    Can anyone bring a PS3 controller converter so I can use my PS3 controller on a 360? Much apperciated

    Just ordered one online, I was gonna bring it to Gamer Expo, but now... I might go to Inferno 14. I'll have to see how the events unfold. If you see me somewhere just ask for the converter, us pad-players gotta look out for our own :cool:

    Well that sucks big time I was looking forward to it.
    Wonder what concerns the fire officer had about the convention centre as it has hosted things like concerts before and it would have needed a fire safety certificate prior to opening. It would need a seperate certificate for each event and they're not handing them out as readily these days so that could be the issue.

    I just logged on to book my ticket for this. Nasty start to their event running.

    Ohshi-

    I was just coming into the topic to see if anyone wanted to call shotgun in my car for a lift home after the expo. This is a real shame (although it does open up Hallowe'en night for us).

    What's going to happen to the Chun Li TEs? I really wanted to try and win one of them.

    Yes, I still have them, no Chunkis can't get them, as far as I am concerned they stay where they are until I hear more.

    We have to make sure Madcatz don't want them back before we do anything with them.

    Lads the possibility of doing anything else with them is not on the table at all at the moment, there's no point even discussing it.

    I was in the convention centre earlier this year for the All-Ireland Irish Dancing C'Ships and on one of the days there was a MASSIVE disruption caused by poor fire planning or something... there were 2 fire brigades and areas cornered off... but no exacuations and no fire. It was very confusing. I asked one of the firemen what the story was and he said they were running some fire drills - and they weren't going very well >_< Basically they were finding that they had problems getting to many parts of the complex quickly whenever a large event (such as the All Irelands or Gamer Expo) was taking place.

    Would've thought they'd have sorted it by now but I guess not :/

    Well that could mean they the fire men couldn't get into the smaller spaces with all thier equipment on which dictates whether or not they certify the place. Also there has to be a fire escape no more than 17 metres away from the public at any one time no matter where you are in the centre. There could be many reasons for not issuing a certificate at this time especially as it takes 2 months normally to obtain one and thats without engineers reports/Architects drawings showing escape runs and marshalling zones so it can get really tricky. Could also be that they will need to retrofit fire suppression systems etc before they can safely hold anymore events.
    Also if they didn't take into account all these things when designing the building then they could be in big trouble.
