PAX ftw

I went to PAX this weekend and it was awesome.  Last thing I did there was go see the Spore presentation and it got me all excited for Spore again.  I've now officially preordered it and will be playing in about 5 days 19 hours.  So if you get it let me know your name so I can get ur creatures in my world and stuff.

Left 4 Dead, zombie survival FPS type thing where you have to play 4 player co-op.  Has neat stuff... looks cool.
Little Big Planet has always looked awesome, I'm still confused how the game will actually play, though.  I'm gonna keep my eye on it for sure.
Dawn of War II looks pretty awesome.  It's not really an RTS, kinda RTS style squad control, which is better for me.
Warhammer Online is now officially lame.  I'm not interested.
Got to play with the D&D character creation and visualization tools.  Coming to beta "soon".  They look quite comprehensive.  I wish they'd let me have them now.
Prince of Persia looks like it was made for me.  I will have it someday, regardless of the fact that I'll have to buy a new system and tv.  I'm working on convicning myself to hold off past release day so I the purchases make a little more sense.
Pat says Fallout 3 looks pretty amazing.  I didn't go see it in a failed attempt to spread out our experience, but it does sound very cool.
There were tons of other games that looked interesting.  Far Cry 2 didn't look sucky, Dragon Age seemed interesting, Demigods seems to be DotA only on purpose, Aieon or something was MMO w/ flying, then there's Guitar Hero 4 w/ drums of coolness.

Oh, also, Gamer's 2: Dorkness Rising is great.  Maybe better than the first one, which I loved.  Must see for anyone who's played D&D.

I also saw Ling, from Central and a few of the GEEC club people.  Saw Tristan and some of his crew from Linfield.  Saw Kim's friend with sideburns, and Doug from Tri-Cities.  Saw the TRS guys, Adam Savage, Wil Wheaton, a few of the 1UP guys, JoCo, and of course the Penny Arcade creators from celebrity land.

My beard was praised many times.  I even found a few people with similar looks.  So, in conclusion, PAX rules..
