Around this time last year I was getting ready for PAX. I was excited about going to Seattle and playing games before the game out to the general public. This year, however, is totally different. My excitement no longer stems from the chance of playing debugs builds of various games, but the chance to be reunited with my extended family for a weekend.
If you've never had the chance to hangout with anyone from this community, you might not understand the excitement flowing through Destructoid over the next few weeks. Imagine having a group of friends who you talk to on a near daily basis and never having the opportunity to hang out with them. Then for one glorious weekend, you get the chance to just wild out. With no obligations except for one: enjoy yourself.
I made this video after last years extravaganza because I could not put into words how much I missed everyone. This time next week I'll be in Seattle once again having a great time and wishing some of our fallen soldiers could have made it as well. If you do come to PAX this year, make sure you come say hi to me. I love meeting users in the community and I'm sure we'll have some crazy stories to talk about. I'll be the black guy with the Superman bag.
Epic...although it made me a tad sad with the whole montage/music thing.
PAX will be amazing, but I'm a shy dude and despite being at Dtoid nearly three years I don't really know anyone here all too well. Fuck it though, I'll get the balls to introduce myself to everyone at some point during PAX.
Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
What gives Kryptinite!

LET ME FIX THAT

Don't worry, you'll be forced to do so.
Also, I guess you have to be apart of the PAX Facebook group to see the video. So....join that.
I dont' feel like uploading it to YouTube right now :(
For those going this year... have fun and post pics!! (even the drunk blackmail ones!... ummm... especially those ones!)
Woe is Justice.
NEXT YEAR, HERE WE GO!
