Quantcast

The most unlikely gaming lookalikes you'll ever see

Game characters and their real-life face doubles in our gallery of misshapen identities

Words: Matt Cundy, GamesRadar UK

If you want to see Nelson Mandela's digitized doppelganger in Wind Waker or to stare aghast at the unnerving mug shot similarities between His Holiness the Pope and a short-assed nut job from Resident Evil 4, then you're in the right place. We've rounded up a dozen game characters and slapped them side-by-identical-side with their real-life, practically separated at birth, most uncanny face doubles that you're ever going to point your disbeliefing eyes at. So stop reading and start staring at our gatheration of spitting images.

Andy Warhol seems to look like a lot of final fantasy guys for some reason.

if you think borat and mario are similar in any way, there's a 100% chance you are drunk. also ramon looks like a demon pirate and pope benedict XVI does not. obiously master chief looks like some kind of device like a vaccum cleaner, his head is basically based on one of those. halo looks like a compilation of every game mode from a good first person shooter that sucked. i prefer non regenerative health, instead, health pickups and different weapons and vehicles would be nice every now and then.

It's funny where charcter designers get their inspiration from. Or are these just coincidences? Does the Pope play RE4 often?
