So listen to reet. Last weekend I went to EGX with my partner Daft Connor.he just wants to play Sonic Frontier Because he’s stupid, keep an eye out for an upcoming video preview and some hands-on impressions of other things we’ve seen, like Goat Simulator 3 you’ve heard of, and Shadow of Doubt you haven’t.
We caught up with Eurogamer’s Zoe and Ian to ask what games they’re playing, while Mike Channell from Outside Xbox gave us a glimpse into the decadent lifestyle that YouTube Cash offers him. It was like an episode of MTV Cribs, except we were standing on the balcony of the East London Convention Centre and the only luxury offered was a stack of Diet Coke cans in the mini fridge, and he didn’t let us have one.
We spoke with one of the developers of House Flipper 2 and confirmed that you don’t need to play the first one to see what’s going on. Soon after, we also confirmed that security wanted us to leave the House Flipper 2 booth. But Connor showed them his gold wristband, and we panicked when they learned that we were getting paid work with the event organizers.
EGX is as good as ever, not just because of the games in the showroom, but also because of all the live events like Oxventure, the EGX bar quiz, and of course (best of all) iGamesNews’s Best Games Ever Podcast Live, I’m more reliable than the audience. There were so many people on the stage that it broke expectations.
listen. Dom, is that enough? I’m exhausted. You know how hard it is to type when you can’t sit in a chair because of someone else’s elbow and your claws are made of felt?
EGX will be back next year!
