PAX 07: The last Metroid is a hat. The universe is at peace.

We ran into this Metroid attack in progress while perusing the show floor here at PAX. We went for our Ice Beam, but, because those totally don't exist, we used our camera instead. It was ineffective for stopping the Metroid, but it made for an awesome picture.

The model here (whose name we didn't get, mostly because we were distracted by haberdashery) is also the artist responsible for the hat, and we've linked her DeviantArt page here.

I'd do her.

Moofree: Aug 24th 2007; 7:57PM

Yes, but I'd prefer it with the helmet on.

Fernando Rocker: Aug 24th 2007; 7:53PM

spongebolton: Aug 24th 2007; 7:54PM

blooh: Aug 24th 2007; 7:59PM

Jack: Aug 24th 2007; 8:04PM

Bawls, Metroid, Asian...

8/10 ("Yeah, I'd hit that")

Aaron Larson: Aug 24th 2007; 8:17PM

You didn't get her name, but you got her Deviant page? LIKELY STORY JOYSTIQ. you can't hog all the womenz forever!

Neebs: Aug 24th 2007; 8:21PM

Drinks Bawls. Has black hair. Looks vaguely asian or white. Has glasses.

Yep, that's a gamer chick.

Jack: Aug 24th 2007; 8:27PM

A rare and dangerous creature, if the internets are to be believed.

Neebs: Aug 24th 2007; 8:37PM

Possibly even...non-existent if it weren't for this photographic evidence.

J-Guy: Aug 24th 2007; 10:44PM

Nah, just like Bigfoot. It's either a prank by some very creative people or something that "looks" like a hot gaming chick that loves Metroid.

Hito: Aug 25th 2007; 4:44AM

sigh.. another hoax.. and just as we were getting so close to PROOF!

Sam: Aug 24th 2007; 8:28PM

"I HAS A METROID"... i bet she made that shirt herself too..

john: Aug 24th 2007; 8:31PM

Oh shit, this is the same girl who made the GIANT original NEW controller! Why do all the cool chicks live in Canada? Wait.. Don't answer that.

john: Aug 25th 2007; 12:14PM

I mean giant NES controller

James: Aug 24th 2007; 8:36PM

OMG she's the spit of an ex girlfriend from school! Only with a Metroid hat. She liked Playstation. Even made a PS logo clock in wood tech. mad!

Jack: Aug 24th 2007; 8:57PM

SHE'S SPIT!?!??!?!

T-bone and Razor: Aug 24th 2007; 8:56PM

I need to have that shirt

Eligio J Rosa: Aug 24th 2007; 9:43PM

I think the shirt suppose to say: I was a Metroid.

And yes, I hit that.

BPM: Aug 25th 2007; 1:35AM

Nope. The statement on the shirt is correct. The odd grammar is akin to lolcat image macros and the like.

dillpunk: Aug 24th 2007; 9:58PM

do i have to be the first to point out that the chick is pretty damn fugly? come on guys... have some standards

ThornedVenom: Aug 24th 2007; 11:30PM

I believe all the comments were sarcastic. Who in their right mind think metroids are hot? xD

We've got already too many Snape and Waluigi admirers... (I hang way too much on Encyclopedia Dramatica)

shivr: Aug 24th 2007; 10:08PM

hat + shirt = awesome

she seems like a cool person... maybe a little eccentric... then again I've got a Miyamoto shirt so I can't judge

Adv2k1: Aug 24th 2007; 10:32PM

cute i'll totally bang her!

Matters: Aug 24th 2007; 10:57PM

This would be easier if you just told us which women you don't want to bang and we'll assume you want to bang everybody else.

Obie: Aug 24th 2007; 10:40PM

I gotta get me that beanie!

Matters: Aug 24th 2007; 10:54PM

she got her hand on my bawls

Crosswayboy: Aug 24th 2007; 11:07PM

Comments like many of those on this forum are the exact reason why women like her would never have sex with guys like them.

Bigfoot: Aug 25th 2007; 12:56AM

She's awesome in my book.

beanj007: Aug 25th 2007; 12:57AM

Sorry... it's "The galaxy is at peace." :P

rallion: Aug 25th 2007; 1:34AM

That is one of the greatest pictures ever. None else needs be said.

I has a metroid!

Patrick: Aug 25th 2007; 9:29AM

it be better if it said i can has metroid?

BPM: Aug 25th 2007; 1:37AM

She is, quite possibly, one of the coolest girls, no-- one of the coolest HUMANS on this planet.

Slaziman: Aug 25th 2007; 3:09AM

Id hit it, but not the cutest I've seen or anything

elmersglue: Aug 25th 2007; 8:31AM

The fact that so many people are saying "i'd hit it" worries me about the type of people that visit this site. Go to UCI and thats is exactly what all the chicks look like. Either that, or white. And trust me, those aren't the girls that make the guys proud to be going there. I don't know, maybe i've been around too many fugly asian chicks in my life (nothing against asian girls in general) to see ANYTHING likeable in that girl.

tenchi221: Aug 25th 2007; 2:00PM

living and working in irvine, i completly agree with u

ALEENUH: Aug 25th 2007; 9:18AM

why cant a girl just drink bawls without getting stupid penis jokes thrown at her?

BPM: Aug 25th 2007; 11:27AM

Bad penis jokes and Bawls go together like flying penises and SecondLife.

Sirielia: Aug 25th 2007; 1:37PM

That hat is great... what's even better is the giant NES controller she made that you can see on her DeviantArt page.

Gamedeals.ca: Aug 26th 2007; 4:12AM

I can't believe she made Joystiq. She goes by "Eyes5" and the Giant NES controller she made is hanging in the front window of my store.
