An estimated 17,000 video game fans are expected to head to Bellevue's Meydenbauer Center this weekend for the Penny Arcade Expo.

This convention, just a few years old now, has grown to what seems to be the largest video game convention out there, especially now that E3 is scaling down to fewer than 10,000 people. PAX, as it is called, isn't an industry conference; rather, it's solely for video game fans.

Admission is about $25 each day. Check the convention home page for more information.
