Anything can inspire cosplay, and I mean anything. Like keyboard-smashing Flash game QWOP, for instance. This dude was QWOP-ing it up at Comic-Con, and God bless him for that!

"You can't stop QWOP."
True. QWOP does that just fine without help.

All the rage that I felt when trying QWOP for the first time just reemerged. This cosplay is truly a work of art.

QWOP and GIRP were invented for the sole purpose of fucking with me.

It's easy if you make the poor bastard do the whole thing on his knees.

Hilarious. But dammit if that game was frustrating and hilarious. I managed about 300 meters on one knee. And that hurdle? Fuck that hurdle! I was dragging that thing for another 50 meters before I finally disentangled myself.

I am so annoyed I've never thought of this. I'd never pull it off so well, mind.

I didn't know what QWOP was until I saw this, not sure if I should hate it or laugh at it. The cosplay is pretty creative though.

From past experience, I know that if you're going to cosplay, you better get all the character's moves down.

Nice to see a game without huge bros or weird anime chicks getting some cosplay. Maybe next we can see some Pong, Adventure, or Zork cosplay.
