    Default Ever seen someone that looked like a game character?

    I have, On Several occasions. The first time, I saw a girl who looked like the character "Cube" From jet grind radio. The second time, I saw someone dressed up in Purple overalls and a black shirt, Like waluigi. I think he was wearing a purple hat too.

    So, Have you ever seen someone that looked like a videogame character?

    I have a friend who looks like Selphie from FF8 and another who could pass for Jill Valentine from Resident Evil.

    If you're only talking about the way someone is dressed, then forget I said anything.

    No, I've never came across anyone that looked like the images below. If I ever do I'll be sure to alert the National Enquirer.

    There's a thread in here somewhere that has a link to website that has a list of celebrities that look like video game characters. It's pretty funny, maybe somebody can find the link.

    Did you punch him in the face for looking like a lame video game character?


    Outside of the obligatory cosplayers, I've never ever seen anyone who looks like a video game character.

    Possibility is infinity! You must be satisfied!

    I had a friend whose dad was a bus driver, and all the kids called him "Mario." He could have fit the part, too.

    A couple of years ago, we had a salesman working for us (I work for a car dealership) that looked EXACTLY like Mario. Better yet, his real (yes legal) first name was actually Mario. He didn't speak Italian but he did speak fluent Spanish and would complete entire deals from start to finish in Spanish, if the customer desired (usually construction workers buying new trucks). He was an AWSOME sales person, both in sales numbers and respect among customers and employees. Given that, we gave him the nick-name "Super Mario", yeah.....not original, but pretty fun! *Sigh* he had to leave to take care of his ill mother across the country. We will miss him!

    yup

    for a while I think it may have been intentional. he had the same curly hair, a hanging chain around his waist and seemed to always wear a red tank.

    I'm dead serious here

    I'm always too distracted by the fact that he's trying to sell Bubsy for 15 bucks.

    Anyway, I know a girl who looks like Casey Lynch from Guitar Hero. When she saw me playing it I was like "Hey what are you doing in this game." She was creeped out by all the similarities.

    I have a friend who looks just like one of those Carpenters in Kakariko Village in Ocarina of Time. The one who just jogs endlessly around town.

    I couldn't, I saw him in walmart. I would have bean in some deep stuff if I did that. But he wasn't thin.

    My sister used to look like Yuna (Final Fantasy X-2), and a girl that works at Gamestop used to look like Daisy (Super Mario Land, though she looked more like the Mario Kart: DoubleDash version).

    I'd be nice if I knew a girl close to my age who looked like Crystal (The female trainer from Pokemon Crystal)

    Just be cool with him, he might end up calling G. Andore and U. Andore to get you.

    This dude looks a little like Mario. Yeah, I know it's not that funny and I lifted it from Seanbaby's web site but I nearly die laughing every time I read the article (http://www.seanbaby.com/nes/mark.htm) on this guy.



    In all seriousness, I lived on a college campus with a musician dude named Mark who was a spitting image for deceased pro wrestler Ray Traylor, aka The Big Bossman (WWF). Same body type, facial hair and even the same eyes. At the time, Ray Traylor was still alive and I think he was even wrestling in the World Wrestling Federation again, his second run there. You wouldn't believe all the times people told him he looked like The Big Bossman. It went on for years. Some friends and I gave him the nickname "Hard Time." I suppose this may count a little since The Big Bossman (and/or Ray Traylor) was reproduced in at least a couple of different wrestling games.
