Super Tuesday? Feh. Primaries? Meh! We all know what democracy was really meant for: voting on zany alternate costumes for videogame characters.
As you may know, We Love Golf! features alternate Capcom costumes for each of its 10 characters. With the game coming to the US and Europe, the team is adding two new characters, and asking fans pick their alternate Capcom outfits.
You can vote for two alternate costumes–one for new the male character, and one for the female character. For the female character, the choices for alternate costumes are Cammy (Street Fighter), Morrigan (Darkstalkers), Rouge (Power Stone), Roll Caskett (Mega Man Legends), and Ashley Graham (Resident Evil). For the men, the costume options are Frank West (Dead Rising), Balrog (Street Fighter), Guy (Final Fight), Ken (Street Fighter), Dhalsim (Street Fighter), and Captain Commando (duh).
To vote, head over to the main page of the Capcom blog. You’ll find the two polls on the right side of the page. Make your voice heard and vote for your two favorites today.

So it’s come time to pick the winners for our Harvey Birdman preorder contest. We called in Capcom’s crack team of statistical scienticians to print out the list of the many entrants, laser-slice them into equally-sized slips, and dump them into the Capcom equivalent of a fishbowl.
After a thorough stirring, the terrifying Mega Man head (with the assistance of Chris’s hand) chose Grand Prize winner Michael Abbott, who will receive bountiful amounts of Harvey Birdman swag
The Grand Prize includes: Volumes 1 through 3 of the Adult Swim animated series, 4 Harvey Birdman character bobble heads and 4 qualities metal posters depicting popular episodes including The “Dabba Don” and “Shaggy Busted,” in addition to the fine game he has already preordered. Congratulations to all the winners.

Oh yes, my friends. It’s Milla. She is in definition. A *high* definition. You want her, we got her, here’s what you do to make it yours. Using any of the four provided Resident Evil: Extinction screenshots, modify the pictures and add text as you like to make us laugh. Our top scienticians will review the entries and choose the hilarious-est.
We’ll pick our five favorites, and in addition to the DVD, winners will also score Resident Evil: Extinction hats and shirts.

It took us awhile, because it was too hard to pick ourselves up off the floor after all of our ROFLing, but I can finally announce the winners to our Ace Attorney LOLCats Contest. I better do it quick though, before I regress back into fits of laughter again!
We’ll start off with our two runner ups, who will be receiving a Phoenix Wright plush toy along with an Ace Attorney poster signed by the producer of the series, Minae Matsukawa.

We all know Harvey Birdman was tragically hit by a bus. The question that remains is: What happened next? Is he dead? Is he back in court and trying to prove that he’s still alive? While that sounds like a case even Harvey could win… We think he could use your help. Subpeona the testimony of any of Harveys friends and enemies to tell us your version of the story. We’ll review the entries and choose our favorites, rating them in terms of creativity, humor, and any accompanying PayPal bribes.

Here at the vast and palatial Capcom estates, we spend most of our time looking at lolcats and giggling maniacally. The other part of our days are spent playing Ace Attorney and waiting around for Caturday.

In addition to the signature, the poster also includes a special note from Matsukawa-san. I’d tell you what it says, except 1) that would ruin the surprise 2) they appear to say different things 3) I can’t read Japanese. In addition to the above, the first-place winner will also receive a copy of the new Ace Attorney game.
