that was a good day.....
First off met Nolan North, top bloke

was very impressed by his willingness to talk to fans a good example was the lad just in front off me who had brought a copy of Resonance of Fate for him to sign (didn't even know North was in it).
North was happy to sign both his and his character's name and then launched into an anecdote about his work on the game that the lad loved and commiserating with him about the lack of a sequel...Top Bloke.
He was also happy to sign exactly what I wanted on my Uncharted game cover, he also said I was the first to ask for the line (probably a lie, but i'll take it)....
Next up I hit the merchandise stands, glad I only took £100 with me as my self control would have failed me miserably...

bit disappointed about this one as I thought from the box it would have a mask on.
I also picked up a rather nice Alien figure (

There was also a large section given over comic book artists, mostly amateurs with the odd pro. and I picked this up

...
Unlike the Tokyo Game Show the cos-play here was less organized with no real area for pics. you basically just stopped them in the crowd and asked for a pic. (didn't like that)

and I'm absolutely gutted that I missed my shot of one lad in an electric wheel chair who had done himself up as Davros complete with a Dalek bottom half, star of the show that lad.
Anyway here's a few of the one I did get...
As I said great day just wish I could have come yesterday and seen the Cos-play show.
The goal of our culture now is not the emancipation of the individual from the group, but the permanent definition of the individual by the group.
We used to call this bigotry.
Now we call this being woke.
