I didn't get the "Turbine" pun at first, and so had the gruesome idea that Turbine was using their fans as fuel. That my mind went there…what do you think it means?
I started Saturday off with a health breakfast.
Some people used the Handheld Lounge to relax.
I, however, used it to STOMP FACES.
Monday Night Combat was pretty popular.
As was Crackdown 2.

The 1-Up Megazine, Fort90, and exp. zines I picked up from Attract Mode. Pretty stoked about these. You should pick them up if you get a chance. (Not pictured: the copy of Kill Screen that was waiting for me when I got home).
Wearing buttons and bumper stickers from companies to win free stuff was a popular past-time at the show.
Maybe the coolest thing I picked up that wasn't the written word: a button with some sort of blue collar security guard ant that I got from…uhm…Pete? I think? Sorry, man, this is kind of embarassing.
These are just the highlights: the rest is in this gallery on my website. If we met at the convention, hit me up on Twitter or XBL (DontKickFood). Yinz were pretty cool.
