(Disclaimer, if you didn't know already: our company, Gamer Network, runs EGX, but the events team is separately run from this website.)Team Eurogamer will be there, as ever, albeit in a little less than full force for once, due largely to the sheer quantity of babies we've produced over the last 12 months (or are about to produce in the coming weeks, god help me). Still, Tom, Johnny, Ian, Aoife and Chris Bratt will all be at the NEC Birmingham for the show, so if you're going and spot one of them, do say hi.

EGX isn't all about queueing to play massive unreleased games, so we've included a few other bits and pieces. And of course, this only scratches the surface - check out the EGX site for the full run-down. There are still a handful of tickets available on Thursday, Friday and Sunday, by the way.
