Video Game Week: October 10th-16th

[Trobby]

Video Game Week! And not just the 8-bit kind, we take all forms of video game from the very most modern all the way back to SpaceWar!, and I bet you don't even know what that is!

So whether you're into rescuing princesses or blowing zombies into gibbs, this is the week for you.

So like the man says...



"Let's-a-go!

[Emperor Ing]

Umm...might wanna move it up a week because October 3-9 is really soon.

[Deth Muncher]

Sweet! I'm already prepared.

Hmm...well we still could.

What do you all say? Should we move it up a week?

[Lix Lorn]

I don't mind when it is.
Like I already said in the main avatar thread,

Hmm, I have lots of existing avatars on video game characters, which should I use...

Yes. Not so much for the soon-ness as because my production of Ruddigore is the 5^th to the 9^th of October, so I will have to use my Sir Roderic avatar for those days. But still.

[Trobby]

That's at least two votes for shifting the date forward.

Going to wait for a few more people to vote though. Just in case.

[Eadin]

Anyone willing to make me an avatar?

[Ignition]

I decided to be lazy and use an image from TF2 for my avatar.

But don't worry, I'll be right behind you!

I'm not sure. It is quite close,but if it becomes too late, we may not have enough time for Halloween.

[Emperor Ing]

Fortunately I still have this.



so i'm ready.

Ai. Keep it as set. Halloween will require more to coridnate (two people need to agree to partner and I doubt anyone will have an existing avatar).

Also, WIP



Works fairly well at 120^2 for such a cluttered outfit.

Cannot say I know who that is. Sorry. Original ref?

Play the demo, then buy the game. Easily the favorite game I bought this year.

[GrlumpTheElder]

I love the smell of being prepared in the morning playground:

[MoelVermillion]

Hey cool for once I'll be participating in a theme week !

[Mystic Muse]

some requests for avatars in order of which one I'd like most to the one I'd like least.

Nero from Devil may cry 4 with a visible devil bringer.
Zero/Black armor Zero with his energy sword out.
Megaman (Post getting the X3 capsules.)
Protoman
Megaman (Normal version)
Dante from devil may cry 3.

Make that three.
I'm on a business trip next week. No computer and no Inkscape make Strawberries sad. .

EDIT: but, if it interferes with Halloween, leave it as is. I'm just sorry I won't probably make any avatar.

[Mauve Shirt]

I just got me one.

[deuxhero]

Oh, if anyone wants too, check my Photobucket account

I got a lot of video game avatars you can have if you want them. Most are free (I think the Snorlax is the only one that isn't actually, I think Spike and Harry Dresden are in use by the requester still, though that doesn't matter).

Make one now and set it before you go.

Oh, I have one for me. I got Lara



I meant for other people. I'll see what I can do before I leave.

[Rae Artemi]

I can do Kirbytars for anyone without any better ideas or anyone who really wants them.

Come, make the adorable level in the Playground rise high and into the sky!

Not particularly.

You're in for a big surprise...

[deuxhero]

Isn't Halloween "Dress as another playgrounder" normally? Thought it was standard to ask permission.

[Dada]

Is anyone up for making me a companion cube avatar?

Edit: Corrections.

It is, though often there will be a list of people who give open permission for their avatar to be costume-ized.

Well, we could just do an awkward thing and have the Week start on Wednesday and end on Wednesday, or we could start it, and then keep going a little longer if people want to keep going with it.

In the meantime, let's go with it as if we're going to have it on that week.

[Bradakhan]

Okami was the only game I could think of where the character uses a paintbrush

[Herpestidae]

I'd like my guy dressed like this, please
