i dont blame them in the first place, but no convention company in west germany gave video games a chance and after the success, that the games convention is, they want their piece of the pie. and since most german arms form big companies are located in that area, it was easier to move the convention to cologne. afterall they are only reaping the fruits...
and btw. cologne is a butt ugly city .)
ram said:
how can cologne be ugly compared to leipzig? Like most of the other East cities Leipzig feels like you are in a total different country because it looks so poor. Cologne is a great choice because they have a huge airport and a lot of good hotels because it is a city for tourists. Besides the nightlife in cologne is pretty tight.

I would really like to go to GC, but not in Leipzig.. I would prefer some West German-city.

Looking forward to new Banjo info.
banKai said:
Yeah, and that's actually a big problem for both conventions. This is exactly how you kill Germany as a carefully built-up and established location for a big games expo in the long term. Eurogamer Expo in London is already announced, and if they'll really have two half-assed conventions next year in Germany, I can see a movement of the industry towards the UK as a location.
However, I can understand that the Leipzig persons in charge refuse to give up. Nevertheless it's the wrong decision for the industry because the geographical position of Cologne is just better for almost everyone.

Images, yes. Videos next week.
Without appointments, there is really nothing to do in the business center. Well in the days of public visitors, the business center has a much softer noise level. So if you need to rest, go there.
Normally the business visitor badge or the press pass should be sufficient. Well in 2006 there was some kind of registration going on, so I had to sneak in. Anyway Sony's buffet is really delicious.

Just Cause 2 looks amazing in screens. I cannot believe a few of the screens I saw are in game. Can't wait for a video.

last try: not even after the sony PK for like 15 minutes?
if not, then ill just drop by to where you mentioned before Jethro said:
ah yeah, right.. last year they had a list of names but I think there were some uninvited people too ^^ but as I said, I have the darksiders presentation.
I should have like enough free time before the sony PK to take a picture of the place it will be held so that we can arrange a meeting place somewhere there? so that everyone really knows where to go to?
That's about the worst time of all, since I'll be scrambling to the press room to put all the interesting footage of the conference online asapbanKai said:last try: not even after the sony PK for like 15 minutes?

Holy crap Tomb Raider looks good. Will be checking this out! I'm dissapointed that Blim won't be at the show on Sat. Have to give thanks for helming such a great site for videos!
