Every year, gaming publisher Level-Up! Philippines --that brought you Ragnarok, RF online, and Rohan online here in the Philippines-- held their convention at the World Trade Center, from November 3-4 of 2012 (last year).
Even though the event is a online gamers centric, cosplayers are present showcasing their appreciation at the character from different gaming franchise which Level-Up Philippines released.
Here are some images of cosplayers at the 2012 Level-Up! Live; Enjoy!!

Its been a while since I haven't attended this one big event by Level Up Philippines.
After being stuck for two hours in the rain. I managed to escaped the place on a waiting shed somewhere in Manila just to reach the event.
Level-Up Live/Level Up Con or is a gathering of gamers (casual or hardcore) that plays games publisher by Level-Up games, Philippines biggest game publisher. The said event is similar to Quakecon or Blizzardcon in the US.
One of the most awaited segment on the event is the cosplay competition, where cosplayer will cosplay their favorite characters on any Level-Up games; I have high expectation that someone will cosplay a Cora, a race from the game RF-Online and grabbed the winning position at the cosplay competition. On the said event, there are also cosplayers did not participate on the competition, they are just for the costrip, having a good time on the event, and bonding with their friend who are hooked up with Level-Up games.
Unfortunately, no one among the contestant cosplayed a cora, sad for me because from prevous Level-Up Convention, the usual winner at the competition is someone who cosplay a Cora race, I mean a daring Cora race; but, all of them especially girls are darling of the crowd; you will hear audience screaming for appreciation of their costumes taken from Level-Up Games.
I hope next year more cosplayers will participate on the said event.
