PAX Day 1 *Probably Long*IMG*
Posted By: Devin Olsen <DevinOlsen@Gmail.com>	Date: 9/5/09 3:49 a.m.
That was an insanely long day! But I had a blast... So yesterday we rolled into Seattle sometime in the mid-afternoon. We checked into our Hotel and then met up with Max for a quick bite to eat (KFC... they didn't have they double down sandwich's... I was devastated). Double down goodness... almost Afterwards we went back to the hotel and got to bed pretty early so we could wake up early for PAX. goatrope and Crab hanging out in the room We woke up early, had an awesome (free) breakfast and then headed off to PAX. oh man free breakfast I would definitely be jealous if I were you We arrived at the convention center around 8:30AM grabbed our tickets and then queued up in a _massive_ line. Massive line... wait.. no. This is just the line to get the pass. THEN you can wait in line Here is the line After watching a bunch of obnoxious youtube videos and over used internet memes, we were let into Expo. Line folk The booths this year are all pretty incredible... PAX is becoming closer and closer to E3 each year, which is definitely a good thing... I will say though, it has been getting busier and busier each year; and I can imagine tomorrow is going to be even worse then today was. New Splinter Cell! Looked amazing Regardless, the booths were a blast to walk thru, and Swag was being handed out freely. skipping ahead here... but Swag from the whole day! At around 2:00 we lined up for the 'Prepare to Drop' ODST Panel that was going to be presented at 3:30... When we got upstairs to the theater we saw another _huge_ lineup... We fumbled our way around until we found the end up the line, and then hung out for a couple hours until the Panel started. Leaving the panel... look at alllll of the people The panel overall was really good... There was a bunch of cool information about ODST and all the development that has gone into it... And all of the guys were actually hilarious and fun to listen to. After the slideshow/marty music, they did a Q&A... Most of the questions were better answered by google rather then asking the Bungie guys (how many new maps are on Halo Mythic... ....), but some of the questions were quite surprising and really informative. I have videos of all of the questions, I will try and upload as many as possible later This one question though... Is my absolute favorite. Why is there no BR in ODST - PAX Panel Question After then panel we just checked out some more booths and got a chance to play some Firefight (ton of fun, but I've already written up my impressions from when I played at Seattle.. so I wont bore you guys). Logan and I playing Firefight It's late and I need to get to bed soon, so I apologize if the write up is a little lacking... More pictures tomorrow though! And if anyone wants pictures of anything or has any questions let me know and I'll try and answer what I can. -enjoy More misc pictures Major Nelson! SC2 Booth (shout outs HP)
