The art of the selfie

The art of the selfie

Selfies have become a big thing in recent years thanks to mobile phones having cameras in them. But they've also become a big thing in video games. The 'selfie mode' is great fun in the likes of GTA 5 or Tearaway, but what about the games that don't have one?

Well, it turns out they don't need one. I've made friends with several game characters during my time at GR, which means I can see their Facebook and Twitter pics (read: I've Photoshopped them). Turns out they're just as vain as we are. So 'snap' out of this opening slide and 'click' on through to see said pics and read the descriptions that I found with them.

Chell (from Portal)

Chell (from Portal)

Chell's personal description: "Bet @GordonFreeman would love one of these. #nowyourethinkingwithjealousy"

Best comment from friends: [From @GlaDOS] "I think you are forgetting that you have no friends. Even @CompanionCube's personal account has been deleted because you killed him. Please return to the testing program. Failure to do so will result in suspension of your internet privileges followed by death."

Ryo Hazuki (from Shenmue)

Ryo Hazuki (from Shenmue)

Ryo's personal description: "Megumi and I have been caring for this kitten in Sakuragaoka for a while. Looks like his leg is healing nicely! Soon as it has, I will definitely crack on with avenging my father's death."

Best comment from friends: [From @FukuharaMasayuki] "Ryo-san! Ine-san doesn't have an account but she says the picture is lovely. She also says 'please don't avenge your father's death because she is worried about you'. Oh, @Nozomi says she wishes you cared about her as much as you do that kitten because every time she talks to you, she's screaming 'JUST KISS ME ALREADY' in her head but that's a secret so I mustn't tell you, Ryo-san. See you later!"

Sonic (from Sonic the Hedgehog)

Sonic (from Sonic the Hedgehog)

Sonic's personal description: "Just found this old picture I took in the Final Zone of Egg-face jumping up and down on a sign that says 'End'. Always did wonder where he got that from. And why he cared so much about flattening it. 'Mega' times though, right?"

Best comment from friends: [From @AmyRose] "Oh, Sonic - you look so handsome in that picture! You're my hero! By the way, I notice you still haven't changed your relationship status to 'in a relationship'. That's OK, I bet you just forgot. Silly billy! You can do it when you read this. Bye!"

Lara Croft (from Tomb Raider Underworld)

Lara Croft (from Tomb Raider Underworld)

Lara's personal description: "Days like this are the reason I got into the job! Look at the size of the bloody thing! It must be incredibly rare, possibly even the only one in existence. A real scientific breakthrough. Took ages to kill, lol."

Best comment from friends: [From @sam95] "Ummm... maybe you shouldn't kill *everything* you see, babe. I mean, that T-Rex you found would have been of much more scientific value if it wasn't 50% mush and 50% lead by the time you finished with it. Not criticising, hun, just saying."

Something about a question?

Something about a question?

I'll level with you. I can't really ask 'but what do you think?' or 'What selfies have you taken recently?' because that wouldn't work in the comments here. So... whassup? That'll have to do. If you enjoyed this, do share it around using the share center thing up there. You can Tweet, Facebook or GooglePlus it. AND MOAR.
