NCsoft Announces City of Villains Costume Contest
NCsoft
has announced the City of (Arch)Villains Halloween Costume Contests where fans
of the PC game City of Heroes and the upcoming City of Villains can
invent a villainous costume and show it off to the rest of the world.
Last year
the City of Heroes costume contest brought out an impressive array of costumes
and contestants (Go here to view last year’s winners and contestants: http://www.cityofheroes.com/community/costume_contest_winners.html)
who created hero uniforms and displayed them to the public on Halloween. For
this contest, fans need to send to NCsoft an in-game screenshot of the player’s
hero from City of Heroes, and a 250 word description
of the
hero’s Archvillain (who they are and why they’re the Archvillain,
plus any other info you want to provide) before Nov. 7, 2005. Along
with the screenshot and description, contestants are required to send
in digital pictures
of the unique Archvillain costume created for this contest and actually
worn
out on Halloween. Those that submit the best descriptions and
Archvillain
costumes will be handsomely rewarded.
Here are
the contest categories:
- Best Overall (Grand
Prize Winner – this will not be a winner from any of the other
categories).
- Best Male (Winner and
Runner-Up)
- Best Female (Winner
and Runner-Up)
- Scariest (Winner and
Runner-Up)
- Best Costume/Public Location Combo
(Winner and Runner-Up)
All
contestants will be judged on costume impact, creativity, originality, detail
and quality of the required Archvillain description (so make sure you read it
over and spell-check!).
All costumes must be original and unique,
and any copyrighted villain characters and/or trademarked names will be
automatically disqualified. Among the items winners will receive include a Sony
32-inch CRT HD TV, Apple iPods, City of Villains Collector’s Editions and TiVo DVRs.
