EGX 24-27th Sept... Birmingham NEC.

I'll be there, I have high hopes as I enjoyed myself on previous visit at the smaller venue earls court.
Thinking about it now I should have planned to attend for the entire weekend!
 
can someone post here what destiny swag is up for grabs please, I'm going Sunday but the suspense is killing me, hoping for blacksmith shader!
 
Me and wanderer89 on here are there tomorrow
I just want to try the escapist: twd and rise of the tomb raider
Was hoping the new Ratchet and Clank would have been there but oh well
Swag wise, hoping for some tshirts

Saw people walk out with bags of stuff, so you be fine:)

I will hunt down some swag over the next few days while there.
 
But disappointed this year with the free stuff
Xbox stand you had to play certain games to collect 7 cards to then be in the chance to win an elite console i think it was

Sony didnt seem to give anything away and everything else was like postcards or posters

The past ones i remember most giving T-Shirts, giftbags with lanyards etc in away

Overall very happy though
Was surprised Ratchet and clank was there, and i really enjoyed rise of the tomb raider.

The queues for halo 5 and the division were huge at one point by the division stand, there was a sign saying "3 hours from this point"

I walked away with some bags of goodies though, what i paid for!
The sellers stands were excellent.. A wide range of shirts, bags and gaming memorabilia.
I got me a lara croft statue and also 2 arkham knight funko pops.. Batman and harley quinn
 
Going to try Tomb Raider tomorrow, spent too much time on the Nintendo stuff and Cuphead.

Ever since the recession the amount of free stuff has been cut back. Heck, when it first started back in 2002 I think. Everyone got a free tshirt and demo disc soon as you walked in just as a thank you for attending.

Can I see the tomb raider statue?
 
Going on Sunday, mostly just want to wreck some faces on Destiny, hoping they have a big showing and some tournament going on, think I have a solid chance :D.

yeah sure, think its from the collectors edition etc but they were selling them separately. probably not the best statue/figure but was just glad i got one at for me was a good price

i originally wanted the Play Arts Lara croft but not paying the £50+ they go for, got far too many funko pops to purchased back end of this month/october

Those queues were too long, they were letting you play for 30 minutes which is nice but I think 15 minutes play and a 1.5 hour queue would have been better (if it worked out that way).

well me and Wanderer89 queued for just over 2 hours for rise of the tomb raider.
if we wanted to play the division that would have meant us spending like 5+ hours of out 8 hour day just queuing for 2 games!
so we picked 1 long queue (TR) and then just went round the other games with little to no queue

Best game that we played,, for me was Ratchet, forgot how much fun it was. Definitely gonna need to invest in a PS4 at some point.
