+Lathe26 Posted April 8, 2018 Author Share Posted April 8, 2018 Any Intellivision action going on here? Past year, the Intellivision presence was modest. However, there is a higher than typical number of French-Canadian games (of course) and I've found the red variant of Space Armada there.

CrazyBoss Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 wanted to go, but the it will be $550 (US) for the Flight, and back trip is around 24h and then need to add for hotel fee too, not sure its to cheap there Maybe Portland 2018 ? Who knows. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intymike Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) I think Portland is more worth the effort. I've heard the some crazy European guys already attended the PRGE. btw. Maybe Vancouver would the place to go if cmart604 were at home this time. Edited April 9, 2018 by Intymike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Vancouver would the place to go if cmart604 were at home this time. I agree. VRGE is similar to SRGE in size. It's fun and worth driving to but paying for a flight and hotel is probably too much. Save up for PRGE in Portland, Oregon. It's worth the hotel and airfare.

ComputerSpaceFan Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 As a Vancouverite I can vouch for the fact that PRGE is way more worth the price than VRGE. But ours is fun if you live nearby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+the1hatman Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Are you a professional game convention attendee? Is that a thing? Because that would be a great replacement for my print shop job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you can call the guys who are doing You Tube shows (like Metal Jesus) are professional game convention attendees. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
