Gamer Expo - Date Postponed - Doh!!

We have some bad news boys and girls, The Gamer Expo that was set to take place over the October weekend in Dublin, Ireland, has been postponed due to a technical hitch. Our sympathies go out to the lads organising it! On a more pleasant note, we have been assured that the Expo will have a new date, possibly early on in the new year! We imagine that it will give the Expo even more time to add more great features to its line up, so perhaps it will be for the better in the long run. If you have bought tickets to the event the lads will honour this, just get in touch with them. You can see the official line below. We will of course let you know any new info on the event and a new date as soon as we hear it. Looks like the Reaper Crew will have to host our own little Halloween gaming party and put on something scary, for us that means dressing up like normal people while talking about politics and other 'mature' type shit! Arg!

"
Due to an issue raised by the Senior Executive Fire Prevention Officer in relation to the Citywest Convention Centre, GAMER Expo 2010 has been postponed until further notice. We wish to confirm that all ticket purchases will be honoured (or refunded). For refunds enquire with your ticket agent or email info@gamerexpo.net. It is our intention to re-schedule the event at a later date at Citywest Convention
Centre, when the issues with the Fire Protection Officer are resolved, or alternatively at a different venue. Further details will be released as soon as possible."

Gamer Expo - 29th - 31st of October. Tickets are going like Hot Cakes!!!


Its Irish! Its for Gamers! Its the beginning of something Big!! No, I'm not talking about a giant green gaming leprechaun, I'm talking about the 'Gamer Expo' this October! So, what to expect...? There will be 4 big LAN war arenas for all the multi player heads where they can take part in tournaments and win stuff! Check out the new and preview titles in the Demo zone. There will also be tecky stuff to oogle at like 3D gaming telly's and you can even hit the retail area to splash your cash if your in the mood. If that doesn't keep you happy then head over to the Gamer Lounge where ya can chill with a drink and get some grub while ya chat about what to do next. There will be developer talks for those with a keener interest in the games industry and on the last day there will be a big Cos Play where everyone dresses up like a total loony in order to win the top prize, what the hell, its on Halloween day anyway!

For more information on tickets check the Gamer Expo site. You can also follow them on Facebook and Twitter. We will keep you posted with regular updates and news bits for this fab event between now and the 29th of October. We might even have some free tickets to give away, so keep your eyes peeled, and spread the good word!

Its not often us ghouls wander out of Reaper Towers but this is one event that will make us put down the joy pad and meet the plebs, so if you see us there feel free to say hi, or get stuffed or whatever...

Gamer Expo - 29th - 31st of October. This is gonna be Greeeeatt!


Its Irish! Its for Gamers! Its the beginning of something Big!! No, I'm not talking about a giant green gaming leprechaun, I'm talking about the 'Gamer Expo' this October! Just imagine the global gaming community traveling to Ireland for one of the biggest gaming events of the year. OK, so that's not going to happen this year but imagine it in a few years from now, E3 started off small and so did the GamesCom in Germany, I see great things for the future of Irish gaming and this is going to be a part of it! Wouldn't you like to say that you attended the first year of what has become the envy event of the gaming community?? Then get your ass down to the Gamer Expo in Citywest this October, it is going to be big and sexy! Give it some good old Irish backing!

Star Wars hits Dublin this April!!


"Do or do not... there is no try" - "It aint like dusting crops boy" - "I am your father" - 'Thats not a Pillow... err I mean moon'-(oops wrong movie) If these quotes seem familiar then this is your bag... If like most man-children you love Star Wars and haven't been disillusioned by Lucas's most recent rapeing of the Emperial fantasyland then you just might be into this! Form April 3rd to the 5th you can see all the props and splendor of this most loved franchise at the Citywest Hotel, its called the 'Invasion Dublin'. It would be a great family day out or just good for a fan boy fest. This is what you can expect: "
See a life-size Scout Walker in all its glory, experience the jaw-dropping lifesize Y-Wing fighter up close, the immense scale of this very famous rebel starship is something to be seen. To be able to sit on the Emperor’s Throne and be flanked by Royal Guards while Darth Vader kneels in obedience in front of you is a fan’s dream come true." Tickets start at around 14 yo yo's, cheaper than ton-ton poo! For booking and further details check out the Citywest website here. May the Force be with you... and the traffic!
