Day one of UK Games Expo, front desk style...
First impressions, more people than last year? Absolutely, easily up fifty percent on where we were last year, the games are selling out and the games library was nearly empty by just past eleven with all the people wanting to go play things. A lot more people and interestingly enough, a lot more nationalities as well, particular the americans and the germans, all of whom are starting to pay attention to the convention. A lot of things going on tomorrow, a lot of announcements for new games that I can't talk about yet, but there's going to be lots to put on for tomorrow.
One problem...
If we get fifty percent more on things from last year tomorrow, then we're going to need a bigger venue...
What's near the Hilton Metropole that might be useful....?
Didn't get off the desk today, spent the whole time getting people in and getting people around, getting people into games and helping them to have a good time (most didn't need the help...)
Tomorrow then...
Tomorrow the gates really open...
And it's likely my post will be late, if present at all....
This is John Dodd, Still on top of the gaming world, and Goodnight England, Wherever you are....
