PC Perspective: Quakecon 2005 - Tenth Anniversary

**MIG-31** · Aug 16, 2005, 06:18 PM

Quakecon has always had a special place in my heart as one of the most fun and entertaining shows I attend on an annual basis. Instead of business reps in suits and ties sitting around formal tables discussing plans, you might find PR reps talking with some media, or even the attendees in some IKEA techno-twirly-green chairs or sniping each other on some Battlefield 2.

This year’s Quakecon did things a little different than last, merging the vendor area and BYOC area (Bring Your Own Computer) into a single room instead of splitting them apart. This gave the attendees a better chance to interact with the representatives of the companies that shelled out the hard cash that could make it all happen. Kudos to the staff for making that happen.
