5 things to do if you're not at PAX
Gibbo | 5:58 PM on 08.27.2008 20 comments



Well it may seem like the whole of the Dtoid Army is amassing to invade PAX 2008 but there are some of us who can't get to PAX, whether because we're from different parts of the world, we don't have any money or we're too young to be raped. So what the hell are we supposed to do while we miss out on this weekend of rape? Well here are 5 things you could do in that time.


1.Cry
Well it just sucks not being able to go to PAX, so why not open up your emotions and cry about it over IRC or Skype or by some over means. You could go one step further but it's not recommended.


2.Castle Crashers
This game is so fun and kickass and is well worth the 1200 points it's priced at. With 4 player online co-op, you can be sure to have plenty of fun crashing castles with your fellow non-PAX'ers. If you're still unsure, just play the trial.


3.Friday Night Fights
Chances are that you take part in this religious Destructoid Event already but since people are at PAX, why not make it better than ever and rub their noses in it? With a good selection of games to choose from and with Castle Crashers just out, there couldn't be a better time to kill each other in various fashions.


4.Blog
Think about it, if you're not the best blogger, now's your chance. With all those PAX people away, your Blog won't be so heavily criticized in quality and you will become popular! And you want to be a cool Kid Right?


5.The Dark Knight
GO SEE IT. GO SEE IT AGAIN. DO IT.

So there you have, 5 ways to have a better time than you ever would have had at that silly PAX. Do they have Satire at PAX? Well, DO THEY?

We have glorious fountains of satire, flowing down from the ceiling and splashing onto the roflrocks below. Take that :P

I think I'm the only one who doesn't care about PAX, with the exception of any video game news announcements made there.

I think i'll side with Sadistic on this. I want to go to PAX. but i'm not in a "Killing mood" or some sort to get there or care.

plus half of that might be because it's of course, nowhere near me and cause my mind still lingers over Otakon...

8. Build your own PAX out of cardboard, fairy liquid bottles, yogurt pots and double sided sticky tape.

Yeah, I wanna see that fucking magic trick again.

(note, TDK is a great movie, and I don't mean any offense to it)

I still haven't seen the Dark Knight. Now I feel like an asshole. Why did movieforumz.net have to disappear?

I will do all of the above, but I don't have a 360, so castle crashers might be a problem :(
