Yesterday saw the launch of The London Eurogamer Expo and one of our Admin Team was at the event

First off i want to sorry for the quaitly of the photos but my camera decided to pack up and i had to use my mobile .

The event was being held at The Old Billingsgate Building which is just down the River Thames from London Bridge.

 

 

The doors opened at 11.00am and after some superb service from our beloved Rail Network i arrived at 11.15am and nothing had prepared me for what i was about to face as i turned the corner to head to the venue

 

 

I had to play a game of human snake ( an old mobile game for those who dont know lol ) for 45 minutes before i reached the front doors and put on my wrist band. What i then saw was amazing !!

The venue was split over 3 floors which the main bulk of games being on the ground floor and the second floor was for the recuitment people and the PSP GO CAFE and the basement was 18+ games and the Beatles Rock Band Stage.

 

My first port of call was by order of my daughter and was the PSP GO CAFE as i had recieved an e-mail from the Dev Team of MEDIA MOLECULE who are behind the release of Little Big Planet on the PSP GO and i had to hand over a picture of SackBoy she had drawn to get one of their " limited edition paper bags containing awesome goodies " i also had to say a magic word and give a wink while handing the picture over !!!!!! 

The bags had been limited to 100 an i got one !  What was in the bag i hear you ask well here is a list of the awesome content

1 x Lollypop

2 x boiled sweets

1 x fun size twix

3 x small stickers

2 x badges

WOW i hear you all say !!!! I can print what i said lol

 

 

After doing the dad thing the venue was mine and i was like a kid in a sweet shop where to go, what to play !!

I started of on the new super mario bros wii and it s one i will be getting when it comes outs as it is and old skool mario with the advantage of the gameplay and graphic of the wii. You will also be able to play 4 players at once so great for the family to play with the winter nights drawing in .

 

 

I then waited in line to get my hands on Uncharted 2 and i will say i miss my PS3 now Cry It has been said by our members that this game is awesome and i can confirm IT IS . The gameplay is like nothing i have seen before and it was one of the busiest areas throught out the day only one area was more popular and it was ............... MAG yet another PS3 title. This area was always 5 deep to get a go so i had to miss out on this one .

 

Another game that impressed me was GOD OF WAR 3 yes i know PS3 !!!!! and again i didnt get a chance to play but i must of spent 20 minutes just watching the gore on the screen and when he ripped off a head and then used it as i torch i did chuckle.

 

Other games which were on show and i got to play was

Assassin`s Creed 2

Mass Effect 2

Lost Planet 2

Avatar

Rogue Warrior

Left 4 Dead 2

Bad Company 2

Ratchet & Clank 2

 

Then at around 4pm it was annonuced that a surprise guest was going to show up at the New Super Mario Bros Wii stand and it turned out to be Mr Charles Martinet !! WHO ????? to look at he just seemed like a normal guy but once he spoke it was clear Mr Charles Martinet was the Voice of Mario !!!  What a great job lol

By 5pm i was all gamed out and decided to make the long trip back home and to inform the missus that there is now a number of games i want as well as a PS3 back lol ( She isnt happy either )

So i hope you enjoyed to boosting about my day of gaming and i will be returning next year for the next Expo so look out for this in the new year !!!
