You'll have to give us a debriefing on all that is has to offer Athena! :)

It conflict a bit with my Comic-Con plans, but I'm trying to work something out while waiting for more details. :) So here's hopping I can work in both events. And I apologize ahead of time if I can

EA's Rogue Agent Community Day is by invite only. And as far as me and Comic-Con... well, Friday I'm just going to have to miss it (I've got Sat & Sun), because... are you nutZ... I can't pass up this EA event! :) So here's hopping i get some good info on July 23rd for you guys.

Anyone else from the other Bond sites going to be there? Thuffner, you? :)

Athena and I had a conflict with the San Diego Comic Con, and EA offered to fly Athena to San Diego just to accommodate us and make sure CBn was on hand for their event. Can you imagine MGM ever in a million years doing something like this?

But it's just another example of how EA gets it, and how serious they are about becoming a major entertainment company (another example is their new L.A. studio, which is right near where I live and looks amazing!). EA understands the power of fansites, fan opinion, and the web in a way that is missed and/or disparaged by the brain trust at MGM. And as far as I'm concerned, Everything or Nothing was a good a Bond "film" as any that's been made in the past 10 years by Eon.

When I did a panel with John Cork and several noted Bond experts at BCW6, I said that I suspected the most interesting developments in the Bond world were going to happen in the world of Bond gamming

Great! :) See you there. Sisco from AJB will be there as well. It'll be easy to find me, I'll be the only girl there (at least so I'm told so far), come say hi. :)

In regards to what ZenCat said... EA are really great people. They do know what they're up to and they're treating the press VERY WELL.
