As July slowly begins to fade from our calendars, August begins creeping in, and that can only mean one thing for table top gamers everywhere, GENCON!
For the uninitiated, Gencon is one of the largest gaming conventions in the US. Last year, there were 30,000 attendees. Gencon has been a Mecca of sorts for table top gamers looking for new games, or a place to join with friends and play out long campaigns. Table top isn't all that's there, though. Console and PC gaming has made its presence known in the hall and events, along with various levels of Live Action Role Play, anime, music, costumes, and more geek gear than you could ever dream about.
Gencon needs to be experienced, but for those who can't make it, Video, Gaming at 30 will be reporting from the floor this year as official press, getting one on one interviews with creators and designers. We'll be looking for the best, the weirdest, and the most fun ways you can have fun with your dining room table this year, taking pictures and posting them right here on the blog. So check in with us to see what's the scoop on the show floor!
Excited yet? We sure are. Before we start posting this year's articles, we're going to look back and reflect on last year. Here's our articles to help get you ready!
