In preparing for the Winnebago that is Comic-Con this weekend, we are donning our respective Geek Armor and getting pumped up while talking about the other upcoming conventions Blizzcon and Penny Arcade Expo. More info has come out recently about TerraDrive - a LARP/Paper Roleplaying game that will be debuting at PAX and we discuss our first impressions, a little bit of the WoW talk sneaks in under the guise of pre-Blizzcon speculation, and much reminiscing is done about Comic Con past and future (future reminiscing? - yes) and what it means to gamers in a post-E3 world. We wrap it up with some discussion of masters of marketing like Pokemon, constantly showing us how it’s done, and some frank statistics on in-game advertisements now that the science is coming of age. Also we say “Chocolate Rain” a lot.

Zug has had a tradition - nay a ritual - of beginning every hotel-stay-period related to a convention or conference with the placement of his own unique gargoyle by the entranceway of the room in question - usually affixed to a mirror using specially designed hotel-mirror-optimized suction cups. This gargoyle has, as far as I am aware, always taken the form of Pikachu the destroyer (”Raaaaaaayyyyy….”) with proper SARS protection befitting such a heavy responsibility. This year we also had pokeballs with flying pikachus and even a full sized live-in Mudkip (yes you heard correctly that we like them).
You can see the gargoyle in the background.

Pokemon is awesome. The new pokemon has mad skills, and Oizys gives a run down of some of it’s new and awesome features. May Day, Loyalty Day, Riots, Gargoyles from Snowcrash, it’s all here; we discuss both community-driven content games, and doing ‘community service’ in game design, making people do tedious things and make a game out of it.
