PAX

The organizers of the sixth annual Penny Arcade gaming festival announced exhibitors and the first programming details. To get you excited if you’re going and sad if, like me, you aren’t.

PAX is held September 4-6 at the Washington State Convention and Trade Center. There will be almost 100 exhibitors there including, Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, Ubisoft, Blizzard and Wizards of the Coast.

Some of the panels are the first live demonstration of Star Wars: The Old Repbulic, demos of Ubisoft’s anticipated titles, PAX 10 independent game showcase, sponsored parties, and two nights of nerdcore concerts.

“PAX IS SO GREAT,” said Robert Khoo of Penny Arcade. “SO GREAT.”

Yeah soooo great. Actually it really is. It was my favorite con of the year last year and I would give anything to be able to go this year. We’ll have quite a few staff there this year, so make sure you say hi and get a button!
