So, this clashes with LFCC (Friday and Saturday)...

However, hypothetically, is there any interest in going to this with Sega? We would request reasonable expenses if they want us there.

At the moment, it looks like we may need to pass on it, but even two or three Marines would be a good thing.

Would there be any interest in doing one or two days in Brighton and then LFCC?

Me and Bolty are due to arrive in London around 6pm on the Friday.
Can't 100% speak for him, but I'm in if you are!

Friday is out for me, but I suppose we could do Brighton Saturday and lfcc Sunday. Would people be staying in Brighton? We've got a hotel booked that would need cancelling for one night ...

Yup - I should say; Sega hasn't fixed their plans for this yet so we shouldn't make any solid plans for this yet.

Erm, i'm coming to LFCC. But as you know G i'm staying at yours. So if You, Scapey and Bolty went. I'd be left without a space. So. If one of the people are going to Brighton who are in the hotel near G. I can fill there spot? Then it works out?

If not, then i'll happily come to Brighton. But no marine. A Predator. ARE YOU TELLING ME THERE AIN'T ANY PREDATORS IN THIS NEW GAME!!! ;)

Gareth won't be going because people are staying at his place, so don't worry, you wouldn't be turfed out.

Basically, I put my name down so that we can have a presence there. As G said, no definite plans have been made with SEGA yet. Don't think the show is overly large, so a few marines might be able to do it. Sean, Angie and Chris managed to do OK and they were at PAX EAST (which is probably huge by comparison).



Thats fair dude. Thanks for the info you hairy mofo!

I was more thinking of "If everyone who is staying at Gareth's goes, me and Bolty kinda have to".

I'll see what he says - Considering bringing my SG rig if it's done in time too!

That is exactly what I want to avoid. After some poor experiences with PR companies, I will say this: We will work our asses off to help Sega out with this game, but we'll be doing it because we want to; Whether that is because of the exposure, freebies, travel, or more likely because it's shaping up to be a game that we'll all love (and for extra excuses to meet up). I'll also not going to allow the nature of the UKCM to change to cater to the needs of "the company", mainly because I don't think we have to. We're capable of being awesome, professional and fun at the same time and that casual competency fits well with the characters from the film and, I'd imagine, those in the game.

If people would prefer to do this show to LFCC or do Saturday in Brighton and Sunday in London then that is cool but no one should feel pressured to change their plans.

Well said Garath but I have one question......what if we don't have any plans yet?

Me and Liz are still waiting on work, we will probably only be able to do Sunday!

The game show in Brighton is Friday/Saturday only. LFCC is Friday-Sunday. Many people will be unable to do Friday for either show because of work.

Well, we've always worked our butts off for other events and PR companies in the past, so I can't see us changing that work ethic any time soon.

We've had hit and miss with PR companies in the past, some take us for a ride, others treat us nicely. Sadly, I think thats just the luck of the draw.

As for SEGA, I like them and its nice to be dealing directly with them. Whats more, from what I saw at the weekend, they really do appreciate what we do, and that makes me want to do as much as I can for them.

Gareth's right though, no one has to change their plans if they don't want to.

I put my name forward for Rezzed purely for the fact that we have started out so well with the folks at SEGA that it would be nice to keep that momentum going. Also, you never know, we might be asked if we have any ideas of our own to help promote the game, and I get the feeling that SEGA would be willing to hear us out.

Thats just my 2 pennies though :D


Which is why im happy to help out in anyway, we were appreciated and treated good by SEGA and Gearbox, i even got a hug at the end lol

Rex, G isn't going, Scapey and Bolty *might* go. You do have a choice



tbh i dont mind either way i'm quite happy to do both plans, the two days of promo and one at LFCC but as G has been as so kind to let me crash at his i dont wanna say "nope not coming now doing something else" XP so i'd be happy just to stick with LFCC too, but we'll see how it goes huh?

I've actually got a hand here, can't really talk about it - But it's expected to be a relatively large event. Eurogamer and RPS are teaming up for this, Eurogamer hold a yearly Expo, while RPS is one of the more well respected PC gaming blogs on the net, so there's cause to believe it'll be reasonably big.

This holds more interest for me professionally than LFCC, so I'm in for Rezzed.

Sega has requested 3 people for each day (Friday, Saturday).

Please confirm ASAP if you'd still like to attend this event, on which day and what your total requirements for expenses would be (be reasonable).


Burntkona - ?
scouse trooper - Saturday
Mantroon - Friday and Saturday
skapunkninja - Saturday?
Scapey - Saturday?
Boltrig -Saturday?
Pug50 - ?
