Check out the best costumes that we saw at PAX Prime this year in Seattle.
Perhaps my favorite activity at gaming conventions nowadays is carrying around the trusty Panasonic Lumix camera on my right hip and whipping it out whenever I see a gamer dressed in an awesome costume. PAX Prime 2011 was no different and I saw all kinds of cosplay ranging from anime to videogames to the future girlfriend of John Finkel.
I’ll let you guess which girl I’m talking about. Without further ado, here are the best costumes that I personally saw at PAX this year.
Share and enjoy!

I know Mario-themed cosplay is an easy choice, but this Princess Peach was pretty damn good.

The eyes, don’t look at the eyes. Or the butterflies.

Don’t mess with Jedi ladies.

Spoiler Alert: Aerith is totally not happy with this picture being taken.

Russ Pitts knows better than to offer his cranium to zombies like that.

The skirt has a hoop so she can pick up the skirt when she wants to walk (I asked).

What’s cooler – her shades or his hat?
