It's with squeals of delight that I present to you the floor plan for this year's Penny Arcade Expo, set to take place August 29 through August 31. Go look at the calendar ... that's soon!
Looking at the map, I have to wonder -- who's not going to be there? I spy with my little eye Sony, Microsoft, The Behemoth, Rockstar Games, Bungie, Electronic Arts, Harmonix ...phew. Bethesda Softwork's booth is almost as big as Microsoft's; can we ever really get enough Fallout 3, though?
This right here is just a sample of the action that's taking place on the show floor. This is to say nothing of the panels and other periphery events that will be taking place at PAX 08.
This event is a far cry from the long, sterile hallways of this year's E3. A huge chunk of Destructoid will be attending this year, and while we fully intend on covering anything worth covering, we intend to have fun. Lots of fun. Who's with us?

...not that I'm going or anything. I'm a lame lamer.
I can't wait.
Guys, I'm so pumped for PAX... you have no idea
I have been planning to attend PAX for awhile. Really looking forward to this, and meeting a bunch of fun people.
Try Missouri.
Just wondering..
Try Australia. Heh. Yeah, now you don't feel quite as left out.
@killias2:
Since E3 stopped being for gamers, and since PAX was always a show for the fans, and publishers could just take their stuff from E3 and let the public have at it. Now it's the place to go to let the public see what you've got.
Also: sequels of delight? Does the Destructoid robot not have a proof reader? I hate being a grammar/spelling nazi, but geez, malpropisms are just going too far!
Yeah, I guess that makes sense. It just seems like it quickly switched from minor gamer event to HUGE gamer event in just a few years. Maybe I just wasn't following PAX before though....
Bungie had a Halo store set up last year. How do I know this? My fucking backpack's zipper came off (luckily the bag was all zipped up) in Newark airport and we had to cut my bag open when we got to Seattle. I ended up buying a Halo 3 backpack (which very comfortably fits my 360 + accessories).
ALso...I'M SO EXCITED!
BRAWNDO THE THIRST MUTILATOR.
I went to the first one, oh-so-long-ago, and wasn't that impressed. I've heard it's improved, and hope that's true.
Hope to see some of you there ;D
And the rest of you.. well, try better next time. ;)
See YOU there!!
This is going to be so rad.
