CmdrTaco has a mammoth write-up of his experiences at this year's Penny Arcade Expo. It sounds like it's a must go.
This year the crowds got to watch Gabe ink and color a three panel strip in 45 minutes or so. The Red vs Blue panel sounded both entertaining and enlightening, but the most impressive sounding thing was the expo hall which was packed with booths from the likes of Ubisoft, Nintendo and Turbine.
The whole ting wrapped up with a Saturday night concert by the Minibosses, MC Chris and MC Frontalot.
Here's CT's take on the whole experience:
Does PAX spell the end of E3 or CES? Obviously not. But would I choose PAX over COMDEX? Definitely. Any vendor would be crazy not to want to show their stuff here: this was a very hardcore crowd. Real gamers here to play, and talk about the games they love and hate. It's not about marketing or dollars, just about passion, and that makes for a far more fun weekend.
