Australians Unite! - EB Games Expo 2011

[mcfar45]

Seeing as how there are an increasing number of Aussies on Team9000 I was thinking maybe all of us Australians could meet up at/go to the EB Games Expo being held on the Gold Coast on October 15th and 16th...I know for sure that I will be there...

The event website is http://www.ebexpo.com.au
