Gaming Competitions Coming!

Hey gamers, sorry to keep you waiting for so long on the gaming competition announcements, but we need your patience for just a few more days! We’re off at Anime North this weekend, pimping ConBravo! to the good folks up that way, so we haven’t quite finished the roster.

Expect, however, some big announcements next week! We’ll have prizes, freeplay setups, and some very special guests from the Toronto indie scene. See you then!

Guest Announcement: Robert Axelrod

Ladies and gentlemen, Power Rangers of all ages, ConBravo! is proud to present Robert Axelrod, who some of you may better know as Lord Zedd! That’s right, the voice of Lord Zedd from Power Rangers is coming to ConBravo! this July.

His roles include Finster, also from Power Rangers, Armadillamon and Wizardmon from Digimon, Rico on Robotech, and countless other anime roles. For a full who’s who on Robert, head over to our guest page and check him out!

Game Tournaments: Guilty Gear Poll

Hey ladies and gentlemen, gamers of all ages. ConBravo! wants to find out from you what version of Guilty Gear we should have up for competition come showtime!

The game of choice is Guilty Gear XX, but there are three versions of this venerable entry and we need you to tell us which one you prefer: Accent Core Plus, Accent Core, or #Reload? Heck, if you’d rather be playing BlazBlue, just leave us a comment as your vote!

Announcements for the gaming tournaments will be coming fast and furious in the next few weeks, so stay tuned.

What version of Guilty Gear would you play?

Guest Announcement: The Moonroses

We’re happy to announce that the Moonroses, an intrepid duo of cosplayers from Quebec, will be making a special appearance at ConBravo!. The Moonroses will be our special cosplay judges for the Masquerade, and also running several panels which deal with costuming, prop construction, and more. You can see some of their creations and get in contact with them through their website.

Cosplayers, come join the Masquerade and show them your stuff!

Guest Announcement: Svetlana Chmakova

We’re proud to announce that Svetlana Chmakova, artist and writer of the famous Canadian manga series Dramacon, is coming to ConBravo!

Svetlana has been a tireless presence in the Western comics scene over the last few years, as a contributor to Flight, creator of Dramacon, and now the authorial hand behind the acclaimed new series Night School.

Fans of hers can keep up with her activities via her website, Svetlania. ConBravo! is happy to welcome her onboard!

We Want You! (to tell us about games)

Hi there everyone, and hi there traditional gamers especially. We’re coming close to showtime and it’s dawned on us: We have no idea what you guys want to play.

Oh, well we know what videogames everyone wants, it’s what card games we should have. There’s a lot of them, and we’d like to handle what we can with some grace. We probably won’t, but at least let us pretend.

That said, here’s a poll. Please answer as truthfully and frequently as possible. Also, if you want another card game not herein listed, leave us a comment and we’ll see what we can do. Thanks!

What card games do you want to see?
