I just want to give potential Digital Overload attendees a heads up here, we're rapidly approaching our attendance cap, and we still have six months to go until the event. So just a few reminders:

• Nothing is reserved until you've paid. Just signing up on the website does not hold a seat for you.
• Badge prices go up on November 1st.
• Special rates at the Hilton available for a limited time.
• Check the forums for room and ride shares to save money.
  

I know it's a stupid thing to do, wishing for the release of a yet another new game when you're staring down the barrel of the fall gaming season, which is threatening to buckshot your face into mush with a slew of new titles, but I can't help it. I'm a sucker for 40K, I'm a sucker for Dawn of War, and I'm a sucker for customizable squads.



What's even more idiotic is that I am perhaps one of the worst RTS players on the planet, always preferring build-up in a world where the Zerg Rush is king. However I'm always drawn to them like we're in some bizarro world episode of the Odd Couple.
