Cheers Pais I can't afford it arm but if I can't get the tickets I'll see if the missus will lend me the money

Great Weekend all round and would be great to get aload of us down for next year.

My round up of the games I remember playing

Black Ops 2 - Same old shit, nothing new apart from maybe a few new guns but just reminded me of the first.

Halo 4 - Enjoyed playing it seemed like Halo 3 again and seemed to play loads better than Reach

PES 2013 - Played a game against Carl and we made ourselves look idiots on it, buttons all different

New Gears - Awesome !!! That good we queued up again tho play it, there was like an attack and defend mode where you had to defend the generator. Definetley getting it

New Aliens - Really fun game could have a great laugh on line with it.

Hitman - Terrible game I could not get the hang of it at all.


It made a real difference getting the early bird ticket for the Sunday, you get that extra hour than everyone else and there is hardly a queue. We went straight to BLOP 2 on the Sunday and only queued for around 20 minutes, I think the rest of the time it was an hour and a half waiting time if I remember rightly.

Went to the after show part at night and got a free man bag and T-Shirt but we had all had a few beers and forgot them.

Definetly booking for next year and the Ibis over the road is a great location

I got my man bag and extra tight t-shirt. Really good if,in my case,short time. Good to meet those that were there. Must thank Tom for the 2 free pints will have to buy a couple for ya sometime.

Really impressed with the new Gears mode (OUTRUN?). Basicaly Horde and Beast mixed together. Can see it being a great laugh.

Did Bal and Carl sort out their sleeping arrangements in the end? Was it top n tails,back to back or spoons .

Will defo do it longer next year,maybe we could sort something sooner aswell.

Haha pais! I decided to kip on the bathroom floor for half the night haha

Do both days next time and stay at the ibis!!!

PES was awful, we failed big time Chris!

Really did enjoy gears and halo though!!

Also ninja heating up during grid and need for speed lol

Great weekend, jumped on loads of games, although its difficult to really pick a game that stood out. Gears obviously, and Aliens: Colonial Marines was pretty decent.

For all PS3 users, the new God of War was fucking awesome, Kratos is simply a legend.

COD was same old shit and hasn't convinced me to buy it let alone jump back into the multiplayer.

Will defo be booking this up as early as possible for next year, as Ninja put it on Friday, it's an annual pilgrimage down to EG

my top 5 were in no particular order

Gears - that new mode seems absolutely brilliant, will be a must buy in march

Aliens - took me a couple of minutes to get into it but i really enjoyed it in the end, going to be some good coop fun there

Forza Horizon - As a complete n00b at racing games I actually quite enjoyed it, It reminded me of the last racing game I played (Burnout 1) and I may well look at picking this up

Far Cry 3 - Well I had never played a FC before and I thoroughly enjoyed it, will be a cracking coop game for me and a must buy aswell

Halo - it looked immense, simple as

This years Eurogamer could be the last one at Earls Court as they are thinking of demolishing it. There is a petition online somewhere to save it

next 1 is at the winter gardens morecambe THE VEGAS OF THE NORTH.

Yep. Earls Court is being demolished to make way for 7,500 homes.

But ,according, to Eurogamer.net the Eurogamer Expo will still be held there next year 26th-29th September. Tix normally go on sale around Feb/March time. I will defo be booking early and getting a room this time. Spent more time traveling than i did attending this year.

im there aswell as soon as they come out
