GamePro Culture Club Podcast -- Why we should (or shouldn't) be at San Diego Comic Con right now

GameSpot’s Sophia Tong snapped this picture from the top of the CBS/GameSpot booth at San Diego Comic Con 2010.

AJ checked and by some accounts, she’s right about the Comic Con attendance despite not having an official headcount yet. Remember to rate and comment on our podcast on the iTunes page and if you haven’t gotten your PAX Prime 2010 passes lined up, you might want to get on that before you find yourself in a Comic Con situation.
