Destructoid Halloween 2008: Kool-Aid, YouTube, Mega Mans and more  photo

Thanks to everyone that sent in or blogged about their Halloween costumes! There were a lot of great costumes that came from everyone. If this was a contest and we had to select the best, then craineum's son would easily be the winner.

The above video shows craineum and his sons finally getting to use their Captain N-themed Halloween costumes. Witness the little Mega Man redefining adorable as he goes trick-or-treating and pew-pew-pewing.

Ha, I didn't think it would get any more adorable than his "Pew pew pew" on RetroforceGO!, but he really got into being Mega Man. I just wanted to see him jump through a door...

Yes Craineum, your children are adorable, and your costumes are fantastic. If there was a King of Halloween, I'd vote for you. :D

Cool, my Dtoid masks got a mention :3

Here's one in action.

As you can see, I should have went with the cardboard box method as it kinda looks like its smiling bent around my face.
Cheap and fun though.

Yay! My costume got in! My favorites were Kool-Aid, Double Dare, and, of course, Craineum's adorable kids. On a side note, I'm really glad you told your son to say trick or treat and thank you. I gave out candy this year, and most kids just took some candy and walked away without a word. D:
