  1. I made it out - I got to meet Inky and Dauber, and i got to play a round of Atari 5200 Kaboom!. I really liked the twist of having one player play the bomber and the other play the bucket. :)

     

    I liked the new venue, but it was really hard to find the panels on time. Having it split over two floors made it tough to navigate. I also felt that there wasn't good food options on site. We found a mall food court a block or two away, but it didn't have a very good selection either.

     

    The new vendor hall was great. Everyone had a lot of space, but I did hear a couple of vendors complain about how their loading and unloading was disorganized and difficult.

     

    The pinball room and museum were combined and I liked the new layout a lot.

     

    The arcades were hard to navigate on Saturday - it would be nice if galloping ghost could find a better way to layout their room. Brian Colin's table was in an awkward place and it was hard to get through to play the games.

     

    I loved the indie developer room - I really liked being able to talk to the developers and get the inside story on their games.

     

    Overall it was a lot of fun and I like the new venue. I'm glad that I took the mega bus instead of driving myself.

    you took mega bus, that was my way of getting there in the past, I noticed center is less then a mile from the amtrak station where they drop you off

    the only problem I have with mega bus is the odd schedule they have. the other thing about megabus you have to book at least 45 days ahead of time to get the 1.00 rate.

    if my buddy don't drive me next year I am considering taking mega bus next year if its at the center.
