chris: (games)
It's a big weekend for games on both sides of the Atlantic. The weekend one year ago was just as big, so there may be more than a few similarities between this post and its counterpart last year.

New York sees the fifth annual Come Out And Play festival taking place this weekend. Read more... )

The closest counterpart we have to this in the UK is the Hide and Seek Weekender, taking place in London at the National Theatre from 9th to 11th July. No games have yet been announced. [livejournal.com profile] bateleur ran a game here last year; I wonder whether he will be doing so again this year. Will anyone here be going - [livejournal.com profile] jvvw, [livejournal.com profile] hawkida, perhaps? It's five weeks away so theoretically I would be off work that weekend. Read more... )

Staying in the UK but returning to this weekend, Birmingham hosts the fourth annual UK Games Expo, which I sadly will not be attending. Once again I'm very impressed that they've managed to get as far as year four. Read more... )

There is a great deal more that I want to say on this topic, but I realise that this is essentially a topical post about this weekend, and this weekend is somehow already mostly over. I shall save the second installment for another time.
