Classic Gaming Expo Guests Unveiled

Posted by simoniker on from the no-sign-of-noah's-arcade-owner dept.

Thanks to GamePro for running a new article discussing the recently announced guest list for the Classic Gaming Expo, to be held in Las Vegas on August 9th-10th. Honored guests include Franz Lanzinger (the designer of Crystal Castles), Warren Davis (the creator of Q*Bert), and Howard Scott Warshaw of Yars' Revenge (and E.T.!) fame, alongside more than 40 other classic gaming heroes, plus retro bleep soundtracks from the Micromusic crew. The Intellivision TV Game system we covered a few days ago will also be making its US debut at CGExpo.

    Reminds me of Hubbard, JCL, and all the chip artists who brought about a revolution in gaming music.

    Brings a tear to my eye. Long live the SID6581!
