PAX 08: A Photo Diary

Bungie pictures can be found here, Red vs. Blue pictures can be found here, and Dead Space pictures can be found here. These are the scant remainders of my images, the majority of which were borrowed from other people’s albums. Until PAX 09, …

The scariest cosplayers of PAX 08. The expression on the guy’s face does not adequately depict just how creepy these girls were.

pax 08
With b.net moderator FoMan123 who discovered the quickest way to my heart was whispering sweet nothings about Halo 3 screenshots into my ear.

pax 08
Stalker paparazzi (aka Dominic) caught Louis Wu and I enjoying a quiet conversation. Louis thinks his leg looks bigger than my entire body. I tend to agree.

Need for Speed: Undercover, which looked pretty freakin’ sweet if you like pretending to race absolutely gorgeous cars at dangerously high speeds through city streets.

pax 08
Need for Speed: Undercover’s demo setup complete with 5.1 surround sound, a driving wheel with a custom shifter, and a super cushy racing seat.

pax 08
With b.net moderator Achilles1108 who fragged me repeatedly over the entirety of Friday evening. Yes, I enjoyed it.

With fellow Cavegirl Venus Envy. She’s a giant; me, not so much.

pax 08
These were cosplayers from that one game, ya know the one with those weird characters where they do all that stuff and you are trying to get those things, …
yeah, that one!

pax 08
Gamertag Radio caught me jamming to Guitar Hero World Tour with Sup4 Nov4,
TTL L askan and Cunbelin. We were kinda sorta rock stars.

pax 08
With b.net moderator Senor Leche who promised to sing me Italian love songs while riding in a dinghy. It will happen, soon enough.

A video of Laird (on bass), Digital Ph33r (on drums), and myself (on guitar) failing but still having fun playing Guitar Hero World Tour. You can’t see me that well but you can see my screen just fine (all the way on the left). Mad Guitar Hero skillz. I haz them.

    I speak the truth, although I did my fair share of fragging you as well if I am remembering correctly.

    That probably didn’t help your cause. Don’t give her a link. :)

  3. Holy crap! You’ve seen the newest Silent Hill in action!? I’m referring to the ’scary’ nurse cosplay.

    You know I knew that Mr. Wu was a tall man, but DAMN!

    Well that or you are just really short angel. :P ;)

  5. No. Claude is tall. All the pics I have seen of him were of him sitting down. When we came up to him I was shocked. Very nice guy though. He managed to have a few of the 7th Column buttons still left over and gave me one then he proceeded to just start giving away the buttons he had in a bag.

    Oh and angel you fragged the crap out of me quite a few times. Even when I had the drop on you I would still wind up dead and having to look at your screen and go “WTF? How did she pull that off?”

    It’s okay Hawty, I know how you feel. I’m probably shorter and more of a n00b than you. *sigh*

    You’re so sexy Hawty that I’m jealous of myself in that picture.

    All you need to do is smile and I would do the whole thing over again in a heartbeat. :D
