Now that the schedule is out, my excitement for PAX East is getting out of control. 
 
Major Nelson is hosting a meeting on Friday morning that I hope to get to. It is a block from my hotel so it will be easier to get to then last years, that was at MIT across the Charles. I talked to some people that went to the meetup last year and they said hardly anyone was there and everyone was really nice. I've been listening to his podcast for awhile so it would be nice to talk to the people who I listen to each week. 
 
The Giant Bomb panel is the one I'm looking forward to most. I was sad they didn't have one last year but I think a lot of people were wondering how successful a East Coast Pax would be. I'm glad it was a hit and everyone is coming this time. 
 
 The Twisted Pixel Variety Hour is another Must see. I've loved each of their games and hope their new Kinect game will be shown off.
 
Last year i entered the Peggle tournament and came in second place. It is my go to time killer since I have it on my iPhone, iPod, PC and 360. I want to enter it again this year but it is during the  World Exclusive Demo of "Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning". After seeing the teaser trailer last year I've been excited for this game. I really don't know which I would rather do. If the demo is playable there, which i doubt it will be, then missing the panel would be ok. Also the die hard Red Sox fan in me doesn't want to miss a chance to see Curt Schilling talk about his upcoming game. I think this will be a last minute decision.
 
I've only skimmed the schedule a few times looking to see what there is this year. I hope to print it out and look more closely this week. Anyway they released the floor plan of the Expo Hall and three of the showcase games today. Its going to be a long three weeks till PAX!!!
