Greetings from Gaming!

This year, if you are planning a costume from a video game, we want to see you in gaming! You may stop by the gaming room any time to have your photo taken, and we will put up a special gallery after the con just for the video game characters. We're also considering a large group shot for a couple games - i.e., all Final Fantasy Characters, all fighting game characters, etc. Let me know what you think!

Thanks all,

Morgan
Gaming Room Coordinator

A quick note about the hall next to Gaming.

That hall might be busier than I expected. The exhibitor hall downstairs is planning on using the driveway as its only entrance so people will likely be walking in and out that exit a lot as they go shopping.

So much for the great photo taking plan.

Oh I *DO* hope the following game characters show up:
(1) from the very first video game ever, PONG, let's see the white paddle and ball. :lol:
(2) from the game HACK (note lack of "dot"...this is the original game, also sometimes known as "Rogue")... the main character "@" :lol:

Please please please.

Vondan: Guy would be happy to be the other pong paddle. Do you have MP3s of the sounds from the original game (originated around 1957...) ? This could be fun or at least painfully silly. We may have to have a random "guest appearance" even if you aren't entered in Cosplay...

I'd like to see a skit to this - pong back and forth for a minute or two, then all of a sudden pac man crashes the party and eats the ball. Then crazy flashing lights and techno dancing. Yes?

You going to volunteer to make the PacMan outfit? :lol:
Could be a super silly hit.
Of course, the shorter the better...

That's a lot more yellow styrofoam than I think I could handle!

Sure, as long as it's from a video game. We'll have an update con weekend as to when and where the group photos will take place.

I'm planning on being one of two tetris pieces if all goes good with that and I have a heartless mascot costume so I'd be very happy if we did a photshoot!

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #11 on:** March 20, 2007, 05:23:01 pm »

I'm hoping to get a big Guilty Gear group going to Kumoricon~ If not I know at least a couple of my friends as well as me will be there as GG people so we'll be sure to come to gaming ;3

I'll be cosplaying as Shadow the Hedgehog again this year. =3 He's from the Sonic the Hedgehog video game series. I don't know which day I'll be cosplaying as him however.. It all depends on which day the Death Note photoshoot is. ^^;

But yes, this is definately a good idea!

cocacat15 · « **Reply #13 on:** April 12, 2007, 04:14:06 pm »

I have a cosplay of Mithos from the game Tales of Symphonia that I made for and wore at SakuraCon this year... I'll probably bring that with me and wear it at some point during the weekend. I'll be sure to drop by! ^_^

HeavenscloneX · « **Reply #14 on:** April 13, 2007, 01:34:24 am »

Almost all of my cosplays are video game characters. XD

Zack from FFVII: Crisis Core
Dante from Devil May Cry 3
Zero from Megaman X4

Vondan · « **Reply #15 on:** April 13, 2007, 02:14:11 am »

how come no one wants to cosplay chip and dale from Rescue rangers for the NES

Killer_Tofu · « **Reply #16 on:** April 13, 2007, 10:55:58 am »

I may Cos' as Jenova (FFVII) if I can generate enough interest

YariChuu · « **Reply #17 on:** April 17, 2007, 06:43:53 pm »

=)

Saria - Zelda (Most likely, but only if my friend chooses to be Malon with me)
My WoW NE priestess. Expect face melting, bitcheeeeez.

pinkrandomattack · « **Reply #18 on:** April 18, 2007, 12:24:18 am »

ummm....to date i have yet to actually cosplay anything from an actual anime. all the stuff ive made for myself has been from video games.

im doin a twilight princess group. and a harvest moon (<3) group. and have a partial ff12 sub character thing simmering on the back burner, thats like...the last thing im going to get to, if i even get to it since the other groups have 5+ people in them...plus commissions. im workin hard this year.

kekame · « **Reply #19 on:** April 22, 2007, 12:34:09 pm »

Totally going to be Sora, and maybe also borrow my friend's Roxas costume. We're doing a KH2 group.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #20 on:** April 22, 2007, 08:45:10 pm »

That sounds like a good idea, for those who cosplay video game characters.. I'd be up for it! Last year I cosplayed Vincent Valentine (FFVII) and this year I am attending as Barret Wallace (FFVII). I look forward to seeing other video game cosplayers, and other FF characters specifically.

kiraraplushie · « **Reply #21 on:** April 24, 2007, 04:23:21 pm »

I think I'm going to bring my Halloween Town Sora outfit from KH I & II and I might bring Reno again.. Depending.. The wig kind of died after Sakuracon. ^ ^;;

Soubi · « **Reply #22 on:** April 24, 2007, 05:54:55 pm »

I'm going to be going as Elena, from FFVII.
Easily identifiable by the ugly moogle hat that I've worn nearly everyday for a month now. xD

Izeekial · « **Reply #23 on:** April 26, 2007, 01:58:27 pm »

I will be going as 2 game characters. The first is Astaroth from SC 2...I wear it every year to Sakura Con since 2002 and the 2nd is Potemkin from GGXX. This will be my first Kumoricon XD!

SephiChan · « **Reply #24 on:** April 30, 2007, 07:15:55 pm »

-points to signature-

I'll definatly have my Tseng costume, as my cosplay group will be parading around as the Turks for at least one day. HOPING to have my Sephiroth costume finished in time, but we'll see how that goes. (Not that it isn't finished; it's a costume I've worn for several cons, I'm just tearing it to bits and aiming for perfection. ^^; )
