It's a great way to end the summer.

I'm pretty sure I'll be attending, and may be even drag my brother along with his PC for a bit.

You should take off at least 1 day or half day (friday).

[KevinFACE!]

I'm taking the full week off... from Monday before QC to the Monday after. I will be volunteering during the week, etc.

Yeah Friday may be possible - depends how busy work stuff is. I would hate to take a day off only to receive dozens of phone calls haha.

[Ranga14]

wow, I would do that but I'm taking 4 days off around Memorial day for my move.

Although I might do a half day or get off early Wed, unsure.

[KevinFACE!]

That's going to be my vacation (if you want to call it that) this year... sadly we get 5 weeks of paid time off per year + holidays but I will likely only get to take 1 to 2 weeks off.

Smashing noobs is my specialty... so who's ready to see some Doom 4?

Me. Although I'm not really expecting anything special, I doubt they have anything new or astonishing to show. However there is that little hope that just like with Doom 3, they'll do a good job of making the game immerse the player and genuinely scare the heck out of them the entire time, with some key innovative graphical and sound features to boot.
