Reveal your secret identity

10 May, 2006

Show the world the face behind your character’s mask with Alter Ego.

Robbie Cooper’s Alter Ego project has seen him travel from Europe to Australia and beyond, camera in hand, in hot pursuit of the world’s “most colourful, interesting, or significant gamers”. Working with writer Tracy Spaight, award winning photojournalist Cooper has been busy capturing the essence of gamer culture through interviews and pictures, the results of which will be published in a book this summer.

If you fancy taking part, all you need to do is send an email directly to Robbie, containing the following information:

  • A picture of yourself.
  • A picture of your favourite City of Heroes character.
  • A short description of who you are, what you do and what makes your character different or interesting from all others (think about back story, personality, similarities between you and your character etc).

Send your submission to Robbie Cooper direct at using “Alter Ego submission - NCsoft” as the subject line.

“the world’s “most colourful, interesting, or significant gamers”. “

Isn’t that a contradiction in terms?

Ah good old Robbie Cooper, I was unlucky enough to work with him last year as he touted his tired old concept around. Personally I wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole, he unserstands little or nothing about the gaming culture, and does nothing but create an atmosphere that portrays gamers as circus freaks, for an uneducated ‘arty’ elite. I think more importantly than that though, he just does not take very good photos.
