Welcome to NY Comic-Con

Welcome to NY Comic-Con

Alright, so maybe you missed the festivities in NY this year. But Complex has you covered with the best video-game related cosplayers we saw at Comic-Con. We saw a ton of costumes, and in particular a lot of Dead Pool characters, but here they are in still image format for you to feast your eyes on.

We may not be as big as San Diego's comic convention, but we still dress to impress.

Minecraft dude

Minecraft dude

We thought something was wrong with our camera when we looked at this photo later, but no, it's just the wonderful world of Minecraft. Where of where did he ever get that pickax?

Mega Man and some random lady

Mega Man and some random lady

This mustached Mega Man sure was generous. So generous, that we couldn't get him in a pic without somebody standing next to him. Thankfully, we didn't see him and Cut Man in the same room. Shit would have gone off.

Chell from Portal

The Cube is a lie. It's fake. Still, cool costume.

Chun-Li and Sub-Zero

Finish him!!!...Chun-li

Taskmaster from Marvel vs. Capcom 3

Taskmaster from Marvel vs. Capcom 3

You see, the MvC series IS important. It makes lesser-known characters like Taskmaster relevant. And the the comic heads rejoice.

Poison from Final Fight/Street Fighter X Tekken

Poison from Final Fight/Street Fighter X Tekken

We really wanted to ask this beautiful lady's take on Poison being a transgender character and all, but we wussed out. She might have taken it the wrong way.

Alice from American McGhee's Alice

Alice from American McGhee's Alice

Alice, minus all the glitches from the last game.

Shuma-Gorath from Marvel vs. Capcom 2

Shuma-Gorath from Marvel vs. Capcom 2

What this costume lacks in tentacles it gains in obscurity points.

Deadpool from Marvel vs. Capcom 3

Deadpool from Marvel vs. Capcom 3

This Deadpool was one in about a billion that we saw at Comic-Con. It was definitely the most worn costume at the show. Kudos for the jerks who kept shouting, "Hey! Your Spiderman costume looks weird!" Ha! Clever.

Viewtiful Joe from Viewtiful Joe and Taki from Soul Caliber

Viewtiful Joe from Viewtiful Joe and Taki from Soul Caliber

We still think, "Henshin a go-go, baby!" is the dumbest catchphrase ever, but we still can't hate on this Viewtiful Joe costume. And Taki's looking pretty tough, too.

Heavy from Team Fortress 2

Heavy from Team Fortress 2

We did NOT envy this guy for lugging around this gun the entire time. It seriously did look heavy, just as the character's namesake and class.

Cutman from Mega Man

Cutman from Mega Man

We seriously wanted to defeat this guy and take his weapon. It was the best in the game, after all.

Chrono from Chrono Trigger

Chrono from Chrono Trigger

Remember when we said Captain N was our favorite costume? Well, we lied. Nothing beats our favorite time traveling hero from our favorite time traveling game. Chrono Trigger, we heart you.

Bane with Batman doll

Bane with Batman doll

The Batman doll, which this costumed Bane would occasionally raise high in the air and then slam down on his knee, totally sold this costume. Can't wait for The Dark Knight Rises this summer, y'all.

A Foot Soldier from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

A Foot Soldier from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

"Clang? did you just say 'Clang'? We actually said this to the guy and he just laughed. He was probably thinking, "You fuckin' nerds."

The Explosive bird in Angry Birds

The Explosive bird in Angry Birds

There were actually not as many Angry Birds costumes than we thought we'd find. This just happens to be the best out of the three or four. Big fans of the, "Badaboom."

The Mario Bros.

The Mario Bros.

Simple and plain, but it's nice to see the Mario Bros. (Mario Mario and Luigi Mario, of course) hanging out together. Gotta love Mario with The Adventures of Tin Tin bag.

Captain N from Captain N: The Game Master

Captain N from Captain N: The Game Master

Words cannot describe how much we love this costume. It's so simple, but come on, it's Captain N: The Game Master. The only thing better is if he had a posse of a green Mega Man, a giant chinned Simon Belmont, and Pit from Kid Icarus, we'd award this best costume of the show. No question.

Yuna from Final Fantasy X-2

Yuna from Final Fantasy X-2

Now HERE'S the Yuna we like. The one from the BETTER Final Fantasy X. (Yeah, we said it).

Zero and Strider

Zero and Strider

Newly formed rivals thanks to Strider's addition to the Ultimate MvC3 line-up doesn't keep these two from striking a pose together. And while they may be friends today, they'll be level three, air comboing each other to hell starting next month. What a thrill!

A Big Daddy from BioShock

A Big Daddy from BioShock

We're not going to lie. We nearly shit ourselves when we saw this costume because we were afraid we would see a similarly dressed Little Sister nearby. Those girls scare the hell out of us.

Ash and Misty from Pokemon

Ash and Misty from Pokemon

Gotta catch 'em all...people dressed as Ash and Misty, that is. We spotted quite a few of them on the show floor, but this was definitely the best pair we found. And the Togepi doesn't hurt, either.

A Spartan soldier from Halo

A Spartan soldier from Halo

Props to the dude for this beastly costume. The suit looks heavy as hell to be walking around in all day. And holding that gun couldn't help. Again, props to the dude.

Advance Wars

Advance Wars

We got a high-five from these guys when we shouted, "Advance Wars!" when we saw them. Apparently, a lot of people never even heard of this series. How could they not? Advance Wars is the shiiiit.

Dante from Devil May Cry

Dante from Devil May Cry

Jacket, looks authentic. Hair, looks authentic. Pop guns with orange caps, not so much. But hey, we're just thankful he didn't go with the new, emo-looking Dante from the next Devil May Cry. We'll take this badass look any day.
