Attending Eurogamer Expo 2012
Right, I'm attending Eurogamer Expo for the third year in a row.
- In 2010 I was still wet behind the ears and felt adrift at the expo. I still wrote six articles about it though.
- In 2011, I made a live-from-the-show comment feed, a video and a podcast.
- In 2012, I'm going to concentrate on a podcast which I plan to publish on Tuesday 2nd October.
I'm wondering whether to make this my final Expo. September is a crazy month and I'd like to attend something like Bit of Alright or Rezzed next year, try something else. Vanilla is not the only flavour of ice-cream.
Whatever. I'll be there on Friday and Saturday, and this time actually attending as press.
Eurogamer Expo 2011 – Live
Okay, so last year I went to the Eurogamer Expo and came away wondering why I went. I made a few observations:
- Make arrangements to meet other people. Co-op is more fun than the singleplayer campaign, as demonstrated in Tuesday's post.
- Play games properly, don't just dabble.
- Keep your notepad handy.
- Don't bother interviewing.
And against my better judgement, I've decided to give it another go. I'm going for the Friday session and will probably make it to the RPS drinks in the evening. Do say HELLO if you're in the vicinity.
Now, I won't be able to tweet from the expo, but I do believe I'll be able to transmit via the medium of Electron Dance comments. I'm going to turn the comments on this page into a sort of live feed from the show floor. I have no idea how this will turn out. You can subscribe to the comments via e-mail or use this page's RSS comments feed. At least I won't spam my Twitter account with inane updates like WOW MET KERRY TURNER SHE IS A WOMAN IT SEEMS.
If all goes well, there'll be a couple of Expo articles next week - I'm not doing the six-days-in-a-row thing I ended up with last year. Sheesh.
I’m Going To… Eurogamer Expo 2010
This Sunday, the last day of my paternity leave, I'll be doing something very family-oriented. I'll abandon my wife and children to attend the Eurogamer Expo. Just so you know, in case you want to avoid me.
