Without all the gorgeous ladies dressing up in their finest costumes, Halloween certainly wouldn't be the same. Sure, they may not all be terrifying, but they certainly are easy on the eyes. Without you the annual parties would be nothing but spiked punch and frat boys.
This is a tribute to all the gorgeous gamer gals that'll be dressing up in their favourite video game themed costumes this year. We may be too old to get excited about candy, but catching a glimpse of one of these outfits on all hallow's eve is a treat we can all get enthusiastic about. Of all the possible video game costumes fitted for beautiful ladies, these are the most tried, tested, and true.
Alice
Alice
Game: American McGee's Alice
Alice makes one of the best costumes for Halloween because not only is she sexy, but she's scary as hell too. Then again, scary can be sexy. Alice hits that nice point in the middle, especially when coupled with a stare that can pierce skin. Just be careful about this one, she's likely to go all You Oughta Know if things don't work out quite the way she plans.
Misty
Misty
Game: Pokemon
Like a faithful friend, Misty's always been at Ash's side. With her girl-next-door looks it's a wonder they never got more intimate on the show. Her ginger hair and firey attitude may have you forgetting her love of water type Pokemon, but I bet if you try hard enough you can make her Squirtle.
Juliet Starling
Juliet Starling
Game: Lollipop Chainsaw
A newcomer to the managere of Halloween hotties, but one that's likely here to stay. Lollipop Chainsaw may have been met with mixed reactions, but Juliet Starling has been forever burned into our collective fantasies thanks to Capcom and Jessica Nigiri's world-class cosplay. Just think, you could be the lucky guy whose decapitated head gets to hang hip-high on her all night.
Zero Suit Samus
Zero Suit Samus
Game: Metroid
What's hotter than a space-faring bounty hunter with an electric whip? One who's not wearing 10 tons of armor. Stripped down into nothing but her blues, Zero Suit Samus is definitely drool worthy. Get on her bad side and, like her baby Metroid, she might suck the life essence right out of you.
Kitana
Kitana
Game: Mortal Kombat
There are plenty of femme fatale characters in Mortal Kombat to base costumes off, but unlike Mileena, you don't need to fear a gnarly set of razor sharp teeth behind her cowl. She may still cut your head off with her razor sharp fans, but at least she's forthcoming about the way she'll dismember you.
Lara Croft
Lara Croft
Game: Tomb Raider
Lara is an old standby, but there's a good reason for that. She's sexy without being frail, powerful without being masculine, and those booty shorts are as dangerous as her guns on the right ass. There are plenty of iconic Lara looks that have popped up over the years, but the new one based off next year's release just might have the most going for it.
Silent Hill Nurse
The Nurses
Game: Silent Hill
Undead mutant demon things from hell may not be your particular fetish, but when they're also sexy nurses, it's a completely different story. The best part about bumping into one of these on the street is that you've got no reason to look in her eyes, she doesn't have any!
Tifa Lockhart
Tifa Lockhart
Game: Final Fantasy VII
An oldie, but a goodie. Tifa Lockhart has everything a hot video game costume needs. It's easy to put together, instantly recognizable, and jaw-droppingly gorgeous. There's something magic about suspenders that can't quite make it all the way down to their clips without bending. Whatever force is causing this phenomenon deserves a lot of appreciation.
Poison
Poison
Game: Street Fighter X Tekken
Tiny shirt, pink hair, short shorts. What's not to like about Poison? The costume itself is simple and easy to make - if you've got a stacked closet, all you'll really need is a wig. Just be careful boys, Posion may look fine and all but it can be a little hard to tell whether she's packing a trick or a treat.
Cammy
Cammy
Game: Street Fighter
Ain't she sweet? Cammy has been the subject of many nerd fantasies, and how could she not? With that tight-fitting onesie putting her assets on display, it's hard not to fall for her. Just try not to be a total creep and stare if anyone wearing this costume happens to have a case of Cammy toe.
