Street Fighter IV cabinets there for you to get your brawl on in. And when you demo their other games, you might get freebies, like a cool Ryu
SF IV headband.

Kristen Kreuk, here I come!!! I mean... er, yay..comics. woo.
Capcom often sells off old stock at great prices at Con, too. Might get me some "new" games while I'm there.
On another note, I think it would be cool if Destructoid expanded Dale's site into a full fledged music blog. I mean, we already got toys, anime, pop culture, and octopuses. Music is the next logical step. Besides, I'm sick of getting all my music news from Pitchfork and the AV club.
I'll be waiting for the RE5-trailer!
