PAX Prime 2012: Hands on Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance *Chop Chop Chop*
Back with a Revengeance: Yes, “revengeance” is a made up word that spell check really hates. No, “revengeance” doesn’t roll off the tongue no matter how many times you say it. Yes, “Revengeance” is fun as hell to play.
PAX Prime 2012: Hands on Borderlands 2 – We WUB WUB It!
Unlike PAX: East where only Maya and Salvador were playable, all four character classes were available to choose from at Prime, and I’ve been dying to get my hands on Zero the ninja. Given about 30 skill points to allocate, I ended up dumping almost all of my points into close combat as I was eager to see how this ninja thing really worked.
PAX Prime 2012: Pre Pax Community Gathering Gallery
Thursday night we had the pleasure of helping put together a small gathering of community friends in celebration of PAX: Prime, and we couldn’t have asked for a more memorable experience.

PAX PRIME 2012: The Nerd Appropriate Invasion!
Here we go again. PAX: Prime is here and this we brought backup! Scott, Hilary and myself will all be attending this year’s PAX: Prime, also known as the most gamer-friendly convention in all the land. While we’ve covered a ton of conventions this year (including SDCC, PAX: East, and SWCVI) there is something extra special about PAX: Prime in Seattle. As I stated last year, PAX is a magical place sprinkled with innovation, loud music, and rabid gamers. Barring a severe case of PAX-POX, it’s close to impossible to not have a great time.

Star Wars Celebration VI: Clone Wars Season Five Premiere Event!
My love of Star Wars: The Clone Wars is not a well guarded secret. As a series, the Clone Wars continues to get better and better with each passing season and magically manages to deliver the same action and storytelling nuance that made the Star Wars of old the legend that it is today. I was lucky enough to attend the Clone Wars season five premiere and subsequent press conference at Star Wars Celebration VI, and even got a few bags of force infused popcorn to munch on while we watched! It really did taste better than regular popcorn.
