Hopefully, y’all are making good use of these exhibitor listings. We’ve gotten the latest one, which details the Xbox 360-related portion of PAX East, and there are some hidden gems to be found.
And by that I mean Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet is going to be at the show, alongside other Xbox Live Arcade titles like Double Fine’s Trenched and Twisted Pixel’s The Gunstringer. You’ll definitely want to give that first one a look, if you’re unfamiliar.
Oh, and Epic is bringing twenty Gears of War 3 stations for multiplayer battles. I can only imagine how long those lines will be.
