New York Comic-Con in Pictures

The New York Comic-Con is a sight to behold: comics, games, and all sorts of nerdy merchandise clobber the senses at every possible angle. It's a show that just can't be done justice in words (but by all means, please read our write-ups from the past couple days!). No, you need to see this thing to believe it. And so I give you... New York Comic-Con in pictures!

The outside view of the Jacob Javits Center in Manhattan's West Side, where the show was held. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- An ad for Prototype roughly the size of a Manhattan skyscraper.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Square brought plenty of merchandise to sell, but no games to see.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Codemasters booth. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bit Trip Beat at the Aksys booth. This was our unofficial game of the show. How much did video producer Tyler Winegarner love it?---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This much.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Champions Online may or may not feature miniature Princess Leias.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The South Peak booth.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The EA booth. We weren't allowed to take video or pictures of Battlefield, so pretend that's not there! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- People love Warhammer.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the absence of the new Turtles game, there was this relic from the past.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sega had a strong showing this year.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsurprisingly, the Comic-Con crowd ate up Ghostbusters.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Not sure what this chair was, but FEAR 2 looked awesome nonetheless.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Who watches the guy making chalk murals?---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- An entire army of Pac-Men!---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I imagine this is what Mario would look like if he was made of wax and left in the sun.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was excited to cover the Penny Arcade panel, but sadly I arrived late.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And finally, here's a picture of a Storm Trooper eating lunch. Just because.
