Regina’s PAX Prime Schedule
Title: What’s Your Gamer Type?
Description: Are you a goal driven gamer that collects trophies or achievement points? Do you make up back stories for your game characters or think about how and why they do what they do? Do you create a version of yourself when you game with avatars that look or act like you do out of game? Come to this interactive panel moderated by Dr. Regina McMenomy, host of the Game on Girl podcast, as she helps you learn more about yourself through your gamer type.
PANELISTS: Regina McMenomy, Ph.D. [Gamer. Writer. Podcaster, Game on Girl], Erik Oberlin [Gamer, Game on Girl], Aaron Meline [Gamer, Game on Girl], Trisha Altenburg [Gamer, Game on Girl]
In addition to my panel, I am going to be walking the con floor on Saturday and Sunday with a video crew (oh ok… with Ryan, our podcast editor and video maverick!) making a gamer at the con video starring YOU! So find me and be a participant in this first ever video community content from Game on Girl!
In light of the cons and the holiday on Monday, our show for next week will be a bit delayed but we promise it will be well worth it! Look for lots of great con coverage next week!
Until next time, get your game on at a con!
Regina & Rhonda
