RPG, definitely (although, I've been making a costume since probably february of Black Mage from 8-bit theater. I just need gloves [found 'em, no money], hat [sister had one, somewhere, I may have to wait and buy a new one this october], and a shadowmask hood [have one, can't find it]).

Anime(or manga) or game character costume?

Oh that's a really tough one because I like both. But I'll go for game character just because of all the great FF and KH costumes I've seen Very Happy

Websites that make cosplay costumes or self-made ones like yours? (which sounds awesome btw)

Self-made ones. It costs more, but it's more personalised. Even if it's lower quality, it (usually) costs less, and with practice in designing and making the costumes, one can eventually rival anything found on a website, and it'll look better because it's custom-fit.

AnimeCon or E3-clone (now that E3 is press-only)?

E3 Clone, since the games interest me just slightly more than the anime conventions (though I would love to go to either)

White bread or wholemeal?

Wholemeal. White bread has an awful taste/texture combination, and I like the sunflower and poppy seeds in 12-grain wholemeal bread (my mom got it from the discount store, which never checked for mold, instead of from the Wal-Mart, so we never eat it anymore).

Discount store for money saved, or a proper supermarket or superstore for guarantee of quality? (I say proper store)

Yeah proper store. Discount stores are ok if you're in a bind, but if you can you should spend the money on good quality stuff.

CDs or Flashdrives?

Flash drives. You can play MP3CDs on a PS2, and prerecorded music CDs on any cecent computer or CD player, but you can rewrite flash drives more easily than CD-RWs, and can't rewrite CD-Roms or CD-Rs at all.

card (CF/SD) or USB drive?

USB drive, I find cards really fussy and I do like a good flashstick. Although of course you need a card for your PSP or camera

Blu-ray or normal DVD?

DVD. From what I've seen, Blu-ray discs take a while to load, and you have to pay a lot of money for a blu-ray machine or PS2 (unless of course you mean HDDVD, in which case I have no opinion on which should prevail)

The original Sony Minidisc or the UMD format?

UMD, although the minidisc was a good idea, I didn't like the compression method it used to allow more storage, it made the music quality suffer. UMDs seem to allow a lot of storage without "lossy" compression. How? I'd love to know ^^

Hmmmm I haven't seen a HDDVD for a while, I guess they kinda failed Razz

Easy to achieve "lossy" compression, or hard to achieve "loss-less" compression?

Hard to achieve "loss-less" compression. Once you figure out how to both read and write the information in a way that doesn't lose any information, all that's left is making it cheaper to produce.

8-tracks or audiocassetes (I prefer 8-tracks myself, but mostly because I've had problems with audiocasettes that disintegrated in the player. 8-tracks are lower quality, but still working fine.)

I would choose 8 tracks. I haven't heard one myself but I've heard they are much better quality, and audio cassettes always sucked (I would re-record on them so much that the music would sound like satanic mumbling >.<)

HDDVD or laser-disc? (looking back at formats that phail)

HDDVD. Laserdisc was cool, but HDDVD was still better by both relative price and quality, even though DVD was more successful than either.

LP or audiocassete?

LP. I love the vintage vinyl sound, it blew the pant off of audiocassetes which always just sounded muddy to me.

Disney Pixar or Dreamworks?

I don't really- Dreamworks. Definitely Dreamworks. I had to look up in Wikipedia to know who did what aside from Shrek and Toy Story, but Disney/Pixar are just ticking me off. And Dreamworks apparently has free daily breakfast and lunch for all employees, so the upper executives don;t seem as self-centered as the average.

Wallace and Gromet short cartoons (claymation) or Shaun the Sheep short cartoon (claymation, by the same team as W&G, but more recent)?

Wallace and Gromit. Shaun the Sheep is good but it seems to be more geared at a younger audience, which kinda sucks. Plus I adore Gromit Very Happy

A Close Shave or The Wrong Trousers?

A Close Shave (assuming that's the one with the sheep-rustlers and the twist ending). The Wrong Trousers has the not-a-penguin, but it's not quite as funny, in my opinion, aside from the inherent humor in anything that involves use of the word trousers.

Shaun of the Dead or Sam Raimi's Evil Dead sequels?

Evil Dead stuff, even though I do love Shaun Of The Dead, those sequels were still awesome because of how blatantly bad they were Razz

Shaun Of The Dead or Spaced series 1?

Shaun if the dead. I have no idea what Spaced series 1 is (a parody sci-fi show?)

Star Wars (original trilogy) or Star Trek (original series)?

Star Wars, definitely, never thought much to the original Star Trek stuff, just liked a bit of Voyager.

Oh and Spaced is a comedy with Simon Pegg, but it's actually about life living in diggs in Britain, and the toils of such a life. Really funny.

Voyager or Deep Space Nine?

Probably DS9. I've heard it recommended more often by non-obsessive fans, which implies it was more interesting for the casual viewer. Unless I'm mixing them up.

Parody of console RPGs, or parody of tabletop RPGs?

Parody of tabletops only just have the edge in this one. I love any kind of mickey take of Heroquest or such since I could never play those games seriously (having brothers who like to do impressions gives you that sense of humour ;P)

Yu-Gi-Oh! cards or Pokemon cards?

Yu-gi-oh cards, if and only if you count just the original Duel Monsters cards. The GX and Duel Riders and Magic Robot and everything has just been getting ridiculous since the post-God Card sets came out (oh, no, 4000 attack! Nothing can beat that... Except this semi-rare 6000 attack card I just got in the new booster pack!)

Duel Masters TCG or DBZ TCG? (I play neither, but own a small collection of DBZ cards, and 3 DM cards that came with a video game)

I would probably pick Duel Masters since I really can't imagine DBZ cards, whoa where did you get those? My brother and sister have a lot of Yu-Gi-Oh! assorted cards and a stupid amount of Pokemon cards.

On the subject of Yu-Gi-Oh! (which I'm now getting used to, well the original TV show anyway), Yugi or the Pharoah? I kinda like the Pharoah for some reason.
