I am super-James-Brown-excited for this years PAX Prime, what with this being a new console launch year. Looking forward to meeting everyone from the site that can make it!

For that, as long as it takes :). I'll probably line up for that first thing, day one. I was at E3 when the Vita launched, and the line went fairly quickly. I'm sure they'll have plenty of consoles there.

That will probably be the one line that I'll dump patience into, especially if Destiny is playable. I want to see how that whole combination feels: a Bungie game on a Sony system, with the new DualShock 4. If an FPS feel good with that controller then I'll be supremely satisfied. I never liked the DualShock 3 with FPSs, just felt off for me, but felt right with everything else.

Th rest of my time will likely be bumming around the Indie corner, and the table top area. I want to finally play a game of D & D!

Hey, I have a bead on an extra Monday pass. Are you still interested?

@scrypt Still have that bead?

Unfortunately not, bean. My friend ended up selling on eBay. I'll ask around though. I heard rumor that there was one in our group that might have to leave early in the weekend for work. If there is anything there, I'll let you know.

@scrypt thanks. Really appreciate it.

Count me in. I'll probably be on sometime Saturday night.

I created a Human Guardian on the same server as you guys, but I haven't logged in to actually play yet. :P I saw this on-line btw: http://nerdybookahs.wordpress.com/2012/09/22/how-to-switch-between-the-starter-areas-in-guild-wars-2/

Looks like we all start in an instanced tutorial level, and then once we're out we can travel to each others starting locations.

I'm Taion.4056

Anyone else going to log in after the Cheerfulghost round table? I will probably be on. :)

Well I didn't get to spend as much time in GW2 as I had hoped, but I still got to play it enough that I can say it's pretty cool. I may not spring for this while it's full price, but if i see it go on sale I'll probably pick it up. I mostly played as a guardian which was pretty cool, and a little bit as an Engineer but not really enough to form an opinion of the class. What did you guys think?

Yeah, a free week would have been good. I would have liked to try it out a bit more. One moment that really stood out for me was a random event that took place near the Human starting area. I tried to warp to a waypoint at the nearby garrison but was told the area was "contested." So now my curiosity was piqued, and I ran over there to see what was up. A group of centaurs had taken over the garrison and I had to break down the door to get inside. Once inside, a group of NPC's joined me to help free the garrison. Some other PC's ended up joining the fight and we all worked together (without actually being in a party, which is kinda cool) to take back the garrison.

DAMN! Not fast enough for this one. The next one, perhaps, now that I have a machine that runs this well enough to play with others.

Thanks for the heads up, Travis. Are event times localized?

All set!

And this is version 2. I'll be in there in about 10 minutes.

That was ridiculously fun. Sorry about the voice thing. Turns out it's a long-standing bug in Steam or Pulseaudio. Apparently, there's a workaround and I'm going to give that a shot.

Definitely down to do that again whenever.

Well, voice works in the Steam app proper (so far as I can tell), but once you're in L4D2 the mic shuts off completely. I'm going to jump into Awesomenauts and see if the problem is there, too.

I pressed 'C' a few times last night and the bubble over my character showed I was chatting, but no one heard me. I am still unable to get voice chat to work in L4D2 at all. I'm not the only person having the problem and I've even tried a few things that were suggested on the forums. Still no dice.

It works in the Steam settings but nowhere else seemingly.

If anyone ever has a moment and would be willing to help me test my configuration, please let me know. Want to confirm that it works anywhere but the settings. Voice chat in group or in-game would be preferable.

I'm totally up for this. I've wanted to play starcraft 2 for awhile now. I'll pick up the starter kit thing for this.

I have skype and mumble.

Alright. when you go to add me on battlenet, my character name is Kobah and my character code is 598.

It's kinda early, but I'm sure my infant son will wake me up in time for the Chasm event at 8am. :)

Ever thought about maybe hosting a google hangout or some sort of chat for the people watching the stream? That way you could discuss the games they show and stuff.

Hopped on for a bit and watched them play Broforce. It is on the PC and looks like a really fun sidescroller with LOTS of explosions. Also it looks like it can be played Co-op and they were also talking about multiplayer modes that might be added such as deathmatch.

That was super fun, and satisfying to beat finally, thanks to all of you!

The new avatar is a photoshop doodle I was messing with yesterday. Nothing significant, just blended colors and shapes that made me happy. Glad you dig it :).
