So! The reason I've kicked off this blog on this particular week, is because this weekend, Sunday to be precise, I'll be attending Gamefest. For those not in the know, Game is the UK's biggest video game retailer, and they're holding their own show for the first time this year. Tons of games are going to be there and I plan to get hands-on time with as many as possible. Mass Effect 3, Modern Warfare 3, Arkham City, Uncharted 3, Dark Souls, Skyrim, Rayman Origins, Street Fighter x Tekken, Asura's Wrath, Battlefield 3, RAGE, Assassin's Creed: Revelations, and a few Kinect titles are top of the (lengthy) list of games I want to see. I've always dreamt of attending an event like this and this is my first real opportunity so, frankly, I'm pretty excited. I also have very little idea what to expect, I might manage to see everything I want, or it might be so crowded that I'll be lucky to only play one or two games. Either way, it'll be an experience, and hopefully the first of many game shows for me. I'm also hoping for free swag but don't want to set my expectation bar too high.
Before the end of the week I'll try and post a little more pre-event rambling about the games I want to see and my expectations, then next week I plan on writing quite a bit about my experience at the event and impressions of everything I saw there, along with any pictures I manage to take on the day. So look forward to that!
