For future people, please include info like "game dev" or "vendor" or something like that. I had never heard of Fangamer before so I had to look it up. Please don't assume it's widely known (by me)

Oh, I figured they were known by most PAX goers. My bad!

waterbottles · February 2012

Fangamer is pretty cool; they sell gaming apparel (t-shirts), cool keychains, posters and such.
At East, they usually have a booth by Mega64 and RoosterTeeth, which I really hope happens again, 'cause those are my three favorite booths.

Captain Spaulding II · February 2012

My personal favorite video game store, Game Underground will be there according to the calendar on their site. Will try to get specific confirmation from the owner next time I'm there. These guys sell all the good stuff that gamestop turned their noses up at long ago.

danielofthekings · February 2012

I have a strong feeling that we will see Rockstar Games there for Max Payne 3, and Gearbox for Boarderlands 2, I hope that Red 5 comes back to show more of Firefall!

Ah yes, because after Prime, all I could think was that PAX needed MORE Firefall. Their booth was quite difficult to find.

Scorpius · February 2012

Pandemonium Books and Games confirmed their presence via email. They will be demo-ing many board and card games. http://www.pandemoniumbooks.com/

danielofthekings · March 2012

tpm1222 · March 2012

I will be attending my 1st PAX this April in Boston and i wanted to know what games are most likely going to be there. We all know Playstation will have a ton of Vita stuff there. And we can only think Nintendo will have Wii U things there. But what games do you really expect to be there?

Elferton · March 2012

Fingers crossed for the Super Dungeon Explore expansion!

repete · March 2012

The Behemoth said they would be there

rchapoteau · March 2012

Just wanted to see if Diablo 3 was going to be on the floor. Here's to hoping :-)

kropotkin · March 2012

Blizzard have had a presence at PAX before, so it's not beyond the realms of possibility. I seem to remember them being there at PAX 2009. I know this as that is when I played Diablo 3 for the first time. Or was that 2010, hmm, I can't remember...

zerzhul · March 2012

OP is updated.

goodtimeshaxor · March 2012

You can assume they will not be there. I have reliable sources

Penny Arcade
