Highlights From CES 2008: Fata1ity, Frankie J, Slash
By: Michael Kwan
No, that’s not a PhotoShop. I’m dead tired from my week in Las Vegas for CES 2008, so I’m going to keep this post nice and brief. Chances are that I’ll come back with a few other posts about my first time at the Consumer Electronics Show, but for now, here are a smattering of pictures from my trip.
The photo above was taken at the Sony Online Entertainment Poker Tournament at the Hard Rock Hotel. All attendees received gift bags and inside were a t-shirt and a copy of Pirates of the Burning Sea, one of the company’s newest MMORPGs. Near the centre is Johnathan Wendel, better known to most gaming geeks as Fata1ity. He was the runner-up in the tourney. Along the way, I also had the chance to meet Slash from Guns N’ Roses, as well as rapper Frankie J. Unfortunately, I don’t have photos of those two.
On with the rest of the pics…
Me at the CES Kick-Off Party
Greg Morgan and Danny Chang enroute to Las Vegas.
John Chow at the Pepcom Digital Experience
The UNLV Cheerleaders at the Tiger Direct PC Race
The booth babes at Creative (where Fata1ity also happened to be)
More to come…

Did I mention that I hate you?
I’m going to spit in your pho
You get to hang out with hot chicks every day… I hate you too.
I’ll see you tomorrow at pho?
Ah, didn’t know you’d be back so soon.
Yes, I will be there to spit in your pho

Did you taunt Slash for owning him in GH?
The pics that I have seen of the booth babes at CES made me jealous, as the SOA conference I attended last month had ONE booth babe in the entire expo hall.
How did you manage to have the exact same expression in both pictures?
Maybe I should have cracked a smile or did the Fata1ity “1″.
Looks like a great time, congrats.
You looked constipated while eating that sandwich.
More like deer caught in the headlights.
