    Never heard about it and if I could afford the trip I would definitely go. Dubai is an amazing city with incredible architecture. And we must not forget the skyscrapers which are ridiculously tall! Do you mind taking pictures of this event and upload it here? It would be great if you could share your experience with us.

    I went there today and its really not worth the time i spent in looking for it ( very small area :p ).

    actually theres nothing really new to see, just a games that will release soon like Encharted 2 for PS3, and some other games to try it out while its already in the market ( NFS Shift, Fifa 2010, Aion, ... )

    this is not a big event for games, theres another, Games Expo, i think it will start in 27th oct if i remember, this or Duabi Gitex will be more like E3 and worth to give it a visit :)
