This past weekend, legion of sweaty nerds – 60,000 strong – invaded the Washington State Convention Center in Seattle to celebrate video games, table top gaming, and nerdcore at the fifth annual Penny-Arcade Expo. Maximum PC was on site for all three days of the event to witness (and take part in) the spectacle and immerse ourselves in unabashed mass geek-out. And just as we did with Comic-Con, we’ve brought back a massive photo gallery of the 128 standout cosplayers from the convention, comprised mostly of video game and anime characters. And if you were that dude adorned in armor made entirely of Magic: The Gathering cards, you’re our hero.

I can't believe the guy with the Magic the Gathering armor went with new cards. Classics would have been much better. A polar kraken and a few elder dragons would have been nice.

 ...people would have shown up as Will and Gordon...

But then Norman would have probably licked them..

The dude with the companion cube backpack was at the last show, I think.

There are a lot of hot geek chicks at these conventions. Maybe I should give one a try
