Asking for a friend but where is the Keynote actually located at, and can he go if he only has a Sunday pass?

Ah, that's what I was thinking about.
I was awoken this morning by very loud construction. I am way too accustomed to small town life.
I'm hyped to pick up badges today. It'll be cool to catch glimpses of what will be the show tomorrow.

I'm going to be missing watching it live. I have this stupid errand I have to do.
What are my options for watching it an hour or two after it airs?

Yup!
We are using a line app. Link in the second post.
Also technically the meetup place didn't have any food at all
We'll play a goodbye dinner by ear based on interest.
Are you talking about last year's? Because the tentative place this year has a bunch of food; granted it's pub/sports bar fare so items for vegetarians and those lactose intolerant are few and far between, but GGTP is also close by to a number of places that serve up different types of grub should people want to go elsewhere before meandering over to the bar.
Downtown and late at night I'd say your best bets for food that caters to different diets (specifically vegetarian, vegan, kosher/halal) is going to be found at one of the numerous Thai or Indian spots. There's also a great Egyptian "fast food" joint that is super cheap and close by GGTP as well.
I'm assuming it'll be archived on Twitch? If not then likely someone will be recording it and posting it on YT for clicks if Sony doesn't do it officially.

The fact that Driveclub VR is a playable demo for general admission folks is fantastic. Wasn't it only previously confirmed as a 'proof of concept' and not necessarily a retail game?

cant wait, hopefully lots of new game annoucements!

I definitely will be. I told my boss that I'll be coming into the office later today, so I'm going to run some errands now and then walk over, probably stopping to grab some coffee along the way.

Guys, I might not be able to even get my badge by 10:00 am tomorrow which is the cut off time. What happens if I show up 30 minutes later? Would I still get the badge to be able to get in?

I'll be there around noon to register.
I'm lucky, I'm just a 15 minute MUNI (local transit system) ride from Moscone Center

I don't know about a pre-show OT but the actual OT will go up 1 hour before the conference.

The email from Sony re: PSX that I received yesterday says you can pick up your badge up till 10PM tomorrow. If you show up 30 minutes late for the Keynote, however, I don't know what their policy is on late entry but I imagine it's super lax since people have to go in/out to use the restroom...

I literally came back to edit my post that I'm stupid. I was super tired last night and viewed the email thinking its 10am. Thank you.
MUNI is such a cooler name than PSTA and HART. I'm mildly jealous of your local transit system.
This is my life now.

Wait until you ride it though... you may not be :\
Fair enough; :|
This is where I usually park and plan to park for PSX. But the last time I parked there a lady paying for her ticket before me reported to a cashier she got a gun pulled out on her and $25 stolen coming down the stairwell. So beware.

For the PSX app, do we have to create a new account unrelated to our PSX registration?
finalflame
Member
Yes. There is an account for the Experience app (powered by Guidebook) you can create, but then you can also sign in to PSN in at least 1 location that I've found:
Rewards -> Profile
There is no way to "link" PSN directly to the Guidebook account. I very much doubt you will be required to have a registered PSN login for the PSVR RSVP, but it's possible we'll all hit a PSN login wall at that time, so best to login via Rewards -> Profile page just to be sure!
I have some friends trying to get in on this event now, but Saturday is apparently sold out. I feel like I read somewhere that tickets are also sold at the door but cash only. Can anyone confirm this? I've been shopping around a lot of events and all this info is jumbled in my brain.

Anyone else having trouble with the Line link? I keep on getting an invalid address.

Don't know why, I've joined the line group, and now I can't receive any new message and even can not exit the group...

I had problems, make sure it is not adding an extra special character at the end (they usually are like % and a number, e.g. "%51" will be appended to the end of the URL).

In the address bar it shows everything from the second post. I am on iOS9 and trying to view through Safari.

I had the same issue. Look closer after you copy/paste and make sure the URL in your address bar matches perfectly with the quoted link. I thought mine did but it didn't, there was some extra stuff appended at the end.
All the GAF Grub snack bags are ready to go! My awesome wife helped me pack them last night.
When you get your badges from Xenorevlis, find me in line for the keynote to pick yours up! Wanted to do something nice for the community, so please, keep your money to spend at the show!
Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Just had a burger at Super Duper Burgers. Damn they are good. I need to go back. Gaffes, if you need a burger this is it. Right on Mission St in Metreon.
Their garlic fries...
My god.
My god.
That's so awesome and generous. Now I wonder if I can and should return the favor. I wouldn't mind baking up some goodies, but I've never done things for large groups like this.

Good stuff. I'm looking to finally meeting other members of this forum tomorrow.
Edit:
I've downloaded the guide, but I guess I still have to wait until tomorrow morning to get my Sony badge to register properly.

Yikes. I'm still debating between driving or taking CalTrain (coming from San Jose). Which one is safer I wonder?
finalflame
Member
CalTrain is safe. Parking I guess is hit or miss. I usually park on 3rd/Harrison and have never had a problem (ABM Parking). It's generally in the nice part of SoMa and the walk to Moscone is ~10 minutes.

I'm in line. Going around the building now. Hype is real.
Caltrain. You don't have to bother with traffic.
I'm just using Caltrain and Uber'ing everywhere. Saves me gas, and I don't have to bother with parking.
If anyone is interested, I have an Uber code - it is $15 credit towards your ride.
www.uber.com/invite/k4aknue
You'll get $15, I'll get $15. That's a free ride in San Francisco.

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
I just went to set up most of my booth and headed back to my hotel. Heading back in just a bit after I get some lunch.
If you're in line and see a bald Indian dude with a big beard walking into the venue, holler at me!
Also had a chance to say hi to Ono on my way out this morning.

It's weird, I signed up using uber and when I try entering a promo code it says a promo code was already applied. I don't understand why. It's a totally new account too.
