 Hi everyone,

Just saw some videos on youtube about PAX east 2013 etc..., and as a european living a loooooong way from Boston, wanted to ask if going to PAX east is worth it.. and since most of you here are from North America..

Is it a fun event to attend to ?

Does it take the 3 days to fully enjoy it or it can be easily seen in 1 day?


What do you do mostly there? I see some videos of conferences and such but in the meantime whats to be done?


Cheers! :happy:

I might do this during a gap year so I'll be watching this thread.

Also a question, how much is recommended to bring? Food, hotel and buying gifts from these gaming conventions?

I have no idea....

I´m also thinking about going there next year, thing is (for me) its 500€ + on plane tickets


Adding:

Food (~) 100€ day

Hotel, not sure about this never been to the US... probably (~)150 - 200 € day?

Some pocket money to buy stuff

and tickets (35$ single day or 75$ all 3 days, i believe)


(also from what I seen Boston is cold and rainy  so no beach or good sightseeing weather

So i got to think if its really worth it ..

One year i wish i could go was 2 years ago when they had a Skyrim food truck and served Solitude Sweetrolls, Whiterun Corn i think it was, and they had giant turkey legs called Dragon Legs

I'd love to go honestly

Keep in mind there is also PAX Prime in Seattle in September, and PAX Australia.

It was a blast, but it really depends on what you make of it. If you go early, you can probably catch MOST of the games you want to see in a single day, if that's all you do. But if that's all you do, then you're missing out on some great panels.

I went all 3 days to PAX Prime last year, and didn't make it to everything I wanted. I did see almost all the games I wanted to (Borderlands 2 line was ridiculous, and I figured I could wait the 2 weeks for the launch, and Xcom Enemy Unknown, because I thought it was the OTHER Xcom). I had to choose between panels, however, and didn't get to spend much time in the indie arcade.

Don't they do gadget shows and showing off new technology?
