Well all good things come to an end and PAX was certainly one of them. We spent our last days trolling around and taking more pics with booth babes. Sunday is usually when they give out more swag so we tried our best to collect as much of it as we could. Oh and I also got to meet and greet Gabe and Tycho the creators of Penny Arcade! I got them to sign the book I purchased. Here are the last set of pics:
On Saturday, Andy, Trav and I were free to wander around aimlessly as we did not really no where to start because there were so many booths. I took this opportunity to take pictures with the booth babes. I have posted pics for your viewing pleasure.
In order to promote the new Dead Rising 2, Capcom rented out some building space and set up a fake hardware store called Green’s Hardware (they even has a snazzy fake flyer!) They put various fake weapons out on display pretending they were for sale. Pizza and pop was provided as well as a free Green’s Hardware t-shirt. They also had contests and set up stations where you could play the demo. A lot of the merchandise was fake weaponry and I have posted some pics for your viewing pleasure.

From September 3 to September 5 I had a total blast! I attended PAX 2010 in Seattle with my good friends Andy and Travis. 3 days of video games, computer gear, Magic cards, you name it! It was super fun. I saw some awesome demos for a ton of video games as well as played exclusive demos just for PAX. We played the Dead Rising 2 demo and got a free bobble head of the main character. We spent most of the day solving some crazy puzzles from Wizards of the Coast so that we could attend their exclusive event on Saturday night. I think I will definitely attend next year. I have posted some pics of the craziness from Friday. We managed to have time to catch a mariners game, which explains the images from Safeco field.

This is me:
I took my gf to Granville Island for an early birthday dinner since I’m leaving to go to Calgary for work on her actual bday. The last time I went here was back in 2006. I forgot how beautiful this place was. Took some photos. Enjoy!
In order to restore order to Middle Earth and remove the blindness spell among wizards, the heroic bus drivers had to use the coveted Tear Drops to activate the switch.
So LeBron James finally made his decision and has decided to join the D-Wade and CB4 in Miami. The Miami Heat are officially an all-star powerhouse team in the NBA. I wonder what next season will be like. Better yet, I wonder how the Lakers will fare against LeBron and crew. Only time will tell…

So E3 is well over and done however, some crazy products have been released, and the Kinect is one of them. It’s a camera controller in which you use your body to control the character in the game. One of the debut games is a game called Dance Central. Now, I thought it was pretty ridiculous until I saw the following video:
This would be so dope at parties! Amirite?!
