2010 Highlights #3
2010 for me has been a pretty awesome year so counting down from 5 to 1 here’s the top things I’ve done this year.
No. 3 Boston/PAX East
I’m not counting this as a double entry because essentially I was in Boston because of PAX East. If you don’t know what PAX is you should really find out, it’s an amazing 3 day event dedicated to gaming, be it videogames, table top or card based PAX has you covered, it’s also a celebration of all things nerdy and it’s awesome.
I didn’t particularly go to PAX East for the games, although I did get to play a few great games, I went to hang out with some awesome people and I’m glad I got meet so many people I’ve spent so many hours talking to on the net. Sure not everyone was as cool as they were online and there was a level of hero worship for certain online “personalities” that I just don’t get but the amount of awesome people I got to get drunk with far outweighed the few negatives and are memories I’ll keep with me forever.
For a first attempt PAX East was in my opinion a rousing success and if you can you should get down to Boston in March to take part in the festivities, failing that head to the Seattle next September for PAX Prime.
Boston itself is a beautiful city and one that I can see myself returning to in years to come and explore which is something I sadly didn’t do enough of this time around.
