Road Trip bros.?
How about Turbros for a name of your con group.

This is the one thing every year that I clear all plans / cancel work immediately for. It's 3 days of pure no-bullshit retrogaming. Nothing else like it.

A bunch of the PCEFX crew, including yours truly, works with the museum area (which is a hotel conference space full of classic consoles/computers, all available for play), and Josh & crew hold down a dedicated room just for Turbo. All that plus arcade/pinball and a gargantuan vending space (30,000+ SQFT) mean you need to cancel whatever the f*ck you're doing that weekend and roll up to Milwaukee.

As an added bonus - Eugene Jarvis will be attending this year, and Retronauts will be recording an episode live on Saturday.

I have no idea who eugene jarvis is but i am excited to share the joy of DoxPhile with his fanbase. :D

Nullity is full of shit and knows full well who Eugene Jarvis is, but for you youngin' folk - he's the guy who programmed Defender and Robotron: 2084, and also had a strong hand in NARC, Smash TV and Cruisin' USA. Need not say more.

Sorry I'm going to miss that.  I would get a kick out of watching Bob Mackie read Wikipedia articles and comment on gameplay based on YouTube videos in person.  That show sucks majestically.

I think my chances for going this year are looking reallllly good! I'll only be going Saturday but I'll probably be in the Turbo room with you guys for a majority of the time. If any extra controllers/consoles/games need to be brought I'd be more than willing to do so, though I'm sure it's all covered.

Will there be a LaserActive in the house? I tried DragonmasterDan's awhile back and I'd love to play it again!

We cut it from the museum this year (typically we run it with with Road Prosecutor, Triad Stone or Pyramid Patrol) because A.) it's a pain in the ass to transport/setup and B.) it collects dust all weekend - literally had like 2 or 3 people play it last year the whole weekend.

Not having Beemer there hurts also - that man's got quite the LD-ROM collection.

Our ghetto-rigged Planet Harriers setup will be making a comeback, though!

What a damn shame! Triad Stone and Road Prosecutor are so much fun to play though!

Didn't know BMW wasn't going either, it may be earlier in this thread but still.

Also Planet Harriers looks cool too so I'll be playing that!!

Anyone going Saturday only and need a ticket still?  My friend can't go and I have a spare ticket he already bought I could email you in PDF.  Ticket cost him $40 but will sell via paypal for $30 so he can cut his losses.  PM me if interested.
