I'm only about an hour away now, so I really want to go. Does anyone have any experience with the $50 Exhibits Plus pass?

Popeye9

Gonna try and go since the studio I am at is only about 6 blocks from the venue

CrazyButcher basically everything you've linked can be found via self shadow blog :P. Also unity's the blacksmith presentation is worth mentioning. Other articles and breakdown available on unity's blog.

Was a good event, feels like its shrinking though. Not seeing Autodesk or Pixologic demoing at their own booth felt very strange.

Speaking of the Order 1886... there was a bit of love over at the Foundry booth.

How Ready at Dawn made one of the most visually impressive titles to date while doing games for Vita previously is simply astounding. And man that weapon texture at 16:10
