PAX 07! Now with 100% more 08

[ertyu]

Looked around for a thread and couldn't find it so I'm making one! This Friday :D anyone from BG going? A friend and I will be there. Can't wait to try out some demo's like for Assassin's Creed and (lol) Age of Conan. Big three have a booth this year and the size is supposed to be more than double last year which means it's going to kick complete ass. Post here if you're going and if you want, which hotel you're staying at. Maybe we can get some late night DS tourneys 8)

[Correction]

Flying up tomorrow morning. Should be a good year with all the extra space and new acts at concerts.

[Foof]

Goin with a friend. Never been to one nor have I researched it any, but he says it'll be fun. What kind of things should I expect to be there?

Bring your DS/PSP.

Pissed, cause I was going and my friends bailed at the last minute.

so yeah it kicked total ass. There was a bunch of demos and a TON of free stuff. The last round of the omegathon was fucking Halo 3. It was pretty amazing and they had a ton of new weapons, incindiary grenades, flamethrowers and a few new pistols. All in all it was awesome, if you have the extra money I definitly reccomend everyone to go :D just buy your plane tickets and crap early and the trip won't run you that much. Next year it's gonna be during the last weekend of august so I wanna see more BGers there next year! 8)

Fuck E3.

Might want to start a new topic, the "07" in the title's a bit misleading.

But yeah, fuck E3, PAX has basically taken over as the space for developers to display to consumers and industry types.

But yeah, fuck E3, PAX has basically taken over as the space for developers to display to consumers and industry types.

That's because the people actually using the products will be able to see them first hand, instead of news people/special invites.

Hoping to be there if I am not too broke.

I pre-registered. I work one block away from the Expo center so I have no excuse to not attend. ^^

Paying for the wife to go while I stay home and work....
