No. Unfortunately, I live on the East Coast and don't have the money or the time to go. I wish PAX East was held during the summer so I can go then.

Nope. I just in general have no interest in that one. If anything, I'd like to go to Winter Comiket soon. Maybe I'll have enough this year, but not sure yet.

Not this year due to not having the disposable income at the time needed for reasonably priced flights from the UK. I did make it there in 2006 though and had an awesome time, so if I can afford to maybe PAX East and/or Prime will be on the cards for 2011.

Nope, I dont do conventions. Lets say the people, atmosphere, topics, entertainment, humour, etc available there is not my thing.

I live about 5 blocks away, but I'm not going. Not a convention guy. I'll hear about anything interesting the next day anyways.

EDIT: Just realized the gents form Loading Ready Run will be there. And they will also be screening all the escapist videos on a big screen. Also, reading all the events, this looks awesome. Too bad its already sold out. FUUUUUUUUUUUCK. I'm so going next year.

I wish I was going, but I live in Philly. Seattle's a little far for a con. But I have every intention of going to PAX East :)

Probably not, its a little out of my way to go and fly all the way to Pax just for a 3 day convention that I won't really care about (I'm not even a big fan of Penny Arcade). I'm saving up for Escapism UK as it is.

Can't say I'm a fan of Penny Arcade themselves (never got into them), but they damn know how to throw a convention. PAX '08 was some of the most fun I had in a long time and I met a lot of kickass people there as well. Most certainly looking forward to meeting new people and having a hell of a time.

i would, it would be fun. but i have no money for it (saving for a laptop), and i cant get to seattle this year (its in seattle right?) maybe in a couple years ill head down with my freinds. they think its extremely nerdy but i think they would want to go to a convention like this anyway for a few hours at least (they are girls).

Well I'm pissed because I know Ankama is going to be there and I would kill a man to get one of their artbooks. Anyway, how the hell would I get to Seattle? I'd have to do something pretty drastic. So I said, "I don't go to cons" but mostly because I'm what they call low-class, or 80% of the population.

My being poor, of course, has a lot to do with my decision-making, like why I don't have any current-generation consoles.
