Penny Arcade Expo 06 is official over.

They're rolling up the banners, piling up the bean bags and airing out the place as I write this.

It was three days of bouncing blue balls, moms, concerts and game play. Three days of gamers getting a chance to connect and play.

That's what makes PAX so unique, I think. It's not just for gamers, it's about them. They're the show, Tycho and Gabe are just along for the ride.

If I had 17,000 friends and the money, patience and wherewithal to throw a party, I'd like to think it would be a little bit like this.

I still have a lot of other things to post, including an interview with the creator of the Fruit Fucker mod, video and impressions from Dark Messiah and the mighty duo themselves: Gabe and Tycho. Check back Monday for the goods. Also you can check out our PAX06 coverage here.
