Outside of gaming, there’s cosplay, live eSports, a massive LAN and well, these AAA companies. For the true creatives stuck in the rote cycle of work, beer and sleep, there’s the Artists Alley. This is where the cosplay, photography and student game developers will meet to massage their creative juices. And then there’s the games. Expect the best of the best, and utter shit as well. Gaming karma they call it.
There’s a metric ton of crap to sift through but don’t worry your pretty little head over it. Gearburn’s on the case.
