkish website Nintendocu.com has a gallery of fantastic Legend of Zelda cosplay compiled from various photography websites and gaming events. The primary character in action is Princess Zelda herself, with cameo appearances from Link. In one of the images (above) Zelda and Link can be seen locking lips, which we’re pretty sure jumps the shark from “dress playing” lore to “blue” fan fiction. It’s especially “blue” if you’ve got a thing for plastic ears.
