    My favorite moment was seeing the Wolf Alex Navarro take out Dan and reveal he was colluding with GFB.

    What were your favorite moments of PAX East this year?

    @dr_insane: Yea it was pretty funny seeing Dr. Tracksuit smash glass and subsequently a guitar on his own head. I later saw someone waltzing around with the broken handle of that guitar which I thought was funny.

    Drinking a Bonus Soda from the makers of Soda Drinker Pro. The Soda Drinker Pro people developed an actual soda that was available at the show and it was legitimately good.

    I heard someone say on a microphone that something in a game was like "Mario with an attitude" and I almost fell down trying to figure out from where.

    I also spent way too much time playing Soul Calibur with a Sega Bass Fishing motion controller

    Worst part about PAX: Every joint in my body hurts and maybe some joints I wasn't even aware of until today

    My favorite was watching Dan tear himself apart trying to accept that time travel isn't possible. Also, that one guy who kept asking how to recover from looking like an idiot and the entire panel goofing on him hard. Holy shit that was amazing.

    I got you two covered ;-]

    The GB Panel was great (save the Q&A which are almost universally bad). PAXMANIA was awesome.

    The Video Sausage panel was really good. It also featured something that a unicorn would find to be rare. It had a good Q&A session. The people asking weren't trying to get a joke out, or spurt some fanboy nonsense. It was really informative. I think everyone in the world who wants to ask a question at a panel should have to listen to it (it was recorded with audio iirc).

    Worst thing was amplitude. That have sucks and I hate it. Boooooo to all you Kickstarers (Note I was an Omeganaut and lost in the second round because of amplitude)

    The biggest bummer was that Mary Kish didn't make it to the PAX rumble. As much as I loved the commish, "the dog walker" bit was my favorite part of the panel.

    So, is the 404in it panel worth watching? They seems like a great line up, but those things can be quite hit or miss.

    Only watched the PAX East Mania, and Greg Miller was the best part. Never have been a big fan of his (find him annoying most of the time) but he nailed that role in their stupid wrestling play. Might be my favorite character now, he was extremely funny.

    @beyondstrange: Yes, the 404ing It panel is worth watching. It had some good videos, and vines even.

    For non-GB stuff, I really enjoyed the FFXV panel. Informative and enthusiastic.

    The GB Panel was good as usual. The PAXAMANIA thing was sooooo dumb but in the best way possible. Mary Kish and Sweary appearing was random but great, Greg did a fantastic job, and the throwdown between Alex and Dan was definitely a thing that happened. Also Rich Gallup sold the IGC really well, and at such a great cost to join too.

    I was at the show, so basically my favorite part was everything. The kids playing tabletop. Fathers dressed in costume with their kids. All the gender bending.

    Ah, who am I kidding. It was giving Jeff my Tim Allen book and him reading it.

    But in all seriousness, I might put up a rambly blog post about my show experience. Didn't take many photos, but got awesome hugs from esteemed members of Team GFB and Indie Love Coalition. Met some forum chuckle heads (from here and a different forum, weirdly enough) who were all rad. Played Steel Battalion. Got bopped by PSeg.

    The list goes on. And now I'm sitting in my hotel. PAX comedown is real.

    Winning a wooden box at the Guild Wars 2 booth in a trivia contest and then playing the devs in their new pvp mode after the show floor closed.
