The Official Convention Thread

OH MY GOD!
I thought “hmm,Ill check and see if there is any info on WW:Chicago. Ive got plenty of time until August to save up some money”, I check…its in 10 days.

WTF!?

shit, well, thats the second year I wont be attending.
Im so mad right now, it always used to be in August!
fuckers, I want new comics NOW!

They changed the date because it can’t compete with San Diego anymore.
It used to follow barely 2 weeks after.

I need at least 2, but could use 3, of those VIP Passes to unlock the in game item, I know its not going to be anything major, but I’ve been playing City of Heroes since 2004 and would like to have it, I can paypal $5.00 per unused code to whomever gets it as long as the code(s) are unused. Feel free to PM me to discuss more.

THanks :cool:

You should ask in this thread too -

I’ll be there for sure.

I’ll be doing free sketches at the NCSoft/City of Heroes booth all weekend long so whoever has a screen shot of your character, feel free to bring it for reference. It would be greatly appreciated.

Times will be finalized real soon so I’ll post those up when I get the official word.

:cool: snag me some of those VIP passes :wink:

They’re limited to a certain number and they’re only giving out X number a day but I’ll try.

need at least 2, 3 max, thanks man :pray:

Rie Tanaka will be at the NY Anime Festival this year! She’s the voice of Ciel in the Mega Man Zero games and she did Sylphie’s (Forgotten Worlds) voice for Namco x Capcom. And yeah, other non Capcom related stuff too. :smile:

muslim is a race?

My bad lol Sano from 3 months ago when I posted that apologizes. I have been asked if I was Muslim before though, quite a few times. Around here some people ask the religion first and then the race, don’t ask me why.

Sano are you gonna be heading out to the NY Anime Festival?

Yeah man if you want something from there just let me know. :tup:

So yeah the NY Digital Life show, out own very small gaming and technology show is going on at the same time as the NY Anime Festival and in the same building but Digital Life kicks off one day earlier. I will probably just go to Digital Life just one day, the Thursday before the NY Anime Festival starts. Last year it was hella wack because of E3 shrinking, forcing game companies to hold their own seperate events and not giving NYC a lot of love… This year it will probably suck too. Well, here’s the info on that event anyway -
