sept 4?
As of yesterday I've decided I am totally going. Now that I own a car, I can totally go wherever the hell I want. (I don't know why I took forever to buy a car... I'm friggin 24) It'll be a fun 12 hour road trip. All I gotta do now is convince whoever manages wherever I find a job in the next little bit that I'll need a week off in September. Should be fun. So you can add me to that roster if you like. ;)

If its Oregon then *shun*. TIMBERS SUCK!
" @AgentJ: I thought the east coast one was the real one. "What? NO! Every PAX has been in the Seattle area, and they are only doing an east coast branch because the audience has doubled almost every year of its existance and they cant hold everything in one facility anymore.
I wish Atlus was coming that way I could get some Persona PSP swag... oh well. Its gonna be great. GB COMMUNITY MEET-UP needs to happen.
" @Dethfish77 said:" I thought I was going to be able to go but I'm seriously doubting it now. Wish I could though. "Deathfish... *fist shake* "
Yeah, I know. I would be going but I just have a lot of personal shit going on. I don't see how I'd be able to spend a weekend in Seattle right now.
Trust me, I'm disappointed. Going to PAX probably would have been the highlight of my year.

Well, for people who think they CAN go, I just updated the OP with the entire show schedule! For people who aren't interested yet, this may just change your mind!
A warning to anyone that wants to go: In his blog today, Tycho said that it is likely the three day passes will sell out TODAY. there are only 400 left. If you want to go, you need to buy ASAP or risk not going at all (or being limited to single day passes)
Edit: Well thats it folks. Sounds like all the three day passes are gone. Stay tuned though, as Gabe had a little "or is it" bit at the end.
Tip: For food walk directly east of the convention center and over the freeway to get to "Capital Hill". Downtown Seattle sucks for food but Capital Hill has a ton of awesome stuff that's within walking distance.

Downtown Seattle sucks for food but Capital Hill has a ton of awesome stuff that's within walking distance. "For the most part I agree, but Pacific Place has a few good places to eat. I'm a fan of Johnny Rockets. Pacific Place is about 2 blocks away from the convention center and while you are there you can buy a soccer jersey that says XBOX 360 on it (XBOX sponsors the Seattle Sounders FC)
