More of Jo Garcia, my sweet angel!

Next time if people claim that girls are casual gamers, think again. I have no qualm defying it after looking at how serious and hardcore of Jo Garcia when it comes to coming to her(even more hardcore than me to be honest).

Usually for me, I will just complete a game without giving a second go unless the game is attractive enough for me to come back. But for every single Final Fantasy game, Jo Garcia will just rush for the first time to go through and understand the storyline. And during the second play, she will get a walkthrough or guide just to get every nook and cranny in the game. And not to mention she always jots down interesting info(like to get espers in Final Fantasy or side quest that she already compeleted) and some tips of the games she has either completed or yet to finish(like Metal Gear Solid 4)in a a note book.

I am really amazed at the way she plays games and it reminds me of another friend(male, sorry to let you guys down) who is similar to her where he will always compare the stats of characters in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance just to get the best and suitable characters for specific jobs.

Now, who dare says females cant be hardcore gamers? I guess Jo Garcia will always have a special spot at our hearts and I guess every gamer will be clamouring someone like her to be their special mates. I admit I am.

Jo again!

In the previous post, I have posted an interview with the not-so-average gamer, who is Jo Garcia. If the interview itself still cant convince you that she is a true gamer(yeah, hard to believe by looking at mere words without any substantial proofs), G4 had a gameplay session with her for several games including Mario Kart Wii and XBLA's Street Fight II:Hyper Fighting. And yeah, she did kick ass in the gamers.

Huhu, I will definitely keep an eye on what this girl will be doing for the next few years. Her name is going to be etched in my brain for some time not because she is related to playboy, but simply because she is a gamer and the fact that she is hot does help a lot.

When gaming is not kiddy anymore

Well, well. Guess who the pretty bombshell is? She is the Playboy.com’s 2008 ‘Cyber Girl of the Year’, Jo Garcia and most importantly, she is a self proclaimed gamer. She is quite hardcore when it comes to gaming, and she is definitely not the typical female gamers(no pun intended) you would bump into. Interestingly, she is never shy to admit that she is a gamer, which is quite rare considering the fact that some of the gamers(males included) nowadays are too afraid to admit their allegiance towards gaming fearing that such statement will be detrimental to their images(too kiddy some of they say).

Let's see what she has to say for those who claim gaming is only for nerds and geeks.
"I have nothing to say to people that claim that gaming is just for guys/nerds, because they are not true gamers and don’t know any better! A real gamer knows that the hunger can strike at any time. It’s like a calling from the guy upstairs; it knows no gender, it must be answered, and Wii must play!"

I am really jeaolous that RMC from gonintendo managed to hold an interview with her. Hopefully, I can have interview with someone like her too one day if my blog manages to gain the popularity like gonintendo did. For the rest of the interview, feel free to read it here.

Huhu, now when can I manage to find someone like Jo as my girlfriend? Hopefully my future soul mate can share the same passion as me..

Oh my god!

Recognize the image above? For those hardcore Final Fantasy VII fans, you will have no problem identifying her. She was the one was back stabbed by Sephiroth(well, almost every player was trying hard to prevent this from happening back in 1997 but you know, that was practically futile).

The only difference is the image above is not actually a CGI image and it is actually a cosplayer. It looks so surreal that I was deceived when I first looked at it.

Cosplay first started in Japan and it has gained its popularity around the globe as more manga and anime fans flock to become the characters they like.

Even similar events are available in Malaysia, and I was fortunate that I could attend the biggest Malaysia cosplay event in Malacca, which was the GACC 2008.

However, as there are more cosplayers(persons who cosplay) around, you might be interested to find out who are really the best of the best. Well, look no more. There is a list compiled to show the top 11 scorching hot female cosplayers(10 if you exclude the cosplayer above). Most of them are simply as fantastic as their digital counterparts, which look very identical.

Well, now do we need a list of the most handsome male cosplayers? Can someone really manage to capture the magic of Cloud or Squall? I am looking forward to it.
