In the latest issue of The Official Xbox 360 Magazine, costume design "commune" Nightmare Armor Studios built their own Gears of War Delta Squad — with armor and everything &mdash and showed up at Epic Games for a photo op. That's Nightmare Armor Studios founder Sid Garrand as a damn convincing Marcus Fenix. He should so do birthday's and bar mitzvahs! Next to him is Gears lead designer CliffyB, who's cosplaying as a guy with brown hair. And below that's Epic Vice President Mark Rein rockin' the khaki cargoes. Nothing says Gears of War quite like khaki pulled high. And a polo shirt. A yellow polo shirt.

If you're crafty, the OXM article also gives a run down on how to make your own Delta armor. Check it out. Brian Ashcraft
