PAX East 2010′s Gallery-o-Swag
I hinted at this on Sunday, when I tossed up a catch-all photo of my post-con swag pile and a list of the trinkets. Now, after some time in Photoshop and tinkering with a new gallery plug-in, I bring you a close-up look at the nifty swag I got from the show. Click onward to see the full gallery after the jump.
Among the more interesting and useful items picked up were a Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands silicone iPod skin, a Dark Void action figure/mini-statue, a Gambit MIT "health kit" band-aid dispenser, and a far-too-useful-for-its-own-good Zalman bottled drink clip. There were plenty of temporary tattoos, t-shirts, and stickers in the mix, along with a handful of lanyards, rubber balls, and bags.
Sadly, I couldn't pick up the real prize of the expo swag: the EA Skate 3 skate deck. Players waited in line to play Skate 3 for a chance to beat a set score in the "Hall of Meat" bone-breaking competition, and those who succeeded got a skate deck. Yes, a wooden skate deck with a PAX East design on the underside, ready for trucks, wheels, and grip tape to turn it into a real skateboard. If you were at PAX East and picked up a skate deck, send me a photo and I'll add it to the gallery.
