If you've never been to an SOE Fan Faire before, you've been missing out! Fan Faire is a great place for SOE gamers to mix and mingle with each other and meet some of the faces behind their favorite SOE games. Here's just a taste of some of the great stuff we're planning:
In-game tournaments
Live, game-themed tournaments and quests
A costume contest
Lots of social activities, including a Kickoff Reception, a Grand Banquet and a VIP Party with live entertainment
Sneak peaks at SOE titles currently in development
The 2nd Annual Community Address from SOE President John Smedley
Developer forums and roundtablesAnd that's just the beginning! No matter which SOE game you like to play, Fan Faire will be a blast! Even if you're not an SOE gamer, we encourage you to join us and bring your friends!
