Now you can play as bounty hunter Samus Aran in Unreal Tournament III. Modder Arcand has released a custom skin that players can load up on their PlayStation 3 to play as the star-studded Nintendo mascot.

The model comes complete with an alternate armor set, maskless face, and gun arm. Not bad. Though the legality of this is somewhat questionable, I don’t forsee Nintendo taking legal action unless the mod gets fairly popular.
