Not much pax news this year?

Maybe it's because I'm hanging out for news that's never going to arrive but the news out of PAX this year seemed pretty thin. It could just be that gdc was full of news this year that made it look weaker.

Anyone else feel the same or did you guys see/hear something that blew you away that maybe I missed?

I don't tune into PAX for video game news regardless of how much comes out of any given event.

There's rarely much big news out of PAX. Especially PAX East, which is early in the year and not the sort of time period companies want to be announcing stuff. It's still a bit too far away from the holiday season, and it's only a couple of months away from E3 where companies actually want to announce stuff.

Wasn't Rock Band 4 a PAX announcement?

There was a lot of Final Fantasy XV stuff, where they showed off the upcoming demo and revealed how you actually play the game. Gamespot uploaded a bunch of videos at least, so I assume that was from PAX?

To be fair, there's a not a lot of big breaking news that comes out of PAX. I think the only difference this year is the Rock Band 4 announcement and it kinda makes sense to have it announced in PAX East since Harmonix is based in Boston after all.

Just announced: Five nights at freddy's 638

I didn't know PAX was known for its news.

And technically GDC isn't a news oriented conference either.

E3 is only 3 months away so I imagine major players are prepping for that while only independent devs look for chances like this to announce stuff.

@darkbeatdk: That was not from PAX. The demo videos went up a while ago (want to say 2 weeks).

@corevi: Ah I see. There was some other stuff I thought of initially, but that was all the VR stuff from GDC, so yeah... a quiet PAX.

I think Rock Band 4 and the next Hearthstone adventure were the only big things I can think of?

Alex joining Team GFB is pretty big news, probably the biggest.

What does GFB means? He is going back to San Francisco?

@aetheldod: Its there wrestling thing that they do, GFB (Get Fucked Boy) is Dave Lang's group which are the heels of the "organization"

@nightriff: Oh..... now I feel dumb :/

@aetheldod: Don't, its something stupid.
