mimoco at E For All 2007!

That's right, we just got back from the City of Angels (returning, of course, to the City of Red Sox) where we peddled our artistic wares at the E For All video game show. Naturally, this was the Halo mimobot Series 1's coming out party, since they officially went on sale the same day E For All started.

The show started off quite well, with lots of visitors on a Thursday (what, Californians don't work? Must be nice!). The rest of the show was rather slow, though, with low foot traffic and plenty of time for me to play Unreal 3, Guitar Hero 3 and, the cream of the crop, Rock Friggin' Band!

Honestly though, E For All attendees seemed to dig the Halo 'bots (and the Star Wars Series 1), and there were plenty of "Finish the file transfer!" shouts thrown about (big ups to Gizmodo's Brian Lam for the play-on-words). LA pretty much rocked outside the show, where I personally tore up the Brass Monkey bar on Wilshire with a stunning rendition of "The Humpty Dance." The mimopeeps also made our appearances at Mann's Chinese Theater and the Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles in Long Beach.

Well, that was our trip; with Master Chief and his cadre of Spartans in tow, we successfully invaded Los Angeles and had a wonderful time. For those of you who we were lucky enough to meet at the show, thanks for coming by, and with winter coming make sure you have a protoHoodie to keep your mimobots warm!
