TurboFest Tour 2017 - Second Stop VGS on July 29th!!
« on: April 26, 2017, 03:30:18 PM »
Turbo Fest is returning to Chicagoland!! The summertime classic is back with more fun and more games to play. Come take part in our exciting 5-player Battle Lode Runner and Bomberman 94 tourney matches. Then try to navigate the treacherous obstacles Darius Plus throws your way in this high scoring shooter tournament. Great prizes for the winners.
 
Tournament times are as follows:
 
Battle Lode Runner: 11 AM
Bomberman 94: 1 PM
Darius Plus: 3 PM

The event will take place July 29th at the Odeum Expo Center. The address is 1033 N. Villa Ave. Villa Park,IL. Villa Park is located a couple of miles west of Chicago. Turbo Fest is part of a retro-gaming convention called the Video Game Summit (VGS). The show, as well as Turbo Fest, will run from 10 AM-7 PM. There will be people selling retro games and many other tournaments for other consoles as well.
 
Admission to the convention is $10, but the price is well worth the admission. Entrance into our tournaments is 100% free. We would love to meet fellow T-16 enthusiasts such as yourselves. 

In comparison to MGC, the VGS is smaller. However, you will find that the gaming area is very spacious and can do a great job accommodating the awesomeness that is Turbo Fest. If you have any questions, please let me know.
 
Come spend the day with your PCEFX brethren.

Let's keep the good times rolling!

WAIT! This date didn't interfere with my vacation... I might be able to go to Chicago! I have to figure out the best way to get there....

No promises.

But this date might work!





Haha! I love that you've included the DoxPhile logo on your flyer. :D I hate that my drive is 9 hours as I'd love to return to Chicagoland. Maybe some cheap airfare will make it possible?

That's what I have to figure out, too.

12 hour drive from NJ.

My recent 12-14 hour drive from NJ to South Carolina nearly killed me.

Man I wish I could make it this year, but it doesn't look like it'll pan out. So much fun!

Thanks for the good words. Sorry you can't make it to VGS, but it was nice seeing you at MGC. :)

I missed out last year, but I think that I should be able to make it this year.

We've missed you the last couple of years. I hope to see you return. Please remind Esther about this as well. :)

Can't wait and hope I can make it for a few hours this year! If only to gang up on Dan and take him the hell down.

Dan should be playing with a blindfold.  And have his hands tied behind his back.  And be in another room, perhaps the basement... And be tied to a chair!! And have to endure a lapdance by Nully.  Then someone SHOULD be able to beat him.
