As I said on coscom. This is what digital happiness is looking like.

New Disturbed single/video. Makes a valid point, one I dont think any of us want to acknowledge. The truth is a bitch like that. I thing I'll recap E3 and lay out my aNEXT plans:
RE: E3 so far:
Microsoft- Gears of War 3 and Halo: Reach look tight, but let's be honest- Nothing new here (yet). The rest of the presentation was rather lackluster, and Natal/Kinect looks pretty god awful. FAIL
Sony-Underwhelming a bit, but not bad. Great 1st party titles, Move looked decent (still no interest), strong 3rd party support, and the return of Twister Metal and David Jaffe. PSN+ is neat, but nothing to write home about. I expect a better showing at TGS.
Nintendo- Nintendo to the industry:
Seriously. AMAZING 1st party line. 3DS looks neat, and what they're showing so far is rad, although I'm wondering exactly how many NEW titles (IE not ports) we're getting. But still, amazing line up that will print money for the Big N.
AnimeNEXT is this weekend as you know. I'm in Dani and Dar's room, so what they says goes. Riding down to NJ with Ray and Flippy on Friday morning, and my friend Alexis wants to know who's taking PT into the con so she has travel mates. Here's the Breakdown on what's going on with me when:
Friday:
11/12ish: Arrive at con, get into room, hit up dealer's room for toys,toys,toys and possibly porn
4pm-5pm: Baron Munchausen Charity Event.
Karl (aka Uncle Yo) got myself, Mario, Kyle Herbert, Bill Rogers and Little Kuriboh into a chairty event, where we play said game. Should be interesting, and hey, Charity!
5pm: Fate/Stay Night photoshoot: Found a F/S group on coscom. Seem like decent folk. Bringing Shiro out for this.
8/9pm: Hoping to get a Soul Eater shoot with Lauren, Carrie, Brian, Greg and myself. Carrie's working on Blaire as we speak.
11:30pm-1:00am 18+ Dating Game : Mario and I are co-hosting again. That is all I'm telling you.
Also some point during the day or even Saturday, I need to get photos with Laura and Jeresy Lisa in their Dissidia costumes. They're doing Zidane and Terra respectively. Myself?
A fucking shocker, I know. Also Serena wants pics at some point.
Saturday:
I'm actually free for like 3/4th of the day. Costumes to be worn you ask?
Doing a Shonen Jump Trinity shoot with Brian (Naruto) and Mario (Goku). Strictly to look awesome/lolzy.
In addition:
Should have small Blazblue group, with Ray as Jin and Dar at Taokaka at the very least.
If I'm not mistaken, there's a Ruby Tuesdays in the area. I think I'm going with Morgan, Joe, Sean Ewing, AP at the very least. Let me know by Thursday if anyone else is interested, I'm making reservations on Friday.
In addition, Matt and I are SUPPOSEDLY doing secret cosplay, but that depends entirely on if he shows up and with what. Hoping for it though.
12:00am-1:30am Shame of the Otaku
A pseudo sequel to the 21+ Cosplay/RAGE! panels I've been running since Otakon 2008, SoTO is going to be a half confessional/performance piece featuring myself, Carrie, Mario and Uncle Yo. We'll tell some lolzy stories, do a few "Skits" and do a general Q & A. And I mean general. Like if you want to know why there's more Hot Dogs in a standard package than rolls. You'll get answers, not necessarily the correct ones. Or who would win in a fight: Batman pilotting the Big O, or Kyle Rayner and Gurren Laggan. The answer is clearly TTGL/GL, despite what Grant Morrison says.
Sunday
1:00pm-2:30pm Ye old Final Fantasy/Square Enix Fan panel VII
YES, it's actual starts off with Ye Old. I am excite. We'll be talking FF13, Dissida, and god knows what else for 90 minutes, hopefully not spending 70 minutes talking KH2/FFVII. I would like to avoid that this year.
Random facts:
Light drinking at best.
Probably swing by the game room to play videya.
I have a vuvuzela horn app, and will troll when needed.
Always down for hanging out. Will supply phone # upon request.
