N4G Meet-up and PAX 2009

Hey, guys! I will be at PAX 2009, covering the event for ZTGameDomain, the journo arm of N4G.  For those of you that haven't ventured over to the N4G forums this blog post is to serve two purposes, listed below.  Mostly, however, I just want to welcome you to get involved - whether or not you're attending PAX!

N4G Meet-up: Just saying, if you're there, I'm there, maybe we could all be there together

Between panels, I'll be meeting with a number of people to play games and ask questions. I'd love to include any questions you have for these guys, too, so below is a rough, ever-changing list of some of the teams I'll be meeting with and the games they're featuring.

Media Q&A with Gabe and Tycho
Atari, Star Trek Online
Harmonix, Beatles RB (Chris Foster, Lead Designer)
Telltale, Monkey Island
Ignition, Muramasa   
Funcom, Secret World, Age of Conan
Runic Games, Torchlight
Xbox - Dream-Build-Play     
Playlogic, Fairy Tale Fights
Bethesda, Brink, WET, Rogue Warrior, Doom II, Quake Arena Arcade 
SCEA - MAG
2K - ioshock 2, Borderlands, Mafia II, Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom, Axel & Pixel
Gamevil - HYBRID: Eternal Whisper

I'm not guaranteeing inclusion of all questions you post, but I'll definitely try! Some of the above are just casual meet-ups, others only last 15 minutes, and still others are a whole darn hour.

Let me know what you think!

I'll be there can't wait!!

[Cat]

Fantastic - I'll be the chick with the N4G/ZTGD media badge, meet you by the soda machine. :P

[Dakinggamer87]

Cool!! I've been looking forward to PAX for awhile now..

[NineteenSeventyNine]

You should probably bring some mace to fight off all us fat, depressed 35 year olds.

[Cat]

Hmm. Mace seems like overkill. Think this ties into what I was saying in my comment over here ( http://www.n4g.com/gaming/N... ) about guys getting the short end of the stereotype stick.

Will you be at PAX, too?

Edit: PAX is the Penny Arcade Expo - http://www.paxsite.com/

[NineteenSeventyNine]

Don't really know what PAX is. Will there be cake?

[Columbo]

PAX is lame. Are you going to be at the 136th running of the Kentucky Derby? ;-)

[Cat]

See, you're just bragging. :P Unless you got me tickets and have a julep on standby...

[Columbo]

It could be arranged. I'll Derby you if you E3 me.

[Eiffel]

I never have time to go to these kinds of things. Hope you enjoy your time there.

[RockmanII7]

I'll be at the ball game

[Cat]

I am surprised there aren't more N4Gers in the Settle area/attending PAX - I should just stand at the entrance and hand out N4G t-shirts.

[TheColbertinator]

lol I'm sorry Catastrophe.

[Dakinggamer87]

I would like some N4G T-shirts been wanting one for awhile.. If at entrance that would help me find ya..

[snoop_dizzle]

You should send me a shirt since I can't be there. ;)

[GiantEnemyCrab]

I will be at PAX so I might stop by and say "Hi Cat"

[Cat]

Awesome!

My schedule is jam-packed, but if there are specific panels you know you're going to hit let me know. Otherwise, follow me on twitter (twitter.com/cathlin ), should be easy to run into each other that way!

[Cat]

Are either of you going to the MAG party Friday night?

[GiantEnemyCrab]

I will not be attending the MAG party. :(

Oh and don't forget to bring an umbrella.. Typical Seattle weather will be making it's return this weekend.

[Cat]

Yep - In Seattle with umbrella in tow, though it cleared up nicely! Already had a good lunch, did some shopping, picked up the media badge, and checked into Hotel. Whew...dinner, anyone?

[Dakinggamer87]

I can't wait to try MAG since I haven't got a beta invite yet

[Marceles]

Seattle...*long siiiiiigh*, guess I won't make it
