Gaming Conventions in or near Virginia

[ReddMcKnight]

Hi all. You may remember me posting a thread not unlike this one last year, asking if there are any Gaming Conventions coming up in or near Virginia. So here I am again, asking that same question. I know TooManyGames is coming up in Philly, but I can't attend that one. So, are there any others coming up in the next few months?

I'm interested as well since I'm in the DC area.

Come to Animazement with us at the end of the month Redd!

It's an:

Anime
Manga
Gaming
Japanese Culture, music, art, etc...

Convention that has lots of stuff to do and we're having a Racket meetup there! It runs from the 27th to the 30th and we've got the one and only Majors from here on the boards and the Weddocca crew running the Game Room!

Here's the lowdown on our NC area meetup thread!

Nice plug Mod. This years game room is even bigger, we added a extra room in the Marriott just for music/bemani. This helps with noise and makes more room for more consoles!

Even better retro area with high score events all weekend. We upgraded to 20" Sony PVM also. Let's hope I get that 2600 A/V mod in time...I only ordered it in Feburary

Anyone on the eastern seaboard and considers themselves a gamer needs to attend MAGFest <period>. It's in the DC area (moving to new hotel this year) and goes on right after new years.

Did you miss MAGFest?

Yes. I didn't have the funds to go at the time.
