Man, are you guys ready to get meta? Epic Games founder (and Unreal Engine mastermind) Tim Sweeney was recently the subject of an Unreal Tournament 3 skin crafted by artist Gary Storkamp. Apparently, the guy is crazy about Burger King. And about hitting dudes with his keyboard.
You can check out some higher-res scans of Virtual Sweeney on Gary's site, or even download the skin for your own UT3 sessions. Just be careful with that holstered soft drink, though -- we hear it's absolutely stuffed with raw killing power.

Am I the only one who read Sweeney Todd?
I have the strong desire for a musical videogame about senseless murders.

Somebody needs to throw Cliff B. In Gears 3. Always wanted to take a lancer to him. Or maybe my Gold-plated Retro lancer with Thrashball Cole!

nice! he deserves it. I hope more creators will be turn inot gaming characters so that gamers would feel connected to them. I hope the creator of gamesgadget would also volunteer to be a gaming character.
