PAX 07: Cosplay is why we bring cameras to conventions

by JC Fletcher { Aug 25th 2007 at 6:50AM }

This Peach cosplayer manages to look pretty elegant in the dress despite the backwards cap and dudeness. Seriously, I wanted to laugh at first, but-- at least within the context of PAX-- he's kind of pulling it off! I look a lot more awkward in this (and every) picture, and I'm totally wearing pants. Props to Casey the Peach cosplayer, and we hope he made it through the day without developing an aversion to cameras.

After the break is an impressive Link cosplayer dressed for the icy depths of PAX Under the Sea.

[Update: corrected Casey's name. Sorry-- I ran into too many Mikes, I think.]

I think this is the reason why people are made fun of so extensively on the internet.

Seriously, that is one reason that gamers get looked at by the majority of members in society that says, "you like videogames? you must be antisocial and not have a girlfriend."

Don't you mean crossplayer?

No Queen, thats is sad no matter what the occasion.

Joe @ Aug 25th 2007 7:13AM

Why no mention of the Gordon Freeman cosplayer in the picture as well?

omg, such a cute dress.

iliarules @ Aug 25th 2007 8:21AM

Man-Peach is awesome. I bet he wouldn't need Mario to save him. Bowser would quickly discover "It's a trap!"

rdj75 @ Aug 25th 2007 11:40AM

Unless bowser is just freaky in that kind away, then man peach is in alot of trouble.

Miharu @ Aug 25th 2007 8:32AM

That is a very good costume but it's ruined really because he could have gotten a wig and put on makeup and make an actually fine Peach if he only dared. But due to peer pressure perhaps, he went the line of "lol d00d you're the man lol thats so funny guy in a dress lolz" :(

blooh @ Aug 25th 2007 10:17AM

the gordon freeman-ish guy looks almost exactly like my roommate

phattie @ Aug 25th 2007 10:27AM

That person in the dress.. its a dude, right?

Fullmetal Salchemist @ Aug 25th 2007 10:30AM

Oddly enough, he looks better than like 90% of women who cosplay as Peach.

Backslash @ Aug 25th 2007 10:31AM

The Link costume isn't THAT impressive. >>

LeChuck @ Aug 25th 2007 10:32AM

Such poise and grace. If he does well in the talent comepetition he's a shoe-in to win the tiara.

delldude420 @ Aug 25th 2007 10:35AM

the dude dressed as link actually looks gayer than the one in the peach dress. a tleast the dude dressed as pink looks like he would cut you

delldude420 @ Aug 25th 2007 10:41AM

peach

BPM @ Aug 25th 2007 11:21AM

At least Man-Peach is nowhere nearly as scary as Man-Faye.

rdj75 @ Aug 25th 2007 11:42AM

There is no way in hell I could do something like this, unfortunately I know of a few buddies of mine that would do this just to have their picture on the internet like this guy. This is just sad, but like someone said, he should have gone all out with the wig and make-up.
