    OMG it is art! This is the most visually pleasing exhibit floor map that I have ever seen.
    Even CES' booth maps are black and white and hard to read.

    Pretty.

    Kind of disappointing that Nintendo only has the one booth while Sony has 4. Confused as to why the Kinect has a separate booth and why there's a Microsoft booth separate from the rest of the Microsoft area. Also, yey Valve!

    also, nintendo only needs one booth to show off how awesome they are, and everyone will be lining up to play 3DS no matter HOW big their booth is ;)

    also, I think the multiple Microsoft booths and multiple sony booths are just reserved under those companies, and it might be their other publishers there.

    like, if valve had 2 areas, one might be for Half life 2 E3 (yeah right) and annother for Portal 2, but both would say VALVE

    also, where they heck is my blizzard at?

    but blizzcon isn't conviniently 20 minutes from my house, and within my price range, and (relatively) easy to get tickets for.

    OMG Valve! It looks like they have a slightly larger booth than last year... yeah that's right, I'm looking at last year's map also. I'm really pumped that the exhibition hall expanded into last years queue space. I'm sensing EPIC WIN in the near future.

    For those wondering about entrances: based on what I know from last year and the changes made to the expo hall, there are three entrances, all on the right-side map.

    The first is on the left side, right under the sky bridge.

    The second is right above the "Level 4" block, which heads to the main escalators.

    The last is at the very bottom, which exits right next to the queue room.

    Hopefully that entrance gets lots of traffic, since my company's booth is one of the first things through that door. Eyyy :^: :^:

    My first PAX in 08 I remember very clearly being elbowed and shoved by WoW players logging in to their characters on the demo machines while trying to get my first look at Aion. Last year I remember the looming Starcraft II booth dominating the lefthand side of the expo hall when you came in the main entrance. They have been here, that's why it's odd that they're not this time.

    Yeah Blizzard was pretty big at PAX last year, with SC II, D3, and WotLK all playable. The lead designer of Diablo 3 has said that they have "very big news" planned for Blizzcon this year, so maybe that's why, I don't know. I wanted to play some Diablo 3 this year but it's not really a big loss for me.
