Yesterday's release of Luigi's Mansion 3 was perfect for a number of reasons. Firstly, it's a pretty wonderful game, then there's the fact that the ghostbusting title launched on Halloween of all days, and now... Well, now we have this.
Not content with simply having the game on display, the Telford branch of UK retailer GAME decided to share its passion for the game in its own, special way. The man you're about to see is Steve, a figure who's becoming increasingly popular online thanks to a number of funny videos shared to the official GAME Telford Twitter account. This time, he's merged Luigi's Mansion 3 with Queen's classic, 'I Want To Break Free'.

A particular favourite moment of ours was when the poor child in the background seemingly pressed some kind of inner rewind button, aiming to hide from the spooky goings-on a little further down the store.

Even if you don't live near Telford, or indeed in the UK, we'd still argue that it's worth giving the account a follow. Otherwise you'll be missing out on regular oddities like this.

Keep it up, Steve!

Who is that Luigi cosplayer ? 🤣
Edit: Wait a minute...
That gave me idea about vacuuming activity and house maid. 😀
@Anti-Matter It's probably best to keep that idea to yourself 😉
That's my local Game
I believe that the 'cosplayer' is the Store Manager
He could have actually vaccuum cleaned while he was at it
In before some snarklord comments something like 'No wonder they're failing financially if they're messing around like this. I buy all my games from insert independent business anyway. Also, everything is Nintendo's fault for some reason'
My opinion? It's dedication to the job
Hilarious, [removed], scary....
He wants to break free.
@YozenFroghurt Someone always has to bring politics into something, sigh... You people just can't stop.
Am I the only one seeing the resemblance, physique aside, to Graham Chapman here? It's like he's back from the dead....spooky! But awesome.
Also that kid is my new "nope" gif for life....
I don't live in the UK but Steve is my favorite store manager of all time.
But do you really need to try to sell Luigi's Mansion? lol
I’d buy my games from that store, that’s a lot of dedication.
That is awesome. Those of us that worked in retail can probably appreciate the effort a tiny smidgen more, too
Props to Steve for keeping games fun.
Parents are going to be kicking themselves for not thinking of this costume for Halloween.
The opportunity to convince your kid to vacuum the entire house doesn’t happen all that often.
@Aquamine-Amarine Why not? Such is life. It may be a little pessimistic, but beyond a doubt there is much segregation in class, ethnicity and religion in the UK. I gave him a like. Also, Anti-Matter made a comment that didn't show his interest in the same sex, even looked a little like he might even be shooting for the other team, so to speak. Don't get me wrong, I found his comments to be banal and repetitious, but it was free speech. Now, people think he's making a straight comment... Guess, what? Actually got 5 times the up votes, rather than down votes. Pretty lame up in here.
@Kienda I would hope without the suspenders and longer, erm, suspenders/skirt?
@Jayofmaya Haha. Yeah, I just meant a Luigi costume with a vacuum, tights are optional.
I want to like this game, but is it anything other than walking around and using the vacuum? There’s no jumping? Fighting? Weapons?
@Rilude
Tell him he's a marketing genius!
@Mgene15 It’s a puzzle game, and you use the vacuum to solve puzzles and fight/capture ghosts, with boss battles at the end of each level/floor.
I applaud his effort but no Nintendo game needs this kind of advertising lol
This right here is a beautiful person.
Lovely! This is how you promote a game!
