I understand the price issue but look at the value. You get three days of 24 hour gaming for only $30-$40. You also get to attend two concerts for free included in that pass. So look at it as $10 a day. What convention costs less than $10 a day? If there are any other concerns please feel free to contact us, this convention it for the gaming audience in New England and we want to make it as good as possible.
