Chris Jones from old the Tex Murphy series, a bunch of the people from Sierra who created a ton of the classic games plus other people will be there too. I think I'm going to go. http://adventuregamingexpo.malinche.net/

The first time it was called off, so I hope this one doesn't suffer the same fate.

They need X amount of pre-registrations from people who will attend to cover the costs. If they dont, then it will most likely be canceled... again. it sounds like a fund raiser for people who haven't made any games in over 10 years. I bet it will bomb. That's only because those that are making games right now won't commit to it. Those ex-developers of AGs who are going to attend are probably doing just fine and don't need to do this.

I would love to attend one of these (I usually try to make it to the Origins convention down in Columbus every year) so one structured strictly around AGs would be fun. Too many reasons not to jump on it though. :-/

Maum Private Detective Posts : 593 Joined: 2 JUN 2007 Location: UK Status : Offline	Damn I used to live there!! I didn't even know Origins did a convention, my first proper game was Ultima V and my fave to this day is probably Ultima VII. So many fond memories... Anyone knows how to get Ultima VIII to work with XP by the way? Currently playing: Dragon Age Origins, Dishonored, The Witcher, Fallout 3, Deponia
