To All Our Readers de Australia,

It’s that time of year again. It has nothing to do with the warmer weather, increasing unease about bushfires or anything to do with the swarms of morons who will swarm your local city for the cricket. No, it’s time for the biggest games expo in Aus: the annual iDEP eGames Expo in Melbourne.

So what can we expect this year? Well, in terms of exhibitors, amongst a whole lotta gold, we’re most excited about the appearance of 2K Games, Ubisoft and the Xbox 360 team. Apart from that, we can anticipate the usual: developer presentations, gadget demos (sweeeet), competitions and egames. Oh, and I’m going to guess there will be some cosplay.

We’ll be trawling the event to find the coolest / most pro / cutting edge stuff. We will be writing-up what we see and do at the end of each day and we will live-blog throughout via Twitter. Feed this site to stay abreast of new announcements and other stuff pertaining to the event.

The event is running Friday October 30th – Sunday November 1st, yo. Tix are $33 for an adult to attend all three days.

In conjunction, there is the eGames Masters pro-gaming exhibition on October 10th is Brisbania and October 18th in Melbourne. This could be totally rad considering how starved we are in Aus RE e-sports.

You’re Friend,

Touché, bitches!
