This is why I get up far too early each morning.
I think I'm up at 7 tomorrow morning, so I can get there at a decent time. Got a press pass, so I'll be the guy going in the opposite direction from the call of duty stampede!

Yeah I arrived last year for the first time in London at around half past 5. Nearly died.
8:30am-9am is plenty of time. It's normally quiet till gone 11:30am. Unless you're going for the CoD crush there isn't much point queuing that early.

First time going to London on my own. Going to be fun. Gotta take the Megabus from Cardiff at about 6AM. Drops me off at Victoria Station but I refuse to use the tube so I'm just going to walk to Earls Court.

Get the bus from Victoria, C1 will drop you off practically on the front door.
I'm staying with someone who is up for work at 7, so I have to be out by then... So I'll be chilling in that que!
For anyone who wanted to see the DriveClub dev session, it's been pulled due to illness
Been replaced with something better though - Vita indie showcase with Shahid

No more than 15 mins
Tube station is a short walk from the coach station if that is where you are. I forget which line you get for it (district?) But once on the tube, it's about 5 or 10 mins to earls court
Oh shit. I'm on the move GAF. HOLD YOUR ARSES I'M COMING.

Could you guys find out if there are any tickets sold on the door? They were 2 years ago, but with the PS4 playable i doubt their will be any this year.

Anyone happen to know what the queue outside Earl's Court is like right now? I need to know how many crazy people want that Prestige Edition of CoD ahead of me

Would love some Velocity 2X impressions when anyone gets a chance.
I'm a country boy through and through so London confuses me far too much.
No there isn't, just finished setting up and didn't see any one outside.
I was told there was lol well guess i should think maybe i could be one of the 500 for COD
PMed you it, sunshine

I won some tickets for tomorrow very excited as i've never been before. I want to go to the Phil Harrison talk on Xbox One at 12 o'clock, for those who have been before what sort of time do you you reckon I need to queue for it? Got a 10am pass
I assume it will be too busy to turn up at 12 and just stroll in.

Off to bed, tired, drunk and it's too warm. Need the cold Scottish nights. Anyway I'll be wearing my #PS4NoDRM tshirt tomorrow, look out for me. I have a superpass so will be in early queue.
Was sorely tempted to wear my Prey 2 T-Shirt from Eurogamer 2 years ago, and then stand in the Bethesda area... but I forgot to pack the damn thing. Ah well. I'll likely be wearing the PAX 2013 Double Fine / Capy T-Shirt. Because that logo is adorable.
If anybody wants to follow my movements, my twitter is '@V_Ben'... I should be relatively good at keeping people updated with my whereabouts. I'll definitely be at the Phil Harrison talk at 12 though.

I just realised 11am-7pm still won't be enough for all those games! Good lord. I have no clue what I should set priority for. I definitely want my hands on Wolfenstein because am a Starbreeze fan.
Rain, Dying Light, Hohokum, Killer Instinct, Killzone Shadow Fall, Knack, Octodad, Tengami, Shadow Warrior, Volume are what I'm interested in. Thinking of queues, that might be ambitious to see all of them in one day
Can anyone give me a clue as to what people will be running to? Xbone and PS4 games?
Do you mind if I steal that shirt off you?

I'll be there tomorrow and Friday with my wife. Wish I had gotten early bird tickets now but I was a bit slow getting tickets. Taking 2 days off work hoping it might be a bit quieter during the normal working week compared to the weekend.
Pumped to get some hands on with both next gen consoles, battlefield 4 and most of Nintendo's lineup. Hope I can fit it all in!
Anyone know if the ps4 or xbone versions of bf4 will be playable?

Try having to use the underground every morning and evening at peak hours, that's me.
