'Simple' costume for a party - Computer games related!

[SideWinder]

Right, i have a bit of time...party is on the 12th of January and the theme is and i quote...

"come as your favourite characters from any computer games, films based on games, or games based on films. either way, you must exist in the computer game world!"

Any ideas? Also, i would prefer to buy something from a shop as opposed to the internet. I'm based in SW15 so close to the majority of London shops.

But internet is the way to go!

I found this for GoW but apparently its VERY expensive and they haven't started selling yet!

Oooo, i could find an UT costume...Master Chief looks promising...only downside for internet is that i'm quite slim so want to ensure it fits right.

Suprised the obvious hasn't come up yet: Mario or related characters?

 

[Lagmeister]

Large cardboard box, cut a jagged edge at the bottom, spray paint, yellow/blue/pink/orange, two large eyes on the front

Pacman ghost (holes for arms/head/etc... optional)

edit: Damn you tomsk, that'll teach me to read multiple threads at the same time

 

[Nitefly]

Dress up as an army man, BF, COD etc.

He would get beaten up for admitting that the Army Men games were his favourite.

Indeed, if you're of large mass go mario if you're skinny go luigi. Or if you wanna go drag go princess peach
