Alright. So I woke up, got in the shower, and my parents drove me to my cousins apartment.
I waited for her to get ready and went down the L Line to Mckormic Place in downtown Chicago, walking inside. We basically entered heaven.
We walked inside the convention center. Busy groups to people, busy booths, everything.
There was a giant Battlefield 3 booth (more on that later) A Marvel, DC and Artist alley booths. We easily got something to eat first and ran out, starting to buy things to our hearts content.
I brought my sketchbook to get that signed and the picture will be up later in this blog so you all can see it's awesomeness.
I got to try out the brand new Thor gamr by Southpeak for the Wii and was pretty impressed by it. A very fun game and very addicting. I got to pick up some comics and shirts and the swag, and finally met my idols.
I met Claudio Sanchez, lead singer of Coheed and Cambria and creator of Kill-Audio and the Amory Wars. I swear I died a little inside.
My cousin met Tony Moore, Artist of the Walking Dead, and I also met Tyler Kirkman, Artist of The Darkness which is my favorite comic book ever created. I will also post what he did in my sketchbook later this blog as well.
We didn't make it to any panels, which is ok, but we did see some pretty awesome stuff as well. We met alot of real populer comic book artist and the such, and getting alot of artigraphs as well. I gotta few commishions of my own characters, and they turned out pretty cool.
Near the end we went and decided to wait in line to see what we thought was the first ever never before scene new Trailer for Battlefield 3. We got in the large, soundproof booth and the guy started talking about how they made a true sequel to Battlefield 2, and then he said 'Here, for the first time before any gaming press, we would like to show C2E2 today the first ever live gameplay demo of Battlefield 3' And oh my god.
The game was beautiful. The graphics made me think I wasn't watching a game I was watching a movie, and the whole thing about it got my hyped. I've never played a Battlefield game so I am now offically stoked.
Picture time!!!
