I lived for the Medievil games back when they first came out. I thought they were the greatest thing to have ever hit the planet. I was majorly into Medieval things back then and these games just sent me into overdrive. The idea of being a Skeletal Knight, hacking up zombies, dragons, solving puzzles. My idea of heaven!
I think even put down Dan Fortesque as my hero once in class, which got me a few strange looks as people didn't know who he was. Fun times.
He pretty much faded into obscurity after 2000, little outing in Ressurection but he's never resurfaced since.
Technically I've already done this cosplay once, when I was about 7 for halloween, although the resemblance was minimal. Seens also as it's ten years since the first game was released why not honour the old fellow with a cosplay.
