So I am new to Pax. I like many others decided to spend nearly $600 for Pax.. when we don't even know what developers will show up!!! Crazy right?? Sure sure, sounds like most people go for the experience of meeting fellow gamers... but until the schedule comes out, I still am curious as to what booths I will be seeing and the inside scoops I get to hear on upcoming games! I did not see a thread that had a Declared attendance list for game developers so if this is already posted please merge.
If you have any to add, please share. List the developer and the game they make with a link/description to where you saw or heard it and what we can expect (new info on game/DLC/free stuff/etc). I will condense them below.
Pax Events Schedule released (http://prime.paxsite.com/schedule.php) but does not show all booths/developers which are listed below-

Not sure what they'll have on the floor, but I'm guessing probably Halo Anniversary, slight chance of Halo 4.

im looking forward to the 2k and bioware appearances
"PAX is going to be kickass for 2K. I'm busy as hell, but it's going to be awesome."
I want to see some Xcom in action! Now that SDCC is over we'll start hearing a little more about PAX plans i'm sure.
2K will be there with Gearbox showing off Borderlands 2!

PS I've been on these forums a lot longer than I've worked for Telltale. This is not shameless marketing.
This is great news thanks for the info. Looking forward to playing this game on PC.
Even if it is shameless marketing, it's part of the reason we're coming, so I want all the inside info before my non-forum posting friends.
This post makes me want to seek you out.

We also just confirmed that stopping by our booth will get you a free copy of Poker Night. I'll also try to grab a stack of them to give out at the Pre-PAX barcrawl.
W00t! I won't be on the bar crawl, but I'll make sure to stop by the booth!
Woo hoo! If I'm sober enough, I'll take a copy of Poker Night. I might even be sober enough to try it out.
Staaaaaarhawk!
Press Release they just sent out a few minutes ago:
Targeted for release via Playstation Network, Xbox Live Arcade, and Steam (for PC and Mac) in early 2012, CS: GO will expand upon the team-based action gameplay that it pioneered when it was launched exactly 12 years ago (CS beta 1, August 1999).
CS: GO features new maps, characters, and weapons and delivers updated versions of the classic CS content (de_dust, etc.). In addition, CS: GO will introduce new gameplay modes, matchmaking, leader boards, and more.
"Counter-Strike took the gaming industry by surprise when the unlikely MOD became the most played online PC action game in the world almost immediately after its release in August 1999," said Doug Lombard, VP of Marketing at Valve. "For the past 12 years, it has continued to be one of the most-played games in the world, headline competitive gaming tournaments and selling over 25 million units worldwide across the franchise. CS: GO promises to expand on CS' award-winning gameplay and deliver it to gamers on the PC as well as the next gen consoles and the Mac."
CS: GO is being developed by Valve in cooperation with Seattle-based Hidden Path Entertainment. The title is targeted for release in early 2012 and will be playable at this year's PAX Prime and London Games Festival.

Ultimate four-player Role-Playing Shooter lootfest anchors trifecta of debuts, including The Darkness™ II and XCOM™
New York, NY – August 15, 2011 – 2K Games announced today that PAX Prime 2011 will serve as the official North American debut for Borderlands™ 2 (Booth #3417), the next breakout four-player co-op hit. Eager fans will be able to catch their first glimpse of the evolution of the Role-Playing Shooter, one of its brand new character classes and the first tidbits of its epic story of revenge and redemption at the show being held at the Washington State Convention Center in Seattle August 26 – 28. This year’s action-packed lineup will also include a playable demo and a panel for The Darkness™ II (Booth #3317), and the continuation of its Citizen Skywatch Alternate Reality Game for XCOM™ (Booth #3417), debuting exclusively during the show.
The Darkness II (Booth #3317)
The Darkness II video game is the sequel to the million unit-selling 2007 title, The Darkness. The title brings a unique new combat mechanic through Quad-Wielding™, which will allow players to slash, grab, and throw objects and enemies with two Demon Arms while simultaneously firing two weapons. The game is layered with thematic elements of dark versus light, steeped in deep and twisted storytelling, and maintains the stylistic violence visualized through a graphic noir technique, true to its comic book origins. The game will be available on February 7, 2012 in North America and February 10, 2012 internationally for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Windows PC.
Panel – Video Games and Comics: A Natural Partnership? – Friday, August 26, 2011, 11:00 a.m., Unicorn Theater
Marc Silvestri, CEO of TopCow and Creator of The Darkness; Sheldon Carter, Creative Director at Digital Extremes; and Ron Davey, lead environmental artist at Digital Extremes will discuss how the blockbuster comic has taken on a new life in video games and the inspirations behind The Darkness II. Ten limited-edition Darkling statues will also be given away to panel attendees.
XCOM (Booth #3417)
Featuring a bold new origin story told from a new perspective, XCOM pits Special Agent William Carter and his team against the threat of human extinction from an insidious otherworldly force. But every enemy is an opportunity – players will strike surgically against the alien menace, capture their technology, and by the science of desperation – turn the invaders’ weapons against them. Armed with these lethal new tools of war, players will command their squad on XCOM’s front lines: Main Street, USA. The game will be available on March 6, 2012 in North America and March 9, 2012 internationally for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Windows PC.
Attendees at PAX will be able to step into Citizen One’s Seattle bunker as he recruits new agents into Citizen SkyWatch to expose the government’s attempts to cover up the unknown threat invading our skies.
Borderlands 2 (Booth #3417)
Currently in development at world-renowned developer Gearbox Software and coming to the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Windows PC during Take-Two’s fiscal year 2013 beginning on April 1, 2012, Borderlands 2 is the ultimate four-player Role-Playing Shooter loot fest. Combining invention and evolution, Borderlands 2 features all new characters, skills, environments, enemies, weapons and equipment, which come together in an ambitiously crafted story. Players will reveal secrets, and escalate mysteries of the Borderlands universe as they adventure across the unexplored new areas of Pandora.
Panel – Inside Gearbox Software – Sunday, August 28, 2011, 3:00 p.m., Pegasus Theatre
Gearbox is back with their yearly panel at PAX Prime! Get a behind-the-scenes look at all the Gearbox Software titles, including Borderlands 2, Duke Nukem Forever® and more. And, what is a Gearbox panel without exclusives, surprises, and of course pizza!

great list cheers for putting that up
Our game is currently in free open beta, and we'd love any feedback/suggestions: http://bit.ly/doPAXlaunch
* enforcers, PM me and I can get you some free boosts to help you check out the game.
Come see us @demo table 5 on the second floor of WSCC with our partner Z-Man games and you can also try your hand at Dungeon Lord (the Board Game)!
Is Devolver Digital on the sponsors list or have they said somewhere that they will be at PAX? I haven't seen it anywhere, maybe I just missed it. If they are then that means they could have Serious Sam 3 here. And I would go totally ape shit! So yeah I'm really curious now, it would really make my day to know that they will be there.
Regardless, I will be totally wearing a DeathSpank/The Baconing t-shirt one of the days I'm at PAX.
Whoops: Noticed that you included Hothead. I asked them on twitter a few weeks back if they'd be at PAX and they said they would not be.
