| Would be nice, but no game convention is ever within affordable distance to me. Do have fun though... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |

| Isn't that the truth? I wish they would rotate locations for each of these major game conventions. Just once I would like to see one come down into the Philadelphia/Washington D.C. area of the country. |

| Good luck scoring a Beta key. Always wanted to go to one of those but never had the resources. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "There are some things that can beat smartness and foresight? Awkwardness and stupidity can. The best swordsman in the world doesn't need to fear the second best swordsman in the world; no, the person for him to be afraid of is some ignorant antagonist who has never had a sword in his hand before; he doesn't do the thing he ought to do, and so the expert isn't prepared for him; he does the thing he ought not to do; and often it catches the expert out and ends him on the spot." -Mark Twain |

| Take pictures!
Really wish I could be there, but hitting the opposite coast isn't cheap. |

| I will be there on Saturday. Forget about getting a beta key because Square Enix is never at PAX. I will be checking out Tera since Bluehole is based in Seattle they have to be there if they want any public hype. |

| More interested in Rift and SWTOR than Tera, so check those out too if they are there. |

| SWTOR so far is not doing it for me. The last video I saw has a Sith Apprentice attacking and killing a Jedi Master. In my mind that should not happen so yeah that kinda ruins the game.
So far don't see anything unique about Rifts. Looks like just another point and click MMO. |

| What? Point and click? Not sure what that means.
Also, if you mean "non innovative", well, that's an argument I'm tired of hearing lately. There is only so much one can do in any given genre of video game. What I prefer is more of the same with a few different twists, better graphics and great stories. Hence my interest in STWOR and Rift. Even GW2 is slowly hopping onto my radar, although it will take a lot for that one to really blow me away, seeing as the first GW bored me. |

Ahh - I seen their name listed as one of the sponsers so I was hopeful. Saturday was already sold out by the time I got around to getting my badge. |
