Hardcore Gamer: Compared to the hectic bustle of most cons, the Vancouver Retro Gaming Expo is a quiet, laid-back affair. This is owed largely to the venue. The Columbia theatre in New Westminster has a very quaint vibe, enhanced by its hole-in-the-wall, waterfront location. The main room is pretty ornate in a local theatre sort of way, with chandeliers and velvet curtains hanging from the rafters. Its an odd contrast to see gaming screens scattered throughout the dining area, with projectors near the stage for tournaments and an art gallery tucked into the corner, but it adds to the quirky tone of the event. The liquor license doesnt hurt either. Haggling
