| The doors opened for the Media a full two hours before the general public and the rush was on to play a Demo of Fallout 3. Three hours before this, Bethesda, developer of the game, had sent out three gameplay videos to grease the wheels and get everyone lathered up. It worked, and I promptly went the opposite way. | | I was rewarded when I wandered into the Turbine booth and received the first look (of anyone ever, according to the developers) of Lord of the Rings Online - Moria. It was stunning and really made me wish I had invested my time in leveling up a character in LOTRO. I may just take advantage of the 14-Day VIP Trial cards they gave me yet!
The next hour or two were a big blur as I shuffled from one booth to the next. In the process I was scolded for accidentally (really I didn't know!!!) viewing the opening sequence of Fallout 3. Stunning. I had a chance to talk with the EVE folks, Red vs. Blue and many more. I'll get more detailed tomorrow and Sunday on those two. I spent most of the time today playing games yet to be released, people watching, and gathering swag, figurines, free demo cards and other exclusive items (some very exclusive) to be given away over the next days, weeks and months.
That brings me to our first giveaway! Tabula Rasa is a stunning game with a great user base. The folks at NCSOFT were kind enough to give us a heap of Tokens, Dog Tags and even a couple of T-Shirts. If you're interested in getting some of this gear, simply post your reply in this thread. Late next week we'll randomly draw numbers and post the winners. Stay tuned for more swag, demos and trial cards (we have a boatload) from other games throughout the weekend.
