the Lutece couple<\/a>; mine was a guy in a crappy banana costume. Why would you wear a banana? The real question; why the hell not?<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Also spent some time in the console free play area. We played Boom Blox on the Wii, which is a game produced by Stephen Spielberg (weird, right?) and is tons of fun in 4-player mode. I love that at PAX you can just take some time to get off your feet and just enjoy some games.<\/p>\n
A word on queues; there are lots.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Don’t kid yourself; almost anything worth seeing at PAX you will have to queue for. Be ready for that. Take a phone battery extender case, an iPad, a Nintendo 3DS. Whatever it takes, because you will be waiting in lines.<\/p>\n
Also, take your own food. I paid $9.50 for a godamn hotdog that I waited a half hour for. It was a good dog, but that’s beside the point.<\/p>\n
In the end, we capped off the day with the Xbox One event.<\/p>\n
It was big, loud and felt impressive. There were a few American-esque joke flops (“this goes together like Tim Tams and hot cocoa!” Cue tumble weeds) but I really enjoyed seeing the Kinect 2.0 demos live and in person.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We’ll be back tomorrow, and now we’ve scoped the main floor, hope to check out more panels and events. I also want to play some board games, especially Small World.<\/p>\n
See you there!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Speaking at our Mac panel, checking out the Occulus Rift, Saints Row IV and more.\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":887,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":"","csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}}},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"reckoner_social_message":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/879"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=879"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/879\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/887"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=879"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=879"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=879"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
