I had the chance to attend PAX Prime, held August 31-September 2, 2012, and capture several board game demos, which are posted below.
If you'd like to view iOS and video game-focused videos, head to iOS News for my initial video round-up. You can also view my write-ups of the experience here and here.
I apologize for some of the video quality; I was alone and it was a little tricky to do some shots. I will attempt to have more backup in the future.
Thanks,
Brad
