I've got tickets for the Friday.

I haven't been before but have been to TGS a couple of times. I imagine that this will be slightly less manic but there will actually be people queuing for the Xbox stands.

I'll be there all week, or for the first three days at least. It's great to have it so close for a change!

I've only ever gone for one day before now, and there's a lot of stuff I couldn't take the time to enjoy. I'm really looking forward to this one.

I may take a day off work and go to this. It looks pretty good - just a shame i will have to drive or train it all the way to Birmingham!

If anyone goes, find Ad7 and kick him in the throat for me, and you will be the recipient of Buffalo's Golden Ticket, allowing one free ban of your choice.

Today is the day :toot:

Not sure how long I'm actually going to be there for as I'm now going with someone else from work (I'd have been on my way by now) but hopefully I'll get a good 4 or so hours in.

Back from this now.

Was pretty good, I've seen and played a lot of the stuff so didn't bother queueing for anything. You should have seen the ass creed queue, madness.

The state of star fox Zero :lol: :dread:

Did you get to play anything else? Certainly wouldn't have gone if all I could get my hands on was Star Fox Zero :lol:

Didn't play anything, I iust stood next to people playing a lot of the games. Xenoblade looked great and quite monster hunter esq, starfox looked bloody awful, gooseberry fool graphics, the 3 people I watched playing it didn't get the pad aiming and couldn't concentrate on both at once, just looked gooseberry fool.

Actually I played guitar hero and some Wii u indie kids game because I wanted to take a picture of their POS display, got chatting and then played a game with them.

I'd have gone if I was guaranteed a go on PlayStation VR, then I'd have happily spent the day watching others and enjoying the atmosphere.

I went to the booth, told them I registered but never heard back (which was true) and they put me on a waiting list and said they'd text me when there was a free slot. Then my wonderful banana split of an iPhone decided to stop sending or receiving text messages (we tested). So I probably had a go but didn't know it. Moral of story, don't have an iPhone.
