As all PAX veterans know, unless you get to PAX hella early there will be lines the size of Gabes and Tychos Bank Vault (which i assure you is quite large). Now, last year the place was like a friggin DS orgy, and some quality titles have come out since. Mario Kart is the most obvious choice, but Im thinking some Metroid Prime Pinball/ Hunters, Elite Beat Agents, Custom Robo Arena, Pokemon?, New Mario,Tetris, Jump Ultimate Stars (lolz) and some meteos. I'm gonna blow up the whole world if i dont get some playing time on each there! (if you plan on bringing Ultimate Stars, for the love of god let me know!)

Of course, I wouldn't expect anyone to bring games for an N-Gage or PSP! I kid the Sony and Nokia!

    Is EBA multiplayer? If so, I have no choice but to get it before PAX.
    A bunch of people were playing Jump Ultimate (?) and Bleach last year. is the multiplayer in those pretty good?

    Oh, and let's not repeat last year's incident of playing Frogger. :?

    And I don't mean on a portable gaming device, no.

    This thread reminds me, I gotta stock up on some DS multiplayer games. I haven't bought any in a long time. And we've only got... 6 months to prepare. Stupid August, being so far away.

    don't forget crack. the drug, not a game. really helps pass time. there's also the traditional greatest penis artist on pictochat.

    seriously now, last year, i managed to win a ds and star fox at the trivia show, about 2 weeks before the game came out, so it was pretty cool to play that with everyone during some of the lines, even if the multiplayer in it was kinda weak.

    Magic, defiantly Magic the Gathering. With enough cards that complete strangers can play with me. The whole DS thing is cool, but you don't get a chance to talk with the person face to face. I enjoy the tactile pleasure of seeing the person cry when I beat them, there no beating it :).

    I also plan on seeing what kind of naughty pictures and videos I can pull off of other people's cell phones via bluetooth. That’s always fun.

    I'd bring a magic deck, but there's going to be so much other stuff going on that there's no real point. Also, I stopped at the end of the Mirrodin block so i'm a little outdated. ;)

    Also, bluetooth stealth isn't something I considered before. Tech ninja. :D

    I always bring 2-4 pre made magic decks with me to cons for the rare occassion when someone gets bored, or has just never played before.

    Of course, if it's a windy day then MTG is pretty much out for the wait line. Unless you were teched-up and had Magic WorkStation on a laptop as a plan B. :O

    Has anyone mentioned Clubhouse Games (DS) yet? There's an idea.

    I used to play MTG a lot, but we never adhered to any rule sets or anything. I don't think I bought much after 5th edition came out, it was that long ago! Once they started bringing in a whole shitpile of new stupid rules and effects, I started losing interest. Changing the cards was the ultimate blow, so I won't buy new stuff anymore.

    I got Jump Ultimate Stars for the DS. Since it's an import title and a very fun game, I'll bring it to let some people who've wanted to play it but are not interested in importing. So yeah, count on me hosting some Jump Ultimate Stars in the PAX07' line.

    Yeah...no thanks... PAX seems to be at least 10 guys to 1 girl, so... I'm gonna pass on the sausage fest. You guys can get all criscoed (is that a word?) up for each other if that's what you're into...and that's fine if you are...but I'll stick to Mario Kart while waiting in line.

    You know you wanna play :winky:

    And the low girl ratio is a good thing, cause then you know it's pretty much only us awesome ones. Because most girls have kooties, and make you play tea party and dress up. Why would you wanna play with those ones?

    ^ can be eyes of "bewbs".

    anyway, i really dig the chicks that go to pax. they may be fewer in number than the general consistency of the population, but those who aren't there with their boyfriends tend to be very rad easy going gamer chicks, and many of them are really cute. but this thread is turning back into the "Pax is not a dating service thread". Seriously, that thread seems to get referenced everywhere around here, are we that horny? :P
