Yeah, the Wonder Woman cosplay is good, but I'll see your Wonder Woman cosplay and raise you this Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite cosplay.

Here's the character in the game:

They ended up hiring her, which is pretty cool.

Yeah, very.

That cosplayer landed a job with the game publisher as the official face of Bioshock Infinite at events and things, thanks to her amazing costume.

Which as Erin says above, is pretty cool. It's not just the costume(s) though, it's her. Really uncanny resemblance (and let's be honest, she's a very beautiful young lady). I've seen other publicity art for the game in which the Elizabeth drawn by the artist doesn't look as much like the game Elizabeth as this girl actuall does in real life.

Good Lord, she's _perfect_.

Cute too.
