How do you nab these cards? Simple: Go play some games. We’re not revealing which booths or events will be giving them away, but you’ll find out just by exploring the show floor (or by asking for a little help from fellow attendees). As for tracking down those rare cards, you’ll have to figure that out on your own as well. Just make sure to look in your gift bag for a free tuckbox to store your new deck in!
But there’s another, secret layer to this collectible game that we can’t reveal just yet. Let’s just say that you’ll want to poke your head in every corner of the Moscone West hall to unearth more precious collectibles. Stay tuned for more details.
Please note: All PlayStation Collectible Cards are in limited supply. Once they’re gone, they’re gone

Details still to be confirmed. Will be Saturday evening.
Tentative location: Golden Gate Taproom 10:30pm ish.
The convention ends at 10pm and will likely be a concert again. We can group up as the hall closes somewhere on site(for those who won't need to make a pit stop at their hotel first) then walk over.
*Location and time subject to change*
We'll meet up somewhere close to the convention center, have a drink(with our without alcohol, we don't judge here) or eat and talk about all the megatons announced at the keynote(Half Life 3 Vita Exclusive, Crash 4 Playstation VR exclusive, Lee Carvallo in Hot Shots PS4 etc), and what we played on the show floor.
If you haven't been to a NeoGAF meetup before, you should come. We always have a good time. Don't be shy, we won't bite.
Last years Alumni:
Xenorevlis has graciously decided to provide us with Official NeoGAF Meetup Lanyards for all who attend:
If you plan on attending, sign up here(quote to see link)
Sign up list so far(quote to see link):
Note: The deadline to sign up and receive a lanyard is Thursday November 26th(Thanksgiving). You can still come to the meetup without signing up for it(or signing up late), but signups after Nov 26th may not get a lanyard.
I have a Line group started as well. Join it to keep up to date on meetup related happenings. If we end up having a last minute venue change or you are having trouble finding us etc. I'll try and keep updating the thread but I think the Line app will work better.

-Snacks and Water. You're going to be waiting in line a lot to get into your favorite panels and to try the lateset games. It always helps to have snacks and beverages so you don't have to decide between waiting in line for food or going to another panel/playing another game.
-Handheld game systems. Bring your Vita and play some games with your fellow Playstation fans while in line.
-Something to sit on. The floor can be hard on the old backside. Bring a cushon with you, or for elite level line waiting, bring a slacker stool.
-A easy to carry bag. You're going to need it for all the above, plus the swag you'll get. Don't go overboard though as you will have to carry everything with you all day. You're not backpacking across Europe. Some people bring poster tubes to keep posters they acquire in good condition.
-Your cellphone battery will not last. Conventions are murder on your battery. I strongly recommend investing in a external battery pack of some kind.
-How long should you wait in line for a panel? No idea, this convention is brand new. I'd get in line early for the keynote. Everything else? 30 minutes will probably suffice if PAX is any indication. But again, new event so hard to say.
-Get your sleep. you probably don't need the full 8 hours, but you don't want to be getting back to your hotel room at 4am and then waking up at 7 so you can be near the front of the line for when the convention center opens at 10am the next day.
-You might not be able to see/do everything. Pick your priorities and wait it out.
-Go to the GAF meetup/other meetups. My favorite part of conventions is meeting people I've been chatting online with for years. If you take the chance and do it, It'll become yours too. Doesn't have to be GAF. Are you part of a subreddit that is having a meetup at the convention? a Playstaiton Fansite etc? Consider attending them.
-Have Fun
And We'd get more events and more info. Just relying on e3 is retarded.
