Elizabeth Lookalike Gets the Gig of Playing the Bioshock Infinite Character in Advertising
Fans were left disappointed after the cover for Irrational Games’ upcoming Bioshock Infinite was revealed. Irrational’s latest move in how Bioshock Infinite is presented, is to employ a cosplayer to become Elizabeth while they’re marketing the game.
The Russian born Ormeli (real name, Anna Moleva), is on the back of the uninspired game box, will be making appearances at certain events, and possibly showing up in a live-action ad, according to Ken Levine on Irrational’s Blog, which we saw thanks to Kotaku.
“We were so amazed by her dedication and her resemblance to Elizabeth that we decided to ask her if she’d like to be involved in helping bring Elizabeth to life in our box, our key art and our upcoming television ad.”
I have a feeling that the live-action ad will be a bit better than the game sleeve…well, I hope so.
Bioshock Infinite will be released on February 26, 2013 for Windows PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3

How's things? I'm the video guy and would love if you'd watch the things I do like Debatable and For Your Amusement. I spend the majority of my days explaining why The Wire is the greatest TV show ever and clamouring for a Pop-Punk revival(c. 1994) whilst singing in my best Axl Rose-esque voice. Do not say professional wrestling is “fake” around me or, he’ll bore you with, what I like to call, “the risks they take”. Henrik Larsson is my hero.

Oh...and it's pronounced, "Cull-um".
