Gen Con 2005
Convention time again! After Origins in July, be prepared for Gen Con. Bigger, better, bigger…..and er, better! Gencon which takes place in Indiana began yesterday and you can already see amazing setups of various game company booths.
Also, a note of apology to all visitors for a long period of no new posts; we’ve been very busy lately demoing Puerto Rico. It truly is a masterpiece and we can see why it’s #1 on BGG till today. But in the meanwhile check out Gen Con at Gamefest. Don’t wait for me!
