HOL/APoV/EAB At The Classic Gaming Expo

CodyJarrett · 30 June 2004, 21:28

CAPS are going to the Classic Gaming Expo in Croydon (outer London) on the 24th & 25th July, so we thought that it's only fitting that the HOL, APoV and EAB should be there too!

http://www.cgexpo-uk.com/

The general plan is to have Amigas for playing lots of WHDLoad games as well as game boxes and a computer to access the HOL/APOV/EAB if there is Internet access. And anything else we can think of.

Is anybody planning to go to the show?

aww... i would like to, but there's some eterogeneous pieces of land and some dip of sea between me and croydon...
so, i want to tell my best wishes for your stand instead, and for the happening

Codetapper · 30 June 2004, 22:44

Make sure you take plenty of photos of your stand for us Cody!

killergorilla · 30 June 2004, 22:50

Ah stuff it, why not. It's not that far so I might as well pop along. I'll be the only gorilla there dressed as a human.

Peanutuk · 30 June 2004, 23:12

Do you need to pay to get it in etc etc?

CodyJarrett · 30 June 2004, 23:16

Yes, it's something like £6.

rattus · 30 June 2004, 23:50

hmmm....

fiath · 01 July 2004, 00:06

Sounds great Cody! I hope we end up near you guys.

Though your stall sounds far more exciting that ours so far

Anyway, I guess I better start practicing the talk I will be doing... Ho hum...

Are you absolutely sure that you can't afford the transport?

@Cody
You can't take a 120 cm plasma screen to the show by any chance? Would be cool if you could display HOL/APoV/EAB and HD patched Amiga games on one. It surely would attract more people to your stand

CodyJarrett · 02 July 2004, 08:07

I'm going to get my brother's widescreen TV and take it to the show; he also lives in Croydon!

DrBong · 02 July 2004, 08:13

Cool! How big is it (no laughs please)?!

CodyJarrett · 02 July 2004, 08:29

I think it's a 28" screen - not massive, but large enough to make the games look good.

fiath · 02 July 2004, 09:19

Hmm, I am wondering if there is any point us bring an Amiga to play games on! Especially the 14" Amstrad monitor I have! Perhaps we should just use it for dumping games...

Big-Byte · 11 July 2004, 22:44

Well Im coming to the show as well now so I can bring an Amiga A500+ with a monitor (Im 90% certain I will be coming by car)

The Amiga will be for sale too.. so if anyone wants to buy it it will be £25 for Amiga + Monitor.

I will also bring all the (original) Amiga disks I can find as there maybe something worth dumping.

fiath · 12 July 2004, 12:13

Nice. I got confirmation we will be next to you guys, which probably a good thing if people want to actually play games rather than just watch them be imaged...

Actually, we had better be a bit careful doing that. We probably own most games being dumped (though obviously not good versions of them), but certain people might perceive something quite different.

CodyJarrett · 20 July 2004, 14:28

The show's this weekend, on Saturday and Sunday.

So far killergorilla and Big-Byte are visiting. Anybody else?
