Going to PAX & making videos - any requests?
(1/5) > >>
PDDestro:
Last year was the first year I had a camera with me @ PAX and I recorded some choice events that I uploaded to my youtube channel.

This year I'm again going to be bringing my 720p handy-cam with me to catch some choice footage of the exhibit show floor. It can record up to 8 hours, and I'll be there all day Friday, so I will try to hit up as many booths as possible. Unlike last year though I doubt I'll be going to any of the Q&A's as the lines/waits for those can get ridiculous.

I'm for sure hitting up these booths:
Bioware, Capcom, D3, EA, Mega64, Microsoft, Nintendo, Rooster Teeth, Sega, Sony, Square Enix, The Behemoth, Ubisoft, & Valve.

Here's a link to the show floor map so you guys and gals can see what companies will be there showing off upcoming games:

Nonetheless, If there are any requests for specific games/booth that you all would like footage of, let me know, and I'll do my best to record some of it.

BTW if you're unawares PAX aka"Penny Arcade Expo" is the biggest videogame convention that is open to regular fans, and not just media/distributors. Last year there was about 60,000 attendees and this year there's over 75,000 taking up the whole Washington State Convention Center in Downtown Seattle, WA. All the big names and game companies are there, and Warren Spector (Deus Ex fame) is doing this years keynote address succeeding Kevin Levin (Bioshock fame) as last year's keynote speaker. To say it's an awesome event is an understatement!  8)

Awesome to hear :P what exactly are you looking forward to playing the most? And are you going to any of the extracurricular activities? This is my 3rd year in a row now and I'm trying to focus my priorities on just the exhibit hall. There's so much else going on that you can miss a lot! And yeah the swag, we got so many tees, posters, and utter garbage dumped into our bags just for shits and giggles...

Since it's the whole convention hall being used up now here's hoping it won't be as crowded as '08!
Phantom5800:
Yeah, '08 was the only other time I went and it just overwhelmed me so much. I'm definitely gonna stop by the Sony booths and play some inFamous 2 first, but otherwise probably just gonna look around the exhibition hall a lot. Try Super Scribblenauts and some Nintendo games. I'm definitely going to the SEGA Party on Saturday night though, it sounds fun. Ugh, soo excited :D
PDDestro:
Is the Sega party gonna be at Gameworks again? I might wanna hit that up!

Oh snap! they are, and it's free!
