I would come if I could, but having a fulltime job and 3 kids means it's not easy to head off just like that.

Maybe not, but the European Community Lead has provided his details for a chin wag. It'll likely come to nothing, but it's at least an acknowledgement of my request :)

There and back again...on the Saturday most probably.

Unsure if I should drive to Reading then train in from there due to track closures from Bristol to Newport and therefore a bus replacement...or just bus then train so I could have a pint if I wanted one.

It was a good little show to be fair; DOOM Eternal is just as mental as the other other one, only with more stuff you can do, character wise.

They had a cool set up where they had DOOM (original) on loads of different platforms, so N64, PS1, Atari Jaguar etc. It was very cool seeing them all lined up next to each other.

Also Phant is more of a dude than you could ever imagine :cool:

Yeah you pricks missed out on some steamy HMS and some fine welsh0 beer.

High point was the new Doom looks to be good. Another belter of a sound track. I tried VR for the first time too. Really fun stuff...The low point was being reminded by Donny how bad I am at FPS by getting trashed 1v1. GGs :D

Sounds like you had a great time.
I wish I could've been there, really, but with real life... kids, family, job, it's just not that easy to just jump on a plane and go to England.

WTF is wrong with Americans? Guys who call football soccer? Who eat sweet bread with something that smells like meat (but does not taste like meat at all)? Who need user guides to use simple everyday objects? You dare to call Europeans weird?

Iwas surprised there's what looks to be a 10-year-old in the crowd. Great parenting.
