Well, PAX is officially over. All in all, I would say it was a fantastic (and tiring) show. Many people at the show commented that the PAX 10 showcase was the best booth at the show, largely because the games were so original and unknown in comparison to what the commercial studios were showing.
I'd also like to thank the Penny Arcade organization for giving us everything we needed to run a smooth show; G4, X-Play, Gamespot, 1up, Siliconera, and everyone else who stopped by for giving us a chance to talk about the game; all the other PAX 10 Winners for being so inspiring and fun to hang out with; and finally, all the fans for taking the time to play the game.
Here are a few pictures from the weekend...

Polarity has been selected as one of the winners in the "PAX 10," a showcase of independent games to be exhibited at the upcoming Penny Arcade Expo in Seattle, WA.
Winners were selected by the PAX 10 panel of over 50 industry experts, who chose the 10 best independent game submissions based on gameplay and fun factor.
"The variety and caliber of the titles blew us away. Narrowing down the group was a challenging process for the judges, but we're incredibly proud to have these ten games as our kickoff showcase and can't wait to see them on the show floor."
- Robert Khoo, Penny Arcade

Things are starting to ramp up as the November release of Tomb Raider: Underworld gets closer. The official Tomb Raider site has been freshly updated with all kinds of news, interviews, media, etc., and Eidos has also released the new box art (which is a bit different from what Lara Croft fans are used to seeing).

In addition, 1up.com just did a week-long cover story on Tomb Raider and Crystal Dynamics, which you can check out here.
