Geeked out at Club Saw’s Arcade show on Saturday night. There was karaoke Rock Band on the big concert stage, retro gaming and a PacMan & Galaga competition that was about as intense as it can get. All the new and old gaming hardware as well as the video equipment was donated by the staff and friends of Saw Video.

I wish there were a lot more of this sort of event in Ottawa. The people are here for it and the rooms at this one were packed. Let’s get a Comi-con or next years Fan Expo here in the Capital.

I finally got to play E.T. on the Atari 2600. It truly is the worst game ever made. It brought an entire industry to its knees. Here’s a great little history lesson for anyone who’s interested “Video Game Crash of 1983”

Woow! That’s a big screen.
