Some people enjoy gaming as a favorite pastime while others simply cannot resist taking their obsession to the next level. The Dedicated Gamer is about the passionate, talented, and sometimes flat out psycho people who love their video games and find interesting and impressive ways to express that eternal adoration. Whether it’s through confectionery delights, cosplay, or specialized crafts, all of these gamers have one thing in common: they’re nothing if not dedicated.

<3 the case mods. Particularly the Aperture Science one. Hell, all of these are pretty cool.

<3 the cake mods
Posted by G4M3SL4Y3R on April 13, 2009 at 2:39 am
Wow, the cake is a lie! i’d remember that (just started up the game again a week or two ago!)
too bad my pc aint holding it, at the first boss (the large one hanging on the ceiling with these eyes you need to destroy) my pc tilted and rebooted over and over :(
Awesome game, and nice pics! :)
Posted by Randew on May 20, 2009 at 8:18 am
actually, not only is that the first boss, its the last boss too. In fact: its the only boss… there are probably lots of youtube videos if you wanted to just cheat to watch the ending.
Posted by Err on May 20, 2009 at 2:54 pm
I hope that he didn’t read that. Srsly. Wtf are you doing ruining a dramatic ending? _O
Posted by Daryo on May 21, 2009 at 1:59 am
I wouldn’t call that ruining it. He didn’t say what happens. Also, if you’ve played through that much game and think that’s the “first” boss, maybe a point in the right direction is a good thing

Regarding some of the first posts, originally there was going to be almost 1/3 more gameplay where you find your way out and… well we don’t know what else really. They’re probably retooling those story elements for Portal 2.
Posted by Mat on June 26, 2009 at 8:40 pm
Also, he did say he’s been playing for two weeks and has only just gotten there.

Posted by bs angel on April 13, 2009 at 10:10 am
I hadn’t seen any of the costumes before I did this article either. Super cute!
Posted by Ryan on September 2, 2009 at 5:05 am
Not a massive fan of portal but some of these are pretty cool. And the first costume is soooo cute!! =D
Posted by Visitor at home on April 13, 2009 at 5:10 am
Brilliant. Slightly creepy, but still brilliant.
Seriously, where do you find this stuff?
Posted by Das Kalk on April 13, 2009 at 5:49 am
Nice, I am getting a tattoo at the end of the month, it’s the marathon Symbol :)
Posted by Dragnew on April 13, 2009 at 1:29 pm
That is one of the most awesome things I’ve ever heard. You, sir, are what we like to call a winner.
Posted by Ragingterror on April 13, 2009 at 5:50 am
Those case mods are slick. Do want.
Posted by LAZR Blade 14 on April 13, 2009 at 12:20 pm
I like the 4th to last one.
Posted by mysterioso2006 on April 13, 2009 at 1:11 pm
I officially name this the best thread I’ve ever seen on this site! I’d name a fav, but I like every single one!
Posted by LordOsiris on April 13, 2009 at 2:11 pm
Fucking Amazing. All of them.
Posted by Downandout on April 13, 2009 at 2:52 pm

Posted by skibur on April 13, 2009 at 4:20 pm
Not a Portal fan, but this stuff was pretty cool.
That last one ruined it for me, though.
Posted by GeneralCupcakes on April 13, 2009 at 4:42 pm
I’m making a note here — HUGE SUCCESS
Posted by Mace Windex on April 13, 2009 at 7:01 pm
Too bad the tattoo reads like “LOVE” and “LLES”
Posted by Rhamsey on April 14, 2009 at 8:01 am
i want that portal gun so bad.

[...] Cosplaying as the companion cube itself is overboard… Probably worse then people who want to dress up as Pokémon characters *ahem* [...]
Posted by setters on April 14, 2009 at 1:32 pm
woah – they are all fantastic!!
massive want on the knitted and crocheted companion cubes – so i can see at least 2 new projects coming up :)
Posted by deora on April 30, 2009 at 9:03 am
i really want the apature PC case. PLEASE?
Posted by Bleachy on May 19, 2009 at 10:08 pm
I want the girl dressed as the Weithed Companion Cube in my bed right fucking now.
Posted by Arbiter_of_culture on May 20, 2009 at 1:27 am
Let it go guys. It took long enough for this stupid meme to die.
Posted by chris on May 20, 2009 at 1:57 am
ehh, its an awesome game, but short and not very replayable. in that respect, the more you see of people taking it too seriously, the more creations and the more bandwaggon-hopping, it almost becomes like a movie that sold out to franchising. it’s everywhere, the “cake is a lie” became the fastest failing joke ever after its extreme overuse in forum posting and blog commenting. the more I see of it the less I like it.
Posted by steve on May 20, 2009 at 3:51 pm
I really really want those shoes.
Those are amazing.
Posted by hazzaa on May 20, 2009 at 4:44 pm
i <3 companion cube
Posted by hazzaa on May 20, 2009 at 4:44 pm

Posted by Andrew on May 20, 2009 at 8:46 pm
Cool, I want that cake!
Posted by . on May 20, 2009 at 10:35 pm
All of them but the sushi one is nice looking.
Posted by Anonymous on May 21, 2009 at 12:01 am
That last girl is not wearing a damn thing under that costume.
Posted by PussyMonster on May 21, 2009 at 3:19 am
I want the girl in the last pic. Could you email me her phone number?
Posted by piepiepie on May 24, 2009 at 10:50 pm
i have never played this game before i just used my stumble upon button and it took me here for some reason…the cakes look really good though(if i had to choose between a box that means love and a cake that means lies I’d probably pick the cake)
Posted by piepiepie on May 24, 2009 at 10:51 pm
ha ha i probably would too
Posted by Jackie on May 29, 2009 at 11:18 pm
Well, you’d be disappointed, because the cake is THE lie.
Posted by Navanafti on May 30, 2009 at 12:10 am
The fifth one is the coolest case mod I’ve seen in a long time.
Posted by Keegan on June 7, 2009 at 6:59 pm
The Aperture Science Computer is AWESOME.
Compainion Cube = Overrated.
Posted by mcnaryxc on July 20, 2009 at 7:13 pm
Hey, thanks for putting my case mod on here. Mine is the 5th one down on the list with the CCube stuck on top. I entered the case mod into a CPU Mag contest but got 2nd to Boddaker with the famous BSG case mod. It’s my first mod so I’m glad you guys like it. THE CAKE IS A LIE!!! XD
Posted by bs angel on July 20, 2009 at 8:02 pm
I would say it deserved first! Great job. :)
Posted by mcnaryxc on July 20, 2009 at 8:47 pm
Thanks! I appreciate it! :o)

She made that plush turret herself! It even supports itself on its little legs!
