Quantcast



So far, Halloween costumes this year have been epic. We've gotten a few tips over the last couple of days with Halloween costumes so here's one nice post to bring them all together. You'll notice that Orange Box is the popular choice this year as that makes up the majority of pictures here. There was also a nice looking BioShock costume too. Hit the jump for details on all the pictures.

Also, for everyone that's going out and dressing up for Halloween, make sure you get us the pictures! We want to have another gallery like we did last year. Make it clap!

Everyone is gay for Portal. This cutey along with the .tiff were spotted at an EGM party. Check out Jared from GameTap Splicer costume as well. 


Mark Talaga from Midway games did a little Team Fortress 2 action as the Spy along with his friends:

I was apart of the Team Fortress II crew (I was the spy).  We won second place at the Chicago Red Eye costume contest…I’m pretty sure no one had any idea who we actually were haha.

He also passed along a picture of his friends doing Street Fighter. Is Balrog a white guy painted black? 


I wasn't joking about all the TF2 costumes. Dtoider TooTallTony passed along his PhotoBucket that has plenty more photos of his TF2 party.

Dtoider Alex Trejo and his wife dressed up like a Big Daddy and Splicer:

The missus and I spent a pretty hectic weekend making our renditions of big daddy and spider splicer costumes.
The head went through a few versions before I found one that didn't cave in/blow up. The final version here was made
out of a cauldron with a punch bowl drilled on top.

Ultimately, I think the end product turned out pretty well for a costume made mainly out of thrift store finds.

Happy Halloween, Dtoid!


Next up is Karen Chu's TF2 costume. She also made a Companion Cube too. Read all about it on her blog.

Finally, here's probably one of the best Team Fortress 2 costumes I've seen yet. [Via FileFront

Looking forward to seeing what you all come up with.

first off, the black face is great...

secondly anybody else think after seeing "big daddy" next to the splicer that he should be called "mediocre daddy"..just sayin..

Have I missed the news about Crysis PC demo? It's supposed to be one of the most important games on the pc front, for those who don't know.

Nice dude, I would definitely have to say that the last few TF2 and BioShock costumes were the coolest. The Aperture science girl was pretty cool too. Also, oh my. Is that .tiff as Princess Mononoke? *high five*

I fucking lawl'd at blackface Balrog. I even think he put a gap in his teeth!


"I have a problem with people talking out of line *sip* unless I have fornicated with them."


I agree, these costumes are hott. I was going to do the whole spy thing, but I couldn't seem to find a pin-stripe suit that was within my price range. :(
