Been a while since I last posted. So I thought id start a topic.
After a successful 2 day visit in 2013 I am going again this year... in fact, this Saturday I will be there.
Last year was great. Saw some titles that had yet to be released and played them. My most memorable wait was for Battlefield 4. The booths were kitted out very well. 2 x 64. 30 min game play... but after a miserable 6 hour wait it was a complete let down and the freebies promised were all gone and 60€ preorder put me right off.
On the other hand. Just a 30min well organised CoD Ghosts wait to play with some decent freebies was boss.
I was banned from the Sony department after I argued the fact that despite not wearing my age tag... which at some booths was useless I also did not have my ID which I survived without for a whole day. Apparently I looked under age with a full beard and 4 credit cards one including american express... just wasn't convincing. Luckily I had made a copy of it with my phone and when I showed them that they removed my ban... the so called exclusive content wasn't so exclusive after all.
Watchdogs was there but the consoles all overheated and had to close it off. Only a handful of people saw it live.
Surprisingly Microsoft Xbox One booth was the best. They put in a lot of effort and let you talk with top people in the open... yes master chief was there but he wasn't in a good mood.
Pics to follow...
Anyone going this year?
