Monday. PAX East 2011 is over, but the new episode of the ESH Podcast is just beginning! This week the sistah's are joined by ESH alum King Bab yDuck (of BostonBastardBrigade.com) and awesome friends of the show Chris “Kropotkin” O’Regan from SuperHappyFunTimeShow (SHFTS.com) and Edie "GamerEdie" Sellers from GameHounds (GameHounds.net), and this gathering was epic...

Finish what you started...

It's 6:37pm EDT. The last round of the Omegathon has ended. Gamers, friends and family members pour out of the BCEC slowly, but with smiles upon their faces. Paul and Storm have left the building. Pax East 2011 has come to a close.

There comes a time in every person's life where they will be utterly and completely bored.

Greetings all!

Your ever-faithful Pandalicious has finally come out of her stupor like a phoenix from the flame to tell you about her observations on the first day of a much anticipated Pax EAST 2011.

First and foremost let me state now that the venue has been upgraded to the BCEC. There-is-so-much-space. More than the convention is actually using, but this is a lot better than cramming all of us into the Hynes Convention Center.

Our beloved beanbags are sadly not thrown along the edges of the convention site - but that might just indirectly comment on the event. The con-funk is fairly ripe now, as such is the vibe of gamers coming together and do what they do best – game?

I've been quite the busy panda, firstly I've explored the world of table top today- I paid a much needed visit to the Wizards of the Coast for some Magic the Gathering News and some good ole Dungeon and Dragons tidbits.

During my afternoon rounds Portal 2 served up some promising morsels as well.

In the evening, a stop over at Turbine for some Lord of the Rings Online, where I asked myself the question, "what can we expect from this MMO that we haven't seen already?"

Over all, today have been quite eventful – and this is only day one. Tomorrow brings with it panels...

More details about the things I've seen will come so stay tuned.

The first exposure I had to Child of Eden was at developer Ubisoft's press conference last year at E3. The trippy electro-synth-pop music that wafted over me as I sat in the theater instantly reminded me of the PS3 game Flow - one of my all-time favorite games by the way. I found myself thinking, Flow 2 only to be surprised and treated to the introduction of Eden. Fast forward 8 months and I'm at Pax East, where the game is playable.
