Aye..
Gotta agree with you there.. the show wasnt exactly breathtaking.. The
Korean section had some nice
ideas.. the micro bots machine was a fun idea ( not really a videogame but
at least it was original ).

Some of it appeard to be the same as last year.. Erotica Island had a huge
queue of people wanting to have thier picture
taken with some bikini clad women again ( these people out to get out
more ).

My highlight was actually managing to find the DarkHex gang. hahaha.. wish I
had a camera to take thier surprised
expressions when I asked if they wrote those crappy Yaroze games !.. of
course I had my badge in my pocket so they had
no idea who I was. Anyways.. nice to have finally seen ya.. and I hope you
managed to get some good leads...
You already produce some great stuff on the Yaroze so Im keeping my fingers
crossed for you all.

Cheers
John ( QuietBloke )
