As usual I'm just going to write from the top of my head and try to recall stuff while I was drunk.
As soon as we got here I shattered the mirror hanging from the bathroom door. I hulked out, it was awesome.
After a $20 cab ride we finally arrived to the Actual San Diego Comic-con. It was very easy for us to get our passes, right in the line, the chick scanned printed confirmation and boom! Her printer spat out to badges for BatRastered and I. Now what about Jimmy? Some nuab from eBay has Jimmys, I gotta call him. After a short wait this random Jimmy comes out side and hands me a badge. $240 off eBay, Stolen! Jimmy is now Sean Harper - Professional.
We only had a few minutes to walk the floor that first day and it was a completely different from what I remember. Shell shocked. Of course it's like 10 times bigger too. We went up stairs to the panel rooms, Halo was starting at 6pm and I didn't want to be late for this one. But first we had to sit through two other panels. We came in at the end of the Star War The Force Unleashed II demo. The guy on stage was giving a complete breakdown of what was happening in the story at some point, I ignored him. I saw a little bit of new gameplay, but it doesn't matter. I'm going to get SWTFU2.
Then was the Capcom (non-fighting game) panel. Which I'm sure you can imagine was not that fun. MegaMan Universe you scream, the fanboy next to me pouring sweat with his Master Chief helmet in his lap was just screaming Ha Do Ken when mega man turned into Ryu. Jimmy! How is he going to act when the Halo Jimmys get on stage.
Ok finally the Halo Jimmys come out and show a 1v1 match of the Versus Firefight or something, ask the Jack. The mode also supports 2v2. More on all of this and my exclusive forge video when we return to the Gouki.com offices. Pre-order Halo Reach custom XBOX 360 limited edition while you wait.
That night we went to Jimmys Famous American Tavern and I got shitfaced. I don't remember paying the check. I came back to the hotel room and spent half the night in front of the toilet bowl awesome! San Diego Comic-con 2010 PWNFEST!!!
DAY 2
The next day I awoke some time around 4pm. lol. Fuck it! I hopped in a cab and rizolled over to the con just in time for the Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions panel with Stan Lee. Guess what Jimmy called and I don't think it's very creative at all ... more on that to come.
I was still pretty out of it at this point and I may not even remember exactly what happened in the correct sequence. We went to lunch at some point and I don't have to tell you that there are hot nerd girls all over the place dressed up like Wonder Woman, so yeah walking around aimlessly works out just fine in San Diego during Comic-con.
Walked past Flynn's arcade. We weren't cool enough to get in. Looked like nubfarm anyway.
Back at the Comic-con and we got in line to watch Iron Man anime. Yes anime, made by Mad House the same Jimmys that made Ninja Scroll. Check out what BatRastered wrote about it over at ShotgunComics.com.
It was a wonderful night of anime, after the Iron Man anime we went over to the massive hall 20 to watch Batman Under The Red Hood. Review coming soon.
Back to the hotel at like 2am.
DAY 3
Bizzle awake at 8am like a proper editor-in-chief, bought breakfast for the crew, Jimmy clogged the toilet with his rock turds. After all that was settled we were on our way to day 3 of the San Diego Comic-con. Today we were gonna try and make a little money. Thanks to our eye in the sky Choke we got a couple of pointers of what to buy. Picked up some Harry Potter gift bags, 2 for $160 ... yeah I'm serious about that. Got a Transformers Mighty Mugg for CoryO and then went over the Tron booth to get some Lightcycle diecast toy. Guess who we bumped into Chris Gore/Big ass Jimmy. He was amazed. The sign at the end of the line said "end of line." And he couldn't stop talking about and I didn't quite get what he was saying, but I understood. I got a picture.
After our toy run we headed up stairs to listen to that crazy Japanese guy Ono-chin the producer of Super Street Fighter IV. Guess what?! New costumes!!! Yeah well there is more, but you're gonna have to wait for my full report on the Super Street Fighter IV panel.
We then came back to the hotel, dropped off all our Harry Potter shit. Got some food and more booze. Got back on the bus and headed back to the SDCC for a second time today. I had no idea that Jimmys had been lining up for the Marvel Studios panel since frickin' 10am. It didn't start until 6pm, what was I thinking. It's only Captain America and Thor!! That's not the worst part, some Jimmy got stabbed in the eye with a pen during an earlier panel. Idiots. So everything was delayed.
We're back at the hotel now, I'm finishing this story and we're heading over to Jimmys Famous American Tavern, don't drink to much tonight Jimmy!
