Well It's that time of year again and once again I find myself in Seattle for PAX Prime. I'll be trying to get as much info out over the next 3 days as possible with pictures of all the shiny new games and the trade floor (which I might add is nearly double the size this year). You can check back here or follow my misadventures on twitter @3pgPAX.
Today's adventures were more of airport/customs fun, finding hotel, food and then ending up at a board game PAX meet up where we took over the Sheraton Hotel Lobby.
Citadels is card game for 2-7 player of bluffing, building, diplomacy and accidental back stabbing, it will make more sense in a minute, I swear. The objective of the game was to build buildings for your citadel, all which cost a varying different amount of gold between 1 and 6. Each player had a role card, which grants them an extra ability or income each turn, that you also go to change at the end of every round. Starting with one player each player at the top of each round shuffled through the 8 different role cards and chose one in secret from everyone else, until there were none remaining. Each class has a different turn order, labelled from 1-8 that will always be the same, so for instance the Assassin is always the first person to go in a round, they get to choose one other role to assassinate each round and they miss that round. I say role because they aren't choose a player, they say I'm assassinating the Merchant, not really knowing who they are until it becomes the merchants turn and a corpse turns up.
All in all a lot of fun, a bit slow on the uptake but once it got rolling it was a lot more about guessing who to screw and how.
The gem of the night though was Fantasy Flight Games' Red November, a cooperative board game where 6 gnomes are on a submarine with a bunch of vodka that's breaking down. Everyone has to work together to keep themselves alive as fires break out, bulkheads get blocked, parts of the sub flood and if you're really unlucky, a kraken attack. It was much simpler and a hectic crazy of "Well do we put out the fire or try and stop the missile bay from exploding". It's also great playing a game where vodka makes you more powerful. Although sadly, just like in real life there is the consequences of the hangover.
Over all a great first day and I need to give a shout out to a few of the guys over at The Modern Day Pirates who we were board gaming with most of the night.
That about wraps up the festivities of pre-PAX. I'm off to bed to rest of for a day of gaming sensory overload.
I do ask over the next couple of days you bear with my spelling and grammar abilities, or lack thereof, as well pictures being updated later into the posts as my main goal is to get information out as fast as possible this weekend with the intent of tidiness a little bit later.
Cheers from PAX. |

There are things about being a gamer that makes me inwardly cringe. I think about some of our community members that love gaming so much that they play everything and anything. One of our admins, Labfiend, has one of the largest Steam catalogs I think that is out there. It is amazing. He has probably played more games than I ever will. And he hasn't stopped yet.
Think about that. No matter how long I play or how many games I buy, I will never catch up. Then I think about my games, what I have played, what I have enjoyed, and I have to hang my head in shame. What's my dirty secret?
I am a total game snob. "Horrifically snobbish" would fit. I only play a very small selection of games good enough for me. I am full of disdain for everything else. Imagine if a self-proclaimed "Movie Geek" claimed he only watched movies from Paramount. He obviously is not a geek if he isn't watching everything. Right? So I guess I am not a gaming geek if I don't play everything, right?
Does the logic follow on this?
I have never played a Playstation 2 or 3 or PSP. I have never touched an XBOX, ever. I touched a VirtualBoy once, and I felt very dirty afterwards. I never played Diablo, any of them. I never touched any of the Sims games. I have never played many of those games that you all consider necessary to have experienced to be called a Gamer. I find that I fall into one game at a time and play until the next best one comes along. I have my single player queue and my multiplayer queue. That's it. Two games at a time.
What do you think? Is a Gamer defined by their game catalog? Or are they defined by their way of life? Meaning is it action that defines them or the love of games that defines them? Discuss. |

Well, well, you made me proud. Barely. By a fraction of an inch. Don't let it go to your head, because after all, you are still a maggot. So I announce stats to the world, and what do you all do? You all become statwhores. Every single one of you. Horrible.
I mean look at these numbers. If this was a WAR, well color me happy, because you soldiers are kicking some demo ass.You win a free punch to the ribs, and a haircut!
Soldier picked 3,963 times with 24,861 kills Demo picked 3,147 times with 18,593 kills
However, that upstart mutey pyro has been picked more, but with a lot less kills than the demo and only half as much as the greatest american hero, the Soldier. So you pyros, be looking for rockets coming your way... because I'm gunning for you, you little rubber covered freakshows! Here is a form letter to use when you are dead:
Dear _____
The Soldier blew me up. I am a chunky red smear on a canyon wall.
Please bring sponges.
Signed, Loser Pyro.
Cuh-rit! Or should I say BURN?
Dismissed. |
