Gen Con To Take the Place of E3?
Venues like PAX, Tokyo Game Show, and GDC are taking stock in the wake of E3's 'demise', and coming to terms with what this will mean next year. Gamasutra reports that another trade show is stepping up the the plate: Gen Con. From the article: "In order to better accommodate the video game business into its existing shows, Gen Con organizers plan to expand its venue space at the Indianapolis show in 2007. An additional 43,000 square feet will be added to the exhibit hall with additional space expanding into area hotels as well to accommodate the thousands of games taking place over the four-day event. In addition, Gen Con So Cal, the companies' show traditionally held in Anaheim, will be moved to the Los Angeles Convention Center, the former site of the annual E3 trade show, for an unspecified 2007 date, and will attempt to attract further video game companies to exhibit alongside the traditional paper-gaming and CCG Gen Con stalwarts. 'When the news came out about the drastic changes at E3, we began to hear from some industry players about Gen Con increasing its capabilities to better accommodate the industry,' said Peter Adkison, CEO of Gen Con, LLC." This is truly surreal.
Whose OS would you use: Several American accounting college dropouts' or a Finnish computer science college graduate's?
Stop acting like Linus created anything. He STOLE the OS and put his own name to it. The men who actually CREATED the OS were veteran programmers before Linus was a thought in someone's head. And what fucking difference does it make where they were born? Do you deserve a label on your life because of your birthplace? Maybe we should do that for your race and sex too... you got a major stick up your ass.
Will you Linux fags get over this FACT?
As for booth "babes"? Man, you go an internet connection, if you're that desperate for titties there's a million sites. Now, go back to beating off to the pictures of women wearing bras in the K-Mart circular.
