Hey everyone! We hope you had a fantastic weekend. We’re still recovering from the fantastic time we had that our Pre-PAX Anniversary Party. It was so much fun! It was such a pleasure matching names to faces as well as meeting some new folks. A huge “Thank You” to everyone who helped make it a night to remember. It seemed like some of our favorite companies were not having a very good week. THQ and SEGA had some layoffs and an old favorite closed down for For Good. On a positive note, Google made this April Fools one of the coolest ever and Silicon Knights head, Denis Dyack says Used Games Will Doom the Industry.
All in all in seemed to be al light week for us. We’re getting ready for PAX East this weekend, so look for some awesome content coming your way. As usual, we’re so thankful. We’ll keep writing as long as you keep reading.
By the way: check out the DualShockers Pre-PAX Anniversary Party in NYC pictures.
Thanks again guys!
