<div class="IPBDescription">EIEF</div> Well its almost that time of year again for EIEF.

<a href='http://www.eief.co.uk/' target='_blank'>Homepage</a>

Its an event where there are games on showaces (some new some recent) as well as developers who you can talk to. As for more info i havent had much time to look at it but its the 10th of August to the 14th and only 3 quid a ticket.

Anyone planning to go along?

    ive seen a documentary about some danish who was there performing in 2003 i think, they had to start all from scratch even though they were some of the most known comedians here.

    they had a little problem with the languge and getting people to see it and such.

    but eventually it got much better dont know if they did it again

    Im up for meeting a bunch of people up and going round in a group so far 2 of my mates are going but that is looking to easily grow to 5 or 6 by tomorow.

    But that leaves a fate to be decided and a time.

    Just a word of warning but the 'go play games' thing is poop. I took some friends from Dundee to it and we were all kinda underwhelmed.
    On the brightside we got to show off our soul-calibur 2 skills we'd polished on the jp import off to a crowd. Even better because I didn't play until the end and totalled scot (who'd been winning all the matches against the others) in seconds infront of a large crowd XD

    He needed his ego deflated anyways :p


    <b>edit:</b> ooh! after reading up on it, it seems better than the one I went to! I hope they have more floorspace this time :D
    Admittedly it'll probably be better anyways because it won't have a big bit taken up by people trying to peddle the n-gage this time I think o.O

    You may be cheaper going using bargan flights not 100% sure tho, i know its gonna cost me a tenner in the train but i can live with that, since i will go round the corner up near the castle for the best hotdogs iv ever had again.

    Some good friends from my uni are up in Scotland at the moment, developing a game as part of a competition/course in games development (Dundee University?). I think they will be attending EIEF, I might go up for a day or two, depending on work and family.
