So I took a quick look inside the Hong Kong Ani-Com conference to see what was going down and it was pretty cool. It was mainly Anime oriented but there was a gaming area with nothing particularly exciting to speak of inside. I got to play Forza 3 and also Street Fighter 4 on a massive Flat screen with NVidia 3d technology running which was a bit of a trip. The gaming area was mostly populated by Chinese MMOs I don't understand but XBOX had a presence. No sign of Sony or Nintendo though which was odd. Mainly, my day was spent fighting my way through throngs of mental Cosplayers who made up more than 95% of the 100,000 strong population of this sweaty, stinking dork bowl.

Only funny if you are British and the word GASH amuses you.
Enjoy
Probably.
Is it wrong that I desperately want to own that red Super Dude costume and walk around in the city wearing it?
Absolutely not.
As for the suit, absolutely not. Not at all...
