03.14.2007 SPANISH GOD OF WAR - NO SUBTITLES

This is the "Mexican God of War" video - I have no idea what he's saying, but I'm convinced the first half of the video frenzy is him trying to get water out of his ear, and the second half's havoc is either him celebrating the liquid's escape, or getting further frustrated. I know "Yo Soy Kratossssss!" means "I am a terrible cosplayer," but beyond that he could be declaring war on America for all I know. Any Spanish speakers reading? Please enlighten us on what this epic kitchen battle is all about.

02.26.2007 FFXII LONDON LAUNCH, MANDATORY COSPLAY

This isn't worth posting I told myself, I'll just look at one picture. And the bunny eared queer you see above is what I laid my eyes on. The trick to being able to reproduce like rabbits is actually getting laid, so I thankfully don't see her ever making it to step two. America has its fair share of cosplayers too, but I feel bad for Europe - look at the conditions they have to embarrass themselves in. It's as if you can hear the moo's in the photos as they march along talking about their best critical attacks and argue over what's the best mother's cooked meal to eat while playing FFX.

I'm not sure how the hierarchy of trumping each other works, but if I ever went to a Final Fantasy cosplay event I'd dress up my neighbor's dogs as moogles, hop into an Odin outfit, and then ride a horse through the event dragging bloody fuzzy corpses behind me. Of course this might actually be a bad idea, beacause there'd be 1000 losers thinking they can actually take me on using their manga as materia. But that's when I cast the Rain of Retards spell and trip the fire alarm sprinklers - everyone's costumes would be ruined and all you'd hear is "Somebody find a save point, hurry!" All it would take is one Wakka idiot dropping his dodgeball on the way to the exit, and everyone else would trip over each other in their escape attempts.

02.14.2007 STORMTROOPER LAN PARTY



You've got to have some pretty big Spaceballs to take a video like this and put it on the Internet. I can't imagine playing LAN games all night in these sweaty Stormtrooper suits, it looks like some of them can't even sit down. These guys are actually proud members of the 501st Legion Stormtrooper group online, and they're visiting the G4TV studios to show off their suits. I was hoping it was a trap, and that G4 would hire the Star Wars Kid to come in and fight them all off to establish dork dominance, but they just stand there and play games.

01.24.2007 SQUARE ENIX FFXII COSPLAY CONTEST, OH NO!

Final Fantasy XII still isn't out yet in Europe, and to celebrate its overseas launch, Square Enix is up to no good yet again. They'll be holding a cosplay contest that sends the top three FFXII cosplayers off to London for a two night trip to show off their costumes on the stage at the official launch event when the game releases on February 23rd. The competition ends at midnight on February 11th, so get your CosplayCraft skills on and try your hardest. I'm scared to ask, but do any readers actually partake in cosplay? The stigma is strong, I know, but I actually have a friend that does it without resorting to complete creepiness - if any readers send in their cosplay pictures I'll gladly post them on the site. But please don't kill anyone.

For official details on the cosplay contest, hit up Sqaure Enix's official announcement here (it's the PDF at the top of the list).

10.11.2006 Today is Final Fantasy XII Day in NYC

In honor of Final Fantasy XII that will be released in America (legally) on October 31st, today is FF12 Day in New York City. Today's real life RPG plans include a press conference and the announcement of cosplay contest winners. Square Enix president Daishiro Okada and executive producer Akitoshi Kawazu will both be in attendance. Check back later for some pics of FF12 cosplay if the internet is friendly enough to provide them. I still get why FFXII's honorary day wasn't October 12th, but then again, I can't read Kanji too well either.
