Ready Player One’s new trailer is out and it features cameos by both Tracer and Chun-Li. The Overwatch and Street Fighter characters respectively are charging into a fight around the two minute mark. Another scene has what appears to be the Battle Toads. No doubt there are more references in there as well.

Well, you gotta wear something when you get your license photo, don't you?

Back when Kotaku asked who pulled off the best Chun-Li cosplay, there seems to have been one glaring omission: this.

San Fransisco based artist Kevin Wada does a delightful take on Pokémon in his piece. Initially, I was only going to post this image.

As far as video game characters get, few are as iconic as Street Fighter's Chun-Li. She's not only a player favorite, but also a fan one. Many a cosplayer has donned her qipao. But who wore it best? Let's find out.

People often complain that there's an overabundance of zombie-based video games, or that zombies are the new bacon, overindulged in to the point of nausea. Judging by pieces like Deviant artist Dantemustdie00's "Sonic Zombies", perhaps we're just injecting the undead into the wrong titles.

This isn't the Chun-Li I remember! But it doesn't matter much because look how awesome that animation is. I can watch her loop around for that hit too many times than is normal.

Music has its Elvis impersonators, but video games? Video games have cosplayers, but there's a difference in the nuance. "Cosplay" implies an element of play—as though you are going from outfit to outfit. Not this lady.

Meet Mei Wei. She's one of China's top coplayers (or "coser" as they're called there). She appears in Chinese cosplay mags, at game promotions, and at event after event.

Dominique "Chun-Li" Vance and Lane "Cammy" Kwederis do a fine just looking and acting their roles in Eddie Lebron's live-action ode to Capcom's Street Fighter franchise. Unfortunately they battle like a couple of actresses brand new to fight choreography.

Chun-Li makes everything better—whether that be Jackie Chan movies or South Korean pop.

Cammy and Chun-Li settle their differences in this ass kicking Street Fighter illustration by Fung Kin Chew. Fight!

Last week, in Miami, Yoshinori Ono, the cheerful, jokey lead producer of the Street Fighter series had just shown off his team's new game, Street Fighter X Tekken. He and I were just about done talking about it.
