Surprise: I'm going with Pretend3r, Sunday 22nd. Yes, that's right. Well, if everything goes according to plan.
I'll wear my super sexy PS shirt.

Sweet!  I hope you have a good time.  This is starting to remind me of the Brett Favre saga.  Americans should know what I mean.   :)

I love Brett Favre though.  It's the media that tries to make him a villain.  Funny thing is Favre doesn't give a shit about the media-probably why they want to villainize him.

But on topic that's super awesome and I hope you have some super awesome stuff to show your super awesome followers/community.

Hahah I love when they are like, "This will be Farve's third retirement in the last 3 years."

What happened? I mean what changed?

They went by car, which saves like two times 60 euro's on a High Speed train ticket to Köln.

But doesn't that take, alot more time to get there?

Back. Watched a different (semi-extended) Portal 2 trailer (= awesome), Crysis 2 in 3D (trailer and projected game. PCs for hands-on were occupied and didn't want to play 360-version), realtime demo of Homefront (bit like HL2, linear and scripted, but pretty cool), played some F1 2010 (I apparently suck at it) and I guess that's it.

Can't believe I missed the Brink booth :(

Damn.  I really want to know how the PC version is of Crysis 2.  It's the first time I've ever been conflicted over what platform to buy a game on.

Rumors said the XBOX360 couldn't handle the power of Crysis 2 engine and they had to strip it down for the consoles.

I played Portal when it came with the Orange Box.  It was really fun.  I have been watching Portal 2, and I think I might buy it for PC.  Great game.

I don't care too much for the graphics.  I mean, it's not like my PC can handle a real sequel to Crysis 1 but it looks decidedly worse than its predecessor so far, which is unusual.  Some people will be pissed about the visuals even though it still looks fantastic. 

The real problem is what they did to the game structure itself, not the graphics.  Obviously it's more of a corridor crawler now.  Wtf.  Obviously, the physics system doesn't look as robust as the previous game.  Wtf.

This is why I want to see the PC version.  I want to be able to pick up random shit and throw it at people like in the first game, I want to be able to choose my path like in the first game, and I want to be able to bring down buildings like in the first game.  So far all I've seen is a linear game w/ a semi-static environment and the ability to "kick" objects, not pick them up.  And I swear to God if it doesn't let you literally pick enemies up by the throat then I will not buy the game.  I will refuse.
