11.01.2006 BEST HALO HALLOWEEN COSTUME EVER
Keep sending in awesome or hilarious gamer Halloween costumes that you wore or saw other people wearing last night -- I'll continue to post the reader submission photos all night, but this costume deserves a post of its own. Reader Jon Kochis was at the Posh Nite Club in Akron, Ohio last night, and he snagged these photos of what is possibly the best Master Chief costume ever. I've seen some great Halo costumes before, but this one takes the energy sword and slices up all the others. Imagine how sober the room got when they saw this Master Chief walk in with a nearly real needler gun that glows in the dark -- I can see it now. The room grows silent and all that can be heard is his chrome testicles of perfection clinking together as he walks up to the bar. He turns and yells "Who wants free shots?!" as he blows away everyone with his glowing covenant ammo, it would be the best drunken death one could endure.
The Posh Nite Club offered a two day competition for best Halloween costumes, and this guy won $1,000 each night, once for his Halo outfit, and again the next night for his Predator suit (last thumbnail). The best part about these awesome costumes is that the women automatically flocked to him without even knowing what he looks like. I'm pretending there's two 12 year old geek geniuses inside the one suit operating the limbs in hopes of getting drunk without being ID'd. Actually no, it'd be even better if the Master Chief pulled a Metroid surprise and took off the helmet to reveal it's really a gorgeous girl -- I'd be forced to battle her Spartan suit with a Trojan or two. Gotta love Halloween, keep sending in your pictures!
