    I'm proud of you guys for voting the way you did there (Cid and The Captain). Brofist, forum.

    Cid should have won (hell, this message board used to be called The Highwind!), but The Captain was the only other logical choice. I have no idea wtf all the other voters were thinking.

Between like, 9pm and midnight, everyone who preordered was invited to come along and enjoy some multiplayer action in a tournament, with the winner being given their preorder free. Sweet deal, right? Now you’re all foreigners, so let me explain something. Morayfield is not a nice place to be at the best of times. It has a high crime rate, a lot of drugs and knifings and shootings. Okay, perhaps not a lot, but it’s still enough to make a guy worry a bit. Now I was rolling down here late at night and what do I see but some seven foot tall guy in a long dark trench coat with piercings everywhere, a manic look on his face and a silver briefcase. Turns out the briefcase just held his snacks. Anyway, the moral of the story is that midnight releases are generally not something you would want to do. You could die. RPG fans are even more fanatical and I have no doubt our nominees will find themselves faced with a few hundred cosplayers with all sorts of replica weapons. No doubt our nominees will be counted among their number. That, of course, will be seen as a challenge and/or threat and so I can imagine the midnight release of Final Fantasy XIII-2 being filled with a battle royale between all the nerdy, weird fanatics. I’ll take my trenchcoated goth guy any day. I don’t think we need to present this award. I think they’re all hyper obsessive weirdos. But Award Qu says the show must go on, so let’s see some results!

    Jessweee's insane enough to like FFXIII, so she's insane enough to do anything.

    If you posted in the FFXIII section you would understand. If instead of a disc the FFXIII box had a steaming pile of crap in it BoB would still defend it.

    We here at Eyes on Final Fantasy will be the first to admit that the series has not been hitting perfection with each instalment. Vivi22 and Wolf Kanno would be the first, but they are busy fighting each other for the honour of trash talking FFXIII-2. This town ain’t big enough for the both of ‘em. (PS Kanno you’re fired.)
    (Just kidding, scared ya, didn’t I?)


    Anyway. The Biggest Final Fantasy Fangirl Ciddie will be awarded shortly to the man, woman, boy, girl or quina that we, the normal people, deem to be the most grotesquely obsessive lunatic to walk the site.

    Now that sounds harsh, and I will apologise for that, because our fanatical little friends are still beloved members of our community, as much as we like to label them weird and wrong. Despite not realising that it’s not cool to love Final Fantasy these days, they still buy every game, every little collectible and perhaps even dress up.

    Oh yeah. They dress up.

    DMKA


    A long-time fan of the moody, dark characters in video games, DMKA’s favourite cosplay is, of course, none other than Vincent Valentine. He went for an artsy shot here, black and white with just a touch of colour.

    Jessweeee♪


    Jessweeee♪’s happy go lucky personality is just perfect for cosplaying as Selphie Tilmitt. Yes, that is Loony BoB behind her. No, he is not wearing a costume.

    Renmiri


    Renmiri is a very mysterious character to me, and it is quite fitting to see Vivi Orunitia as the costume of choice! What lies under that floppy wizard’s hat? Who knows!

    ShlupQuack


    ShlupQuack loves kids. A lot. Not in the creepy pervert way though. One day, ShlupQuack hopes to have little ButtTheQuacklings running around causing mayhem. That’s why ShlupQuack loves to dress up as Final Fantasy’s PowerMom, Lulu.

    Wolf Kanno


    Wolf Kanno is a strange man. On the outside, he openly bashes Final Fantasy XIII. Do you know why he does this? It’s because his love for the game is so deep that, were he to share his true feelings, it would bear his very soul to the world. In his spare time he likes to dress up as his Final Fantasy mancrush, Snow Villiers.

    These are you fangirls, EoFF. Mock them. Love them. Celebrate their obsession. Hide your own.

    He's that bad? I used to post in the FFXIII forum, and don't remember him liking it that much. And here I thought his creationism was his most absurd belief. It looks like now there's a tie.

    Still not sure how Jesswe lost this one, but WK did once wear a Hello Kitty costume as his job.

    I think everyone just wanted to see WK win a "fangirl" award.
