Game On- Review

Yesterday I went to Game On.

Game On is a gaming exhibition held at ACMI (Australian Center for the moving image) in federation square.

I walked into the exhibition and saw heaven!

Retro games as far as the eye could see, as well as more recent ones.

I started to regret arriving late.
It was packed! So many games i wanted to play were taken, but patience was the key to getting a turn. If you waited long enough you could play.

The games were plentiful and varied. Every game had information stuck on it explaining how to play the game, and what platform it's on.
All the games were in different groups.

-Early Arcade games


-Games Consoles


-Games Families


-Kids Games


-Character


-Film Games


-Sound


-Game Culture (USA and Europe)


-Game Culture (Australia)


-Game Culture (Japan)


-Multiplayer


-The making and Marketing of Games


-Future Technology


-Mobile Games


-Online communities



On the walls there were bits of Game information and game art.

In the early arcade games section, there were Space Invaders tables which I played a lot of!


I had a compition with some guys on Super Smash bros melee.

In the end I had a very enjoyable time and I think every gamer in Melbourne should go there. There's plenty of time, Game On ends on the 13th of July!

96/100

The best gaming exhibition ever!
