MAGFest is a music and video gaming festival run by fans, for fans. In more verbose terms, it's an annual event dedicated to the celebration of video games and video game music. Every year offers 24-hour console, arcade, and PC game rooms, live video game cover bands, a vendors area, and guest speakers from the video game industry and fan scene. It also features a "JamSpace" available to all attendees for impromptu music performances. Numerous other events are scheduled each day.

What makes MAGFest unique is that it's an event run by fans for fans. There are no corporate sponsors, no over-crowded showfloors, and no hour long lines. MAGFest is built from the ground up to be a party-like atmosphere with focus on community and fan creations, which creates an environment that no other expo or convention can ever recreate.

How many ppl show up for magfest?

@mr420 As said below, last year we had a limit of 3000 people due to the size of the hotel. This year we're in a bigger hotel, so we're going to have more.

Magfest 7 was in 2010? Am I missing something? 2012 = 10 2011 = 9 2010 = 8?? Whaaa?

@Warchamp7 mmm good point. For a optimal LCD or competitive LCD you would have to spend a lot of money on it. understandable. I hope i can attend this year. I was summoned to jury duty this date. well the 4th rather, but it could run into it and ruin meeting the creator of things I enjoy.

@IrKrash CRTs are better for any competitive gaming such as fighters. LCD screens have delay

[IrKrash]

it would be interesting if they networked magfest to join in over a host IP server. ie enjoy magfest from your home PC or console.

omg all those CRT's... I hope they up dated for 2012... fml
