WTF happened overnight?
Chocolate Raaaaaaaain!!!!!
Anywho, I’m slow on the uptake lately. I’ve removed many communities from my friends list on LJ, I’ve stopped going to /b/.
Why?
Because HARRY POTTER is coming out in a few days and I’m fighting to not encounter any spoilers. So far I think I’ve only run into one small one, but I don’t want to ruin stuff for myself.
ZOMG HARRY POTTER MANIA. We’ll talk about how this series has shaped the world we see today.
I’ve started playing FFVIII again. Why am I feeling so nostalgic lately? Could this be considered old school? Will Square-Enix jump on the FFVIII bandwagon next?
Also, Square is jumping from console to console. Is this some plot to get hardcore fans to purchase multiple systems? Those sneaky bastards. We’ll talk about that too.
Got some awesome music too. And I’ll probably babble a bit as well. I’m not on my own network, so if there are any differences, I blame my Latino neighbors who don’t know how to secure their wireless. EL OH EL.

This episode is a quick con-report from Anime Expo 2007. We go over all the adventures we had, with Xenon, alcohol, dances, cosplay, Elite Beat Agents, and more. Next year the Con is at The LA Convention center, and that scares us. We got some great pictures and video which we’ll get up ASAP!

WE’RE CELEBRATING THE 69th SHOW WITH FLAAAIR
I’ve been downloading Sims 2 content for the past like, 6 hours. Yeah, I totally have a life.
Going to talk about fanfiction, gaming, and SEX. Yeah, SEX.


You know you’ve made it when…
They played it at GDC ‘07. Grats, guys. Many kudos!

On January 15th, 2007, The Burning Crusade was unleashed onto the world. I zipped down to the Fountain Valley Fry’s to get in on some of the excitement. There was around 1500 or so people by the end of the night. They did a good job with keeping people entertained, having a local radio station, and some hotdog and lunchcarts nearby. A Taruen even showed up to do a dance, (we found her myspace here!) After waiting in line for a few hours, we were finally let in, and wisked through the store. Tons and tons of developers were there, and I got tons of sigs on my collectors edition of the box.
Overall, it was actually less packed then. Semi-official numbers say there was no more then 2,000 people there, whereas the original game’s launch had 6,000 people at the same Fry’s. I attribute this to the distributed launch; lots of game store chains were having midnight openings, as well as there being 2 other official release parties, one in San Fran, another in Anaheim, and the last and probably most spectacular, at the Universal Citywalk, where the Wii release was held. Mad props to the Cyberangel, who toughed it out for most of the day on her day off.
Only this footage remains of the adventure:

A promising fan-film about Zelda. I can’t help but say ‘wow that’s some good Cosplay..’ because… well, it is good Cosplay.
