Skipping this year and it looks like everyone else is too with no tickets sold out and the panel schedule being light. I like Excel but they could have used the Tobacco Docks for how little is likely to be there. |

Rodger Reedpop will be annoyed you've all been spelling his name wrong.

Actually Tobacco Dock would have been too big for it, bloody hell this is somehow worse than I thought it would be.

Goodness me that looks depressing. Is this a COVID restriction thing, or just crap on its own?

I imagine virtually no-one in the industry was prepared to do a live event this year so bailed early on and there's nothing to fill the void. Correction - IKEA and TikTok are there.
Er...
I think most people sensibly thought it wasn't going to have much going on and just stayed away, there's no refunds though so if anyone bought a superpass for the whole 4 days I hope they find something else to do for the 3.5 days they've got spare.

That looks like one of those videos that are shot on the day before a show officially opens, i.e. People still setting up and just industry types wandering about. That is actually the opening public day? Oh dear.

I’m sorry. But this looks like refund territory to me.
Wow, Roger must be pissed!

It's sad, looking at the egx tweets, how many people with a "brand" are REALLY EXCITED TO SEE YOU ALL THERE TOMORROW

They could restage the Formula E race that was there with all the space available.

When was the last time they did one of these things outside of London? YEEEEEEARS ago I went to one in Leeds and shot interviews for an entertainment news thingie I was trying to get off the ground at CITV at the time. But since then, I'm not aware of it being held in the North.

I bet everyone is excited to play.... /checks playable games list Biomuntant Desperados. Desperados 3 is on PS Now this month, looking forward to sitting at home trying it rather than spending 25 quid on rail/DLR and an EGX ticket on top. I'll miss out on the Biomuntant version though. |
