Play Expo 2013

Play Expo 2013 is just around the corner (October 12/13) it is a gaming expo which focuses on what made gaming great for us oldies growing up in the 80's and 90's,( these youngsters don't know what it's like not having Save States every 5 minutes!). This year it is being held once again at Event City in Manchester (yes, a gaming expo held North of London!!)

They have everything from all the eras from the Atari 2600 right upto exhibits from Nintendo and Oculus Rift this year,( I believe they're trying to get Xbox 1 and PS4 there as well) they will also have over 100 different arcade machines and pinball machines all on free play for you all to enjoy. From little tournaments on the original Halo and massive original Xbox pads, to shops selling 'retro' video games and much more.

Just wondering if any of you lovely people are going to it?
