Yes, YES, the Penny Arcade and Games Expo is upon us for the year 2012 and the city of Boston is about to be over taken by copious amounts of nerds, fan boys, and top leading industry folks.
John (Gamester81) and I will be attending PAX East this year, and we plan on giving you tons of exclusive content including interviews, sneak peaks at upcoming games, and of course…the merch! So be sure to check back throughout this Thursday night until Monday night (April 5th-9th) as we will be bringing you tons of fantastic content throughout the day, exclusive pick up’s, coverage, and much much more.
Also, we will be heading up to the worlds largest classic arcade, Funspot in Laconia, New Hampshire on Monday after PAX East if you’re interested in meeting up with us and you live in that area. So be sure to be there around afternoon time on Monday April 9th and we will see you there!
Also, don’t be shy…come up and say hi to us! We love talking with people about the same passion that we have…video games!
In addition we will be joined by many more in the YouTube gaming community, including Pete Dorr of All Gen Gamers and YouTube fame, so be sure to visit Pete’s YouTube channel for exclusive PAX East related content as well. On this coming Friday the 6th at 3:00pm Central there will be a YouTube meetup in the main entrance area of the Boston Convention Center, so if you have time, and you’re attending PAX East, come by and say “hi”.

Hailing from the mighty mighty east coast, Eric has spent the majority of his life being a passionate and devoted gamer.
From the 80's all the way up to today, Eric has played countless games over the years for various systems, all the while never truly becoming the dreaded "fan boy" of a particular console.
Eric currently works for a video game magazine and a local news station and spends the majority of his free hours gaming and reading/researching into various things on gaming culture, news, events and so much more.
Eric is also known under his two names, NightOfTheLiving8Bit and ER1C OF WAR and you can find him creeping the dark and dank places of local flea markets in search for lost treasure or kicking back at home enjoying his favorite new or old school games, while always looking into new ways to help innovate the gaming community as a whole.
If Gamester 81 was Yoda, Eric would be his Luke Skywalker when it comes to gaming knowledge and he looks forward to bringing you the best
of the current world of gaming and generations past!
