Already pre-registered. I'm stoooked.

[Cronson]

Omg. I'm so pumped. I missed it last year. I won't miss it again. Does anyone have any advice on going?

[KholdStare]

Sorry, I dont. This will be my first year going as well lol.

[Cronson]

I noticed 4 day passes are $40. Does anyone know if there are cheaper tickets, like a 1 day pass?

[KholdStare]

For being so late Cronson, but I found out that there ARE one day passes. $25 for one day...

I just got back from it. It was my first convention and sooooooo much fun. I only went up for the day but had a blast. Its definitely not a huge gathering of people but everyone is so nice and there's lots to do (I got to play a neo geo, saturn and jaguar today!). Oh and I got to hear Sid Meier talk. I'm on a video game high right now.

Dude, I just got back myself, I stayed from friday to today. It was fucking amazing. They also had some good ass bands like Rare Candy and Metroid Metal. And yeah Majors sucks at Punch-Out. He had the best cabs though, the ones by the bathroom smelled like rotting shit.

Hey-hey, now! That stick on the PC10 bartop was ass-tastic, could not dodge for the life of me.

Aahaha "ass-tastic" I do agree that the stick on the PlayChoice sucked major shit. You had to hold it at a weird angle just to move.
