    We're barely under three months away from the eighth annual Penny Arcade Expo, and today it is officially sold out. No more tickets. Three Day passes sold out two weeks ago. Single day passes lingered a little longer with Sunday being the final day to sell out completely. That's a complete sell out less than seven weeks after going on sale and after they increased the number available by 10% over last year. And it's also after PAX East 2011 was the highest attended PAX in history. One would think that having an east coast show would alleviate some of the attendance at the west coast show, but clearly that's not the case.

    So, apologies to those who thought they might go and didn't buy tickets yet, but who's gonna be there this year?

    You totally should! I'm this fucking close to buying that penguin suit and collecting money for child's play.

    I still need to book my flight, but barring disaster, I should be there.

    Wasn't planning to go, but the hopes that Forza 4 will be there was far too much to resist.

    With such demand I smell a gap in the market for WhiskeyCon 2012 * 
     
    Working title - would have to be called something else or you would get puzzled looking neck-beards turning up asking where the islay single malt booth was located.

    @PsEG: If it's really coming out in October, it's a pretty safe bet that it will be in MS's booth at PAX.

    I know for a fact WIll Smith is going.  Better to organize it so people pay to see him put the costume back on for charity.
