That is a frightening picture.

I'm so jealous! I wish they'd have an event like this in the Boston area.

Ok ... they are scary :P The party will probably be great though ...

nobody cosplays in my area, not the i no of anyway. I hope the game is good, iv played the jap version, with my cousin, it was fun, but we had no idea how to work the slots, although we got a few specials in.

Are those men or women in that picture?

looks like all women to me

Well I'll be attending this event, should be fun, and I need to buy my copy of Crisis Core, might as well do it there.

Ill probably take some pictures too, so look forward to them if I do get a chance to.

I'm really tempted to go .... but I have other things I need to be doing. I went to the Final Fantasy: Dear Friends concert in SF a few years back. *That* was awesome.

Worst experience of my life.... never going to one of these again wasn't even worth my time. Long line nothing fun about it square and sony really dissappointed me and my consumer experience.

I went, waited for 4 hours to get in. They only allowed 200 people in. If you were 201 and later, they kick you out of the line! Lucky for me I was 175. Only thing that made it worth the wait was winning one of the Lithographs. The Shin-Ra employee ID card is kinda cool too. They should of at least gave everybody a UMD case. That line was brutal!
