Let’s say you’re a Pokémon fanatic who needs a mask, whether it be for skiing, recreating your favorite scene from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, or hiding your face while filming your latest pr0n movie so your spouse doesn’t find out your side hobby. Whatever your motivation, textile extraordinaire Andrea has got you covered. Armed with her own pattern, twelve hours of spare time, and a buttload of yarn, she made this Pikachu ski mask for facial protection during the cold winter months. You know what she could say if she was trying to scare people while wearing it? Pika-BOO! Lawlz. Funniest. Joke. Ever.

Rorschach inkblot tests provide incredible insight into a person’s personality characteristics and emotional functioning. Regardless of the type of ambiguous design displayed, the answers and information gleaned from them are always fascinating. We’ve learned a tremendous amount about each other through our regular Halo 3 Heatmap tests, and I have no doubt today will prove just as entertaining as previous ones. Before we analyze another image though, let’s take a look at the results from the last one we did which took place back in October. The featured map was Heretic and Not Funny kicked off the comments with a Big Daddy reference. Entirely too many people to count found themselves agreeing.

Other video games are usually a popular answer during these festivities, but someone always brings it back to Halo. DieByYourUncleBob insisted the image bore resemblance to the Grunt Head emblem and numerous others, along with myself, saw it as well.

A few other interesting answers included mendicantbias00 saying Lego Princess Leia and Louis Wu citing Dr. Eggman. Unable to choose my favorite between the two, I thought I would leave it up to all of you to decide which one more resembles the Midship remake.

Right as we ran out of room for picture comparisons, I came across Noah’s response of goatse. Talk about bad timing! Unfortunately I’ll have to leave you to judge the similarity of the images in your head as it’s now time to dissect yet another Halo 3 Global Heatmap. The subject of our twelfth enlightening psychological evaluation is Orbital, a docking-station featuring two overlapping hallways. So tell me, what exactly do you see? And as always, extra nonexistent points for originality!

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.

I tend to not get excited about Halloween (probably because every day is Dress Like a Slut Day in my world) so when that less than magical holiday rolls around, I subtract an L, throw on my favorite Halo shirt, and call it good. Heather agrees with my overall sentiments but puts a little more effort into her annual ensembles. Crafting a Jackal mask from eyeballs, teeth, and other random body parts that were scattered about her basement, all she has left is slapping on a few more feathers and then this costume can be called complete. Halloween may have already come and gone, but Thanksgiving is right around the corner. As if you need an excuse to crave some of that deliciously moist meat.
