Everyone is excited to get their hands on the next generations of consoles, and if you haven’t pre-ordered yet because you want to test out the machines for yourself, then head over to this year’s GameStop EXPO,
Gamestop is offering the public and PowerUp Rewards members the opportunity to be among the first to play the new generation of consoles, Microsoft’s Xbox One the PS4, months before release.
Gaming fans can register for the consumer show, taking place Aug. 28 at the Sands Expo and Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nev., to get a close-up look and hands-on experience with the new systems and their exciting launch lineups.
VIP ticket holders will also have access to exclusive Q&A sessions in which they can pose questions about the consoles to panelists from Microsoft and Sony.
GameStop has a very limited number of VIP tickets left, priced at $90 and available for purchase only on the official site (below), payable with PowerUp Rewards points or credit card. VIP admission includes early admittance to the show floor, a VIP lounge, a gaming tournament, access to panel discussions with some of the biggest names in the industry, plus a swag bag of gaming goodies filled with such items as a limited edition EXPO 2013 T-shirt and Madden 25 for Xbox 360.
General admission is $35 and can be purchased online or at a local GameStop store. General admission offers seven hours at the show featuring 250,000 square feet of video gaming fun including demos and hands-on experience with the newest consoles and the hottest games coming, plus insider tips and tricks for top games from their developers. Attendees can also enjoy special appearances and autograph signings at vendor booths and chances to win prizes in drawings from their favorite video game publishers.
GameStop is also now offering a specially priced student admission ticket for students to enjoy EXPO after school for a discounted price. Student admission can be purchased onsite for $20 starting at 3:30 p.m. until the floor closes at 6:00 p.m.
