VW Main: Read All About VW's Adventure!

Posted by Remora:

As you may or may not know, some of us on staff here at VW visited Volition's office in Champaign, IL earlier this week. We had a lot of fun, learned a lot about Volition's upcoming games, and we were even shocked a few times! Especially by Orange, TEH MONST4R!!1! (inside joke, read the article if you are curious).

The articles section (which is now the new repository for all articles here at VW, by the way) contains two new articles about this trip. One is a humorous narrative about the events, and the other is a slideshow of all the pictures we are allowed to post (Todd has some neat "art" in his office, Todd's face was in the picture so we can't post it or something). If you are brave enough, click here. Don't forget to post comments! We want to know what you think ... seriously!

And don't bother saying how scary you think we all look ... because I know you look more scary than me! But maybe not as scary as Orange ... bwahahahha

OMG....

That was QUITE the funny story... two thumbs up to Rem and the gang... but I'm curious. How did you guys manage to pull this off? Get an invite from Volition? Just went and hoped they'd let you in? Also, do you all live close to Champlain, or did some of you have to travel a bit?

Hah ... see ivan? People actually DID read it!!

We contacted V in advance, of course ... they did all this stuff on their end so it was cool with THQ, and we got the grand tour. I think the closest of the four that went was 4.5 hours drive from where they lived.

That is certainly unexpected, I thought Dyn was more normal than I was hahaha

But I will take that as a compliment. I think

Okay, only one person has admitted to reading it, the other two looked at the pics but didn't necessarily read the story. That does not constitue a success. I didn't read all of it.

I read it, and found it quite humorous. I was also overcome with envy. h4w @ ivan.

I'm the small kid? I was sure Dynamo was smaller and of the same age as myself.

I'd also hazard to guess that we're all fairly normal looking compaired to some of the other strange people on the board

My visit at Volition was part of the family vacation and I believe I lived the farthest away....at about 12 hours driving time.
