Cool iPhone game
This is the iPhone game that N8 should've brought to PAX 09 for us to play. It looks simple and fun. It's called 'LightBike'.

PAX 09 Videos
Here are a few videos from PAX 09. The sound and video quality kind of suck, because they were taken with my cell phone, so don't complain... I warned you.
*videos below*
first video is a video I took while we were waiting in line on Day 1 of PAX. The doors to the Exhibition Hall don't 'technically' open till 10a, but that doesn't stop people from showing up early and waiting in line (including us).
second video is a video of a girl riding the mechanized bull in the Darksiders' Booth. It's pretty cool that they had something like a mechanized bull there for attendees to bust their ass on.
third video is a short video of the concert from Friday night where they play videogame music (there was another one Saturday night... but there was no way I was going to waste my time doing that shit again!!!) Also, I'm gonna say it again... my phone camera sux. So the quality of video and sound is pretty crappy, but you can get the idea of how many people were there and what it looked like.

PAX 09 (Part 3)
(continued from Part 1 and Part 2) PAX 09 was so amazing... it truly was the best gaming experience I've ever had despite the fact that I believe I got sick there. It still didn't damper my experience though. It is so much better than Gen Con IMO. Well, here are the rest of the PAX pics from Day 2 and Day 3. *Pics Below*


The 'Tru Blood' HBO show now has an energy drink. Yes. I'm serious. I'm not kidding. But there was a joke going around that the formula got mixed up with a proposed 'Lord of the Rings' energy drink and instead of turning you into a vampire, it turns you into a hobbit.

PAX 09 (Part 2)
(Continued from Part 1) - The second part of day 1 of PAX '09 was better than the first part. Around noon as we were walking back to the room, guess who we saw walking into The Cheesecake Factory? Freakin Morgan Webb and Blair Herter!!! They are hosts on G4tv (the videogame channel). I religiously watch Xplay on G4... so this was a big deal to me. And on top of that I just found out a few weeks ago that Blair Herter is from Lafayette, LA! I approached him and spoke to him a bit about him being from Louisiana and how surprised I was to find that out. And after a few minutes, their table was ready and he offered to buy us a round of drinks later that night if he saw us out. I couldn't believe how nice he was. But he is from Louisiana, so what do you expect?

After my starstruck episode, we went back to PAX and realized it was a lot more crowded than it was when we left. Still, we walked around and made the most of it. Eventually we ended up at the Friday night concert, but it was not very enjoyable probably because there was no alcohol. And alcohol is necessary to have fun. We decided instead to head back to the boardgame room and play 'Race for the Galaxy' instead. Then we went back to the room for sleep. Looking forward to tomorrow. It'll be a long day. *pics below*
