WEBVTT 00:00:00.359 --> 00:00:05.920 Pax is great Pax has always been great Pax always be great but what made it 00:00:03.600 --> 00:00:10.759 great this year well today Linda is going to help us go through all the top 00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:12.519 five experiences of PAX Prime 2015 an 00:00:10.759 --> 00:00:16.600 experience can be essentially anything just what made the show awesome if you 00:00:14.799 --> 00:00:21.400 want to see more videos on pack stay subscribed to see us check out PAX East 00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:26.349 in Boston in 00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:35.640 March rocket League had arguably the most talked about Tournament of the 00:00:33.160 --> 00:00:39.280 whole event despite not hosting it in the main convention buildings the 00:00:37.360 --> 00:00:43.120 tournament was hosted in an auxiliary theater not that this is a bad thing at 00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:47.079 all just makes it a lot harder to get them proper exposure then there was the 00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:50.800 lands there's two main public computer lands at packs first you have the PC 00:00:48.760 --> 00:00:54.879 free play section where anyone can sit down and play a whole slew of games for 00:00:52.879 --> 00:00:58.320 about half an hour before getting booted out to wait in the line again then 00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:02.559 there's by which stands for bring your own computer this area is somewhat 00:01:00.800 --> 00:01:07.520 protected and only those with special badges can get in both of these lands 00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:10.080 were completely consumed by the sounds of Rocket 00:01:11.479 --> 00:01:17.159 League of course there were a few people playing League of Legends or using their 00:01:15.360 --> 00:01:21.600 super expensive computers as Lightning Fast Facebook machines but you could 00:01:19.520 --> 00:01:25.439 constantly hear shouts yelling and cheers from the rocket league players 00:01:23.960 --> 00:01:29.119 there were even multiple in-house tournaments set up by random attendees 00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:34.880 because there wasn't an official land tournament for Rock Rock ET League which 00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:40.119 says a lot in my opinion next up we have the PS 10 in Penny arcade's own words 00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:45.079 each year a group of 50 industry experts select the 10 best Indie Games in regard 00:01:42.479 --> 00:01:49.159 to gameplay and overall fun Factor if you guys remember videos from previous 00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:53.600 packs events you may also remember my old top five of the Indie Mega booth 00:01:51.119 --> 00:01:58.640 videos so this kind of thing is right up my alley this year they chose Adventures 00:01:55.920 --> 00:02:04.759 of pip assault Android Cactus battlef Brigade dark Echo darkest dungeon from 00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:06.759 light grapple ninja tag tumblestone and 00:02:04.759 --> 00:02:10.000 zarvot I feel like we need to get the devs of darkest dungeon and from light 00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:16.400 to talk to each other to make an illumination neutral game H terrible pun 00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:20.319 anyways the top 10 this year was great but I did notice something interesting 00:02:18.720 --> 00:02:24.879 and that interesting thing was assault Android Cactus if you check out this 00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:28.720 video you'll see that last year in my top five I actually selected assault 00:02:26.920 --> 00:02:32.599 Android Cactus not trying to make a point about how I can predict the future 00:02:30.280 --> 00:02:37.680 or anything just an interesting fact one of my personal favorites is number three 00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:43.200 the sheer amount of VR demos a Sude demos HTC had demos NVIDIA had demos 00:02:40.519 --> 00:02:47.560 Oculus had demos and more it felt like every few boosts I would go to had some 00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:52.280 sort of VR headset rig to go along with it and there was long lines for each one 00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:56.680 not a ton has changed fundamentally in the VR space since I covered it last it 00:02:54.480 --> 00:03:01.239 feels much more like valve and Oculus are now focusing on polish instead of 00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:05.720 game CH changing features which at this point in the game is probably the right 00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:10.640 thing to do here's the VR Making Waves in 2016 then there was of course what 00:03:08.200 --> 00:03:14.519 lonus and I covered from Intel's drone zone and a bunch of random attendees 00:03:12.440 --> 00:03:19.840 trying to beat Cloud9 players at random stuff to Hardware Galore and a couple 00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:24.440 system showcases this year was packed with awesome stuff which I hope you guys 00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:28.959 enjoyed some shows that I go to I have a hard time kind of finding enough stuff 00:03:26.200 --> 00:03:31.680 to cover for you guys this year however everything seemed to kind of fall into 00:03:30.200 --> 00:03:36.560 my lap and there ended up actually being an excess of videos which definitely 00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:39.920 isn't a bad thing PAX Prime and Gamescom are always interesting events because 00:03:38.239 --> 00:03:44.760 it's basically foreshadowing of the holiday season's releases which for both 00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:49.560 games and Hardware is often pretty epic finally no matter how cheesy it is the 00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:53.120 people attending PAX Prime and hosting PAX Prime are always the best thing 00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:57.319 about it say what you will about Gamers online and honestly if it's negative 00:03:55.480 --> 00:04:00.680 you're probably right with different communities being known for how 00:03:58.920 --> 00:04:04.239 aggressive and an an agonizing they are and with developers building functions 00:04:02.239 --> 00:04:08.000 into their games to attempt to stop people from being dicks it's pretty 00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:13.000 clear that the gaming community may not necessarily be a well of positivity that 00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:14.959 seems to change in person however at PS 00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:19.479 people are accepting talkative helpful and generally seem happy to see you this 00:04:17.359 --> 00:04:23.240 was my 10th year at PAX Prime and I can honestly say that even though it's grown 00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:27.400 so much and people have come and gone over the years I've never failed to bump 00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:31.400 into a small army of awesome people whether it's just chilling and hanging 00:04:28.520 --> 00:04:35.880 out in BC in an absurdly long line together or just asking random questions 00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:39.759 of each other I can accurately assume that the average attendee will be warm 00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:44.639 and welcoming person and while it may seem cheesy that's pretty damn cool do 00:04:42.360 --> 00:04:47.840 you want to become a game developer do you want to have your own booth sitting 00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:52.280 in the Indie Mega Booth or do you want to
