During the thick of this year’s Game Developers Conference, we’ve set up an area for bloggers/media to drop by, put their feet up, file their stories, play our new and upcoming games, eat our food, get caffeinated, and chat with some of our top developers. Not bad, right?
If I wasn’t working at PlayStation, sounds like something I’d want to attend. So, we figured, why not? Which is why we’re going to open up our PlayStation.Blog.Lounge to our readers and fans during a special GDC Meetup, next Wednesday evening (March 25th, 7-9pm) in San Francisco. BTW, please don’t complain that it’s not at [insert your hometown here] – we don’t run the convention!
PlayStation.Blog readers, fanboys, aspiring bloggers and gamers are all welcome to eat, drink, meet, chat, and maybe even play some stuff that isn’t out yet ;-)
Space is super limited, so you need to click the registration button below to RSVP and let us know you’ll be there:
We hope to see you next week!
PS: BRING YOUR PSP!

Maybe next year.

cell989 | March 18th, 2009 at 2:40 pm
My PSP is not……. “registered” “current” “official”, does that matter Jeff???
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 18, 2009 at 2:52 pm
It means it’ll be a nice paperweight.

Craiji | March 18th, 2009 at 2:47 pm
Signed up and ready to go, I wish GDC was still in San Jose much easier commute from cupertino after work…
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 18, 2009 at 2:53 pm
Dude, 280 in Cupertino is *rough*, but once you hit Palo Alto, pretty smooth sailing. You’ll be fine.

Midgetguy | March 18th, 2009 at 2:51 pm
COOL! I wish I could go, but since I can’t drive and I have to go to school… It’s an extremely unfortunate no… :(
But, still, it’s a GREAT idea, and believe me, I WILL go to at least ONE of these events! I just have to! lol

mixedkidbx | March 18th, 2009 at 2:52 pm
Jeff

rynedee | March 18th, 2009 at 2:54 pm
Sounds fun, hope y’all have a good time!
Looking forward to sharing those ‘unreleased’ e- if and when they become available…

bushisprez | March 18th, 2009 at 2:56 pm

jstev | March 18th, 2009 at 2:56 pm
Jeff, will you be there, I’m your biggest fan!!
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 18, 2009 at 5:17 pm
Thank you, though I’m not sure I should have fans, per se. I’ll be there, of course.

TheHater2 | March 18th, 2009 at 2:59 pm
@Jeff

Anything you do in NYC, Me and my friends will be there :)

KingOfHearts | March 18th, 2009 at 3:00 pm
Will you guys ever brign something like this to Boston?
25
BZKlint | March 18th, 2009 at 3:01 pm
If I bribed you, could you set up a laptop on a rolling tv stand and push it around so I could mingle via web cam?
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 18, 2009 at 5:17 pm
Hmm, maybe we could run something on UStream? I’ll look into it.
26
Cancer-fish | March 18th, 2009 at 3:03 pm
wish I could go
27
mdd34 | March 18th, 2009 at 3:05 pm
This is great… but there should be a GDC 2009 Home Space so we can all attend, lol.
28
Maguss | March 18th, 2009 at 3:06 pm
Nooo!!! I was supposed to go but without a job I couldn’t make the trip : (. Damn economy!
29
evildude683 | March 18th, 2009 at 3:07 pm
Screw that..why is always “California”?..i hate that place.
30
Craiji | March 18th, 2009 at 3:08 pm
boss, will let me leave early! Yeah I work at the place that makes cupertino traffic so rough. Is there parking nearby? or should I just bart it?
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 18, 2009 at 5:18 pm
Well, BART doesn’t go to Cupertino, but it’s walking distance from the Montgomery station.
31
GamerMoney | March 18th, 2009 at 3:10 pm
crap!!!! lol, i’ve been waiting for a meet up this year so I could go, the one time i can’t afford to go..a meet up pops up lol, i’ll be saving up for vegas starting april for when i go in july but if anything happens during e3 then i’ll definitely be there…i’ll catch a plane in a jiffy
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 18, 2009 at 5:18 pm
Maybe you should change your PSN ID?
:-P
32
chubigans | March 18th, 2009 at 3:10 pm
Will there be an event at the Austin GDC later this year? Oh please oh please oh please!
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 18, 2009 at 5:19 pm
Hmm, that’s a good idea. No promises, but I’d like to make that happen.
33
GamerMoney | March 18th, 2009 at 3:13 pm
sony needs to atleast stream video of gdc in home
34
mdd34 | March 18th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
@34 – How awesome would a Home Space of GDC be though? I am crossing my fingers they at least have an E3 Home Space complete with trailers, clips, and possibly exclusive access to demos! That would be so incredibly sweet.
35
guitain | March 18th, 2009 at 3:24 pm
Yay, that’s close to where I am! Just south the border! … If only I knew where Leipzig is, and how to get there… Oh and to be 18 and completely independente of your parents’ plans xD
36
hvy20 | March 18th, 2009 at 3:34 pm
Cool, will we get any videos of this?
37
Zezzler | March 18th, 2009 at 3:34 pm
DANG!! I wish i lived in the US…
hey Jeff, any chance of you taking a nice little trip to Canada sometime? and have some event there too?
38
Lazyxbum | March 18th, 2009 at 3:38 pm
Is it free to go there?
I live in San francisco and would like to attend if its free.
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 18, 2009 at 5:19 pm
Of course it’s free.
39
xaos | March 18th, 2009 at 3:38 pm
Sweet; I’ll just work late that day and stroll the two blocks over. See you kids then. Don’t be intimidated by my awesomeness when you have the pleasure of meeting me in person ;)

Jim777 | March 18th, 2009 at 3:38 pm
Why am i never in these citys
AAAAAGGGHHHHH lol
41
Thrasher20 | March 18th, 2009 at 3:39 pm
Done! I will be there hopefully! :) Can’t wait what Kojima has to say! And hopefully there will be a MGS 5 going on ;)
42
ross_k | March 18th, 2009 at 3:54 pm
Why dont you come to Scotland, or more accurately Shetland, that would be nice
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 18, 2009 at 5:20 pm
Yes, that would be nice. You can buy the McEwans (that’s Scottish, right?)
43
Jimal23 | March 18th, 2009 at 3:55 pm
Sweet. I signed up and am going. Finally something good close to me this year lol.
44
Ftwrthtx | March 18th, 2009 at 4:06 pm
Hopefully the 90 mile drive for me won’t take forever with traffic. Heading into SF from Sacramento isn’t usually as bad as heading out, so I should be ok.
45
NEJI64 | March 18th, 2009 at 4:07 pm
i live in Jersey cant wait till a N.Y.C event I would come to Cali but like the Infamous little gurl “I’m scared” of earthquakes. ROFL well have fun fella and ladies
46
Zookey | March 18th, 2009 at 4:16 pm
PLEASE do this next year too!!!!!
47
JKar275 | March 18th, 2009 at 4:18 pm
I wish that I could be there and meet up with you Jeff and my fellow Playstation fans. Unfortunately, I live too far away. However, I wish everyone that is traveling to GDC ‘09 a very safe trip and a great time!
48
angelcoma | March 18th, 2009 at 4:26 pm
I won’t be going sadly, but will show up to E3 most likely.
Hope you have fun, very excited, what with all the rumors flying around.
49
tirminyl | March 18th, 2009 at 4:42 pm
Awesome Jeff.
Also, the Announcements section in the navigation panel…the links take you directly to the PlayStation home page. Is there special privileges one must have or are the links broken?
Jeff Rubenstein replied on March 18, 2009 at 5:21 pm
Hmm, I’ll check into that…
