Arrangements are being made. Things could be happening soon. Announcements will be made when things are confirmed. This is a cryptic message.
Tonight is going to be awesome. I am looking forward to Saberpulse and an amazing night out.
Here is a sample of the gaming action happening, for when you need a quick break from the dance floor!
... UMVC3/tekkentag2 on the ps3, Halo/codblopszombies hitting the XBawks, Smashbros/doubledash on the wii and N64 retro selection. Maybe some suprises too.......
