And as far as friends go, I think if you're just a friendly person, you'll probably make a ton of friends AT magfest. They actually set up ride shares and room shares on the magfest site.

I so want to play that game! If I have enough money and friends, I'll definitely make the trip to MAGFest next year! Yea, Steel Battalion has been featured at Connecticon to great acclaim as well!

THAT'S AWESOME. I don't have an Xbox, but I was looking for used Steel Battalion stuff as soon as I got home from MAGFest.

Eventually, you come upon this incredibly weird mission that has a lot of time pressure, and I never managed to complete it. Small detail, if you DIE in the game, you're dead... meaning you have to start the game again from scratch. That is where the EJECT button comes in (shielded by a plastic cover), if you hit it, you survive (assuming you hit it before you explode), but you have to repurchase your VT to continue playing, and that is expensive as hell :P Might actually pick it up again some time soon.
