At #PAXEast, my kid had a lot of fun at the arcade area. We worked out a handicap system for Street Fighter Alpha 2: they got to take me down to 40% of my health bar at the start of the round, and then it seemed mostly fair. And they had a great time beating up Dad!
This week, I used that as an excuse to order something for my Gamecube collection: Capcom vs. SNK 2 EO. I found the cheapest Ebay listing that included a manual, and it arrived in today's post.

I had a great time at #PaxEast on Friday. I spent the rest of the weekend regretting not going for another day. It’s a little weird to spend $70 to play a board game with your friends, but the atmosphere was fun, and there was a lot to look at. I played five games on Friday: Get Baked, Photosynthesis, Sagrada, Daybreak, and Moon Colony Bloodbath. I enjoyed them all, more or less. But nothing I felt like rushing out and buying. I resisted the temptation to buy Sagrada at a good price at the show.

PAX East 2026: A Tabletop Roundup
I returned, once again, to the halls of PAX East this weekend! When I wasn't just wandering around, reading RPG books, or running sessions at Games on Demand (two sessions each of A Stern Chase Is A Long Chase and Fabula Ultima this time) I was sitting down to try games out. In case you're attending PAX East 2026 Sunday Edition, I've provided the booth numbers you can find these games at to peruse them, but by and large I expect this will be something for folks to follow up on afterwards - so please peruse the many fine and elegantly crafted links to these fine and elegantly crafted games!

My finds at Pax East: a gorgeous translucent red PS1 controller; Alien Vs Predator: Extinction for PS2; and Unreal Tournament for PS2.
The original UT is one of my favorite games of all time. I grew up playing it on my Pentium II Gateway tower. Curious to see what it's like on a console. It supports up to 4 players.

If you're from a country other than the United States, and would have liked to attend #PAXEast but wisely chose to skip it, know that I missed seeing you.

I had a sad impression from my two days at #PAXEast 2026: it shrunk.
Fewer creators and developers, fewer of the biggest ones, fewer attendees, and far fewer developers from outside the United States. I know that it's a terrible and unsafe time to be visiting the United States; foreign developers are doing the right thing and prioritizing their safety.
But that means I see less of what the world is making, my kids see less, and don't get to mix with our peers from everywhere else.

Akiiwan by Little Buffalo Studios surprised me. It’s cozy, calm, and way deeper than it looks. If you need a game that won’t drain your brain, this one’s worth a look. Find out more about my thoughts from #PAXEast this weekend, and if you're at the Con, maybe give it a look! https://shadomain.com/akiiwan/

Didn’t post any photos from Day 1 yet because my *Mom* came with me! And she bought more games than I did! A really fun and unique experience #PAXEast
