If you’ve ever organised events, you’ll know it can be a real rollercoaster ride…
We’re really grateful to everyone who has attended our two GamePad events so far in 2019. The year got off to a great start with our New Year gaming celebration in north London. Being an events organiser means signing up to a rollercoaster of emotions in the lead up to the big day itself, and this was no different.
It’s that time of year again for London Games Festival; 12 days of game-related events and activities for you to attend all across London celebrating the gaming world we live in today! Whether you’re a casual gaming fan, a hardcore gamer or someone completely new to the scene then there’s bound to be something happening for you. Here’s a look at some of the top events that are coming up during this massive festival:
We’ve got another round of our favourite cosplay from the London Comic Con, the biggest convention on the UK calendar! It’s always a treat to meet dedicated cosplayers and witness what they’ve been working on for weeks and months.
E3 2018, the Christmas of the gaming industry, took place in Los Angeles this month and the event was once again the scene of so many video game gifts at E3 this month.
MCM’s London Comic Con is the biggest convention on the UK calendar. We’ve been exhibiting regularly since 2015 and love to see the range of cosplayers that head down to the Excel Centre. Here’s a look at some of our favourites.
Ahead of the October launch of Super Mario Odyssey, I was given the opportunity to play the game at Nintendo HQ. Everyone who attended the event was given a copy of the game too. It’s one I’ve been playing with open wide-eyed wonder since.
The E3 Expo is the biggest week in the gaming calendar. So this week feels like the right time for us to launch our biggest GamePad project we’ve ever taken on: a Kickstarter for social gaming.
