PAX 2010

Post by Dakinggamer87 »

PAX is coming up very soon in September. I can't wait to go for my 2nd year I had a blast last year playing games, various panels, meeting gamers, and concerts such as Metroid Metal. I'm gonna visit some of the other attractions in Seattle such as the Needle before the convention. Any other racketboy members attending? I hope we can do a meetup this year!! :D

I'll be going again, and this time I have a friend coming from out of town to see the show, which is going to be fun. I'm really excited that MM is coming back; they were awesome last year and they're going to be awesome this year.

As for the Needle, it takes about 30 mins out of your day (you go up, look around real fast, come back down) so make sure you have more stuff planned to do.

I hope this turns out to be as awesome for you as PAX East was for me. Make sure you give us a full report when you return!

I'm already looking forward to the next PAX East in April :D

Pike's Place Market is always on the "to see" list for tourists, but you have to like that sort of thing. There's also the Experience Music Project near the Needle, which is a rock & roll museum (focusing on the Seattle scene).

I'll have to go next year. I should have went this year since it is not like I would even need a hotel or anything.
