Can anything good come out of France?

I've wanted to go to a gaming convention. So I always think about going to E3 or PAX. I found another one - its not on the west coast - held in French speaking Canada. What caught my attention were the speakers:
  • Yoichi Wada, Chairman-CEO, Square Enix Final Fantasy and Tomb Raider - could be interesting.
  • Paul Holden, Lead Architect, Media Molecule LittleBigPlanet designer - I'm very interested.
  • Jason Holtman, Valve I like Valve (Portal!) - and this guy is always causing trouble
  • Heather Chaplin, Author I've heard her on NPR
  • Chris Hecker, Maxis/EA A writer and contributer to Spore. He will speak on the oft debated "Are games art?"

I'm interested. I'm a little concerned that the default language of the web page is french. Here is the English link.

What do you think? Do you want to meet up in Montreal?

Ironically, I plan to be in California the week before.

What do you think? Meet up in Montreal.
