GameAxis Versus event! Where Gamers Unite!

Introduction

GameAxis is a prominent MultiPlatform Video Gaming Magazine published in Malaysia and Singapore. Collaborating with KDU's new Video Gaming Development courses and other prominent companies such as TM Unifi, Cubizone, SONY Computer Entertainment and Evernew.

By their powers combine, GameAxis Versus was born. Versus was held on Sunway Pyramid for two days. (23rd March and 24th March).

According to KDU, their aim of the event is to have fun and to push their new game development courses.

Major companies such as Cubizone, promoted their newly launched expansion for Forsaken World, Sky Age. However, only the showcase of the game was available, gamers were not allowed to try the game on the spot which most people will find it quite disappointing.


Author's Professional View on the Event

On the surface, the event looks grand. The amount of people flocking around the floor attracted more crowds.

On a gamers' perspective this event is completely perfect. What can you ask for more, seriously? There are prizes to be won for free. There are enough games, not to mention most of them are the latest game available in the market for their own genre.

There is FIFA 12, Tekken Vs Street Fighter, Sky Age, COD: Modern Warfare: PRO MOD and it's all free.

This is a gamer's heaven.

How about the other major companies? Well, to put it bluntly. They can hang themselves for the poor respond of the crowd due to their attention being shifted to all the awesome video games.

Now, on the in-depth coverage side, major companies that involves in product sales suffered a great blow on sales due to poor respond of the crowd.

According to Wong, a Unifi authorized sales personel, mentioned that the crowd is massive, however, most of them are only interested on the game only.

Selling is not really advisable during an event, especially if the event is free. It just defeat the purpose of the free event itself.
