Chapter 201: Games Con

Games Con.

The largest and most influential annual gaming convention in the world, it was an event that was held every summer at the Los Angeles Convention Center (LACC).

Not their first rodeo, the massive venue, had an exhibit space of about 720,000 square feet fitted with the necessary technological infrastructures, all of which included its sprawling interactive show floor, developer panels and workshops, e-sports showdown arena and the cosplay section.

The venue's Main Hall, the heart of Game's Con itself, was a place where all the grand reveal and showcases of the newest flagship games, either from AAA publishers, indie devs and everyone else in between, was set to be showcased.

Then came South Hall, the main hub reserved for AAA studios and publishers like GameSoft Studios, Chronos Interactive and PixelForge Entertainment.

The hall had evenly-spaced booths, high-definition monitor screens and powerful computer rigs, all for gamers and critics to test their playable demos for their latest big-budget games in the hopes of the devs of the Studios, receiving valuable feedback.

The West Hall, on the other hand, geared towards having a more relaxed atmosphere to it.

The site, seemingly planned to offer a more intimate and less glamorous vibe when compared with those of the AAA studios and publishers as it was in fact, dedicated to the Indie Devs and their passion projects.

The Petree Hall, located in the east wing however, was where the Esports Showdown Arena for the Game's Con Championship Series (GCCS) took place.

Knowing fully well that quite a lot of gamers would be here to watch the show that had a cash prize of a million dollars, the hall had more care put into its striking presentation.

As for the hall in the north, it was where the Cosplay Extravaganza took place, its inviting walkway stage immaculately prepped for the Cosplay Parade.

It was a very fierce competition for talented cosplayers to get a shot at winning a lot of top-notch grand prizes, ranging from cash prizes to a lifetime subscription of game services on some select gaming platforms.

That said, in between these various halls, were the massive lobbies that spanned their expanse, each efficiently and expertly littered with direction signs to guide gamers to their next destination.

Currently though, it was still 6:00am in the morning and the convention hall was yet to be opened, save for the employees whom were already on ground to ensure that everything was as it should be.
