Next gaming expo

[Pouakai]

Anyone know what the next gaming expo is? I know that the release date pushes the release until after E3, so we might get something there, but I'd say there'll be something else

Huzzah, portland, ME in mid May
PrezCon, Charlottesville, VA the Labor Day W.E.
UB Con, Buffallo, NY in April
NJ Con, Edison, NJ in June
AnCon, Hudson, OH in June
GamesDay, Los Angeles, CA in May
E3, Los Angeles, CA (June 5-7, 2012)

So of those how many would be big enough for 2K to send stuff?

 

[Liex]

I do hope they reveal the 9th civ before E3...

 

[Louis XXIV]

Although E3 makes a good deal of sense.

 

[Kimuyama]

Are there anything not in america?

 

[Pouakai]

Yeah, but it's more likely Firaxis & 2K would stay domestic

 

[Nyanko]

Yeah, but it's more likely Firaxis & 2K would stay domestic

No way 2K wouldn't stop by the bigger European conventions, paticularly since 4 of the expansion civs are European.

GamesCom is sadly a bit too late :/.

I really hope we can get some new info before the next convention. The wait is killing meeeee.

 

[Rob (R8XFT)]

Isn't the HQ of 2K games in California? The Gamesday convention in LA might be quite nearby and a possibility.

 

[Camikaze]

Yes, though the HQ of Firaxis is in Maryland.

Elizabeth Tobey tweeted today that they still didn't know what their E3 line-up is - so they're going to E3. Hope to find out more info before that though!

 

[Pouakai]

Awesome, thanks for the update. We're also supposed to be getting new info via Twitter, Facebook and the forums over the coming weeks

 

[BobDole]

I think most new info won't be at conventions, but through updates online from Firaxis. Probably will be some features on the Civilization V website, which would be good since it never ever gets updated (they really gotta work on that).
Besides, the only major reveals left will probably be the 9th Civ and the tech tree. The rest of the stuff isn't that important really. New Units, UU/UB/UI, every single little detail about religion/espionage/whatever, not too important at this point. Besides, we know a lot already.

 

[Louis XXIV]

They'll probably have an IGN article or something revealing all the civs and their stuff.

No need to wait:

Squeeeee!!!

 

[Pouakai]

Awesome, can't wait! Hoping it's a good one...

The biggest conventions for us are typically PAX East, E3, Gamescom, and PAX Prime.

That's not to say they're the only conventions we ever do, but those are the big ones.

Last year when we were promoting The Darkness II we also went to Comic-Con (in San Diego) and New York Comic-Con
