VGXPO 2008

Video Game Expo 2008

Alright so today I went to the VGXPO today for most of the day and I have to say although it probably wasn't an E3 it definatley pulled out the stops, not only were the game tournaments of games such as SSB and Halo 3. But they even had pitch your game idea sessions which I missed unfortunately how to break into the game programming and designing scheme and other activities. It came to Philadelphia so I was pretty happy that I was able to go.

DDR Room and Anime Convention

They had a room with a huge screen where around 32 players were playing DDR at the same time, I played it about three times twice by myself and once with all my other friends. There was also an Anime Festival by there as well where I got a rice hat and a custom pin that had a chibi version of Halloween Town Sora, my friend got a chibi version of Axel. We even met a few cosplayer's, I hung out with a a group that had L from Death Note, Shino and Gaara from Naruto, and Roxas, Zexion, and Riku from Kingdom Hearts. We also met the Ice Climbers, with hammers and rope to. Also Ness and Kumatora from the Mother series. We decided to make a moc-cosplay outfit right there, my friend put some eyeliner on and he was L. Me and my toher friends bought the rice hats and we were Raiden Modern Day, and Raiden Modern Day Player 2, to parody how characters usually get color edits when they pick the same characters. Have conventions ever came to your town, have you ever went to a convention or have you ever cosplayed?
