And the Mirror's Edge cosplay begins ... starting with Italian models? photo

Mirror's Edge cosplay was inevitable -- it's not too tough to replicate Faith's outfit, and a black wig is all you need to make the transformation complete. However, the last thing in the world I can say I expected to see is Italian models dressing up as her, but that's just what happened at a launch event for the game held in Milan, Italy last week.

Head over to MTV Multiplayer to see more images of this model and a second one, both of who I think did a fine job considering neither of them are actually Eurasian. Still, no complaints about hot girls dressing up as videogame characters, really. Send one dressed as Lucca over to make me breakfast and show me how to build a time machine and I'll be quite happy.

She looks better than the girl in the game, imo. But I'm not one to judge girls, anyways. XD

Meh, not wow'd. Then again, it may just be the idea of cosplaying as Faith thats underwhelming to me(as you said, not that hard, yah?).

That being said, I think she looks better than Faith in-game.

Yeah, cosplaying as Faith is pretty weak and wholly unoriginal. Also, what's the big deal about Italians in Italy dressing up as Faith? Are Asians the only ones aloud to don the uninspired outfit?

For cosplay to work don't the characters have to be blue and have some wild anime hair?

Like it is getting hard to play and dress up as the boring new characters these days.

hell I know a chick that looked and dressed like that way before the game even came out.

Needs more Eurasians. At least, that's my guess as to Faith's ethnicity.
