Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.

When are you next going?

No idea. The last one that I was at, real life considerations forced my wife and I to leave early. Last year and this, real life prevented our attending. Next year? Who knows?

We both love the city, the area, the people, and PAX just makes it all the more exciting and fun (even for old farts like us).

I plan on trying again next year.

You should totally move out here. There's some perfect old fart townhouses for you to live in.

I'm sure you could get into one of the Bnet Post PAX parties if you tried hard enough, hah.

And if anyone wants to donate money I'll go next year.

You people have just sent my sides into orbit. A bunch of MLG try hards sucking the dick of some supposed pro half the thread hasn't even heard of. Classic.

Glad I did not go this year. I would have missed out on Cedar Point later this month and this great earthquake/hurricane combo I am experiencing.

Hurriquake sounds about right. Only good thing to come out of it is I got out of work earlier then usual. Only took me a couple minutes to pack away all the games.

But anyway, did anyone happen to take trip to the valve booth :S

It was very.

Anyways, day one of PAX is over, and I promised people I would inform them on the many things that occured. Firstly, those of you that are visual learners can check out my twitter account (@RollinRollin13) for all the pictures I took. Second, I promise more, higher quality pictures tomorrow, as I will actually have a camera then, but as a consequence I wont be uploading as many to twitter.

Halo Fest was interesting, the VIP party was meh though. :/
They had a lot of the multiplayer maps up for playing at Halo Fest, as well as the Fire Fight map "Installation 004" (which has AI marines fighting by your side against the Covenant).

There were some very cool Mega Block creations (a giant Master Chief and 343 Guilty Spark), but I'm still a Lego man, so I wasn't that impressed.

Some other interesting things was that Halo Waypoint's new website looks a lot like a certain website we're on right now. From the front page to their supposedly "superior" game history page (it's exactly the same). Long story short, Bungie > 343i always and forever.

The Halo Anniversary, and Halo Universe panels where fun (shout out to Marty for making the Universe panel very fun!), but I wont' get into too many details. Tomorrow is the panel with Bungie, so I'll save my save my typing abilities tomorrow.

More information coming tomorrow, and check back later for some interesting videos and pictures from other users.

I liked the HaloFest VIP party for at least two reasons.

Looking forward to seeing Cryptic's write-up. He was taking pictures of everyone.

Hehe, I'm going to take that last bit as an innuendo.

Day two of PAX was great. Saw the last Bungie Halo panel ever, played Crimson, and got an epic Crimson t-shirt that managed to turn a few heads. I promise a prettier and longer write up for today, tomorrow, along with tomorrows write up, but for tonight, I need sleep. OP is updated with pics and links though.
