rAge 2012, South Africa\u2019s largest gaming expo and LAN event, wrapped up at the end of Sunday, and as the hordes shambled their way out of the Coca-Cola Dome, MyGaming was there to catch up with a few of the general attendees to see what their thoughts on the show were.<\/p>\n

After finding out what gamers thought of the NAG rAge LAN<\/a>, what did everyone else think of the show itself?<\/p>\n

What are your thoughts on rAge so far?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cNot bad.\u201d – Tim<\/p>\n

\u201cNot as great as other years, not as much hardware on sale.\u201d – Ico<\/p>\n

\u201cFirst rAge I\u2019ve ever been to \u2013 very cool, a lot of different things to see.\u201d – Frikkie<\/p>\n

\u201cVery cool, definitely gonna jol the games next time\u201d \u2013 Willie<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is my first time \u2013 its very cool, nice to get to play all the unreleased games and witness all the new technology.\u201d \u2013 Cyrus<\/p>\n

\u201cMy second time here, and having a fantastic time!\u201d \u2013 Rodwell<\/p>\n

\u201cVery cool, I\u2019m enjoying it, there\u2019s a lot of shops, but it\u2019s exactly what I expected \u2013 nothing surprising.\u201d \u2013 Jacob<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the best thing you\u2019ve seen at the show, or the game you’re most excited to see\/play?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cTomb Raider\u201d – Tim<\/p>\n

\u201cHitman [Absolution]\u201d \u2013 Ico<\/p>\n

\u201cPro Evolution Soccer 2013\u201d \u2013 Cyrus<\/p>\n

\u201cFIFA 13\u201d \u2013 Rodwell<\/p>\n

Did you come to rAge last year? And if so, how is this year\u2019s show in comparison to rAge 2011?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a good show, just lacking hardware for the enthusiasts, you know.\u201d – Tim<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are some really random stands, like the Virgin Active and Cheese Store stands \u2013 doesn\u2019t really fit in.\u201d – Ico<\/p>\n

\u201cI think last year was a bit better, because we came a bit earlier last time and got to play a bit more games.\u201d \u2013 Rodwell<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is my third, it actually the same. It\u2019s a very good show, we just need more flying unicorns and things like that.\u201d – Jacob<\/p>\n

Any reason you\u2019re not playing in the LAN?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThese days with uncapped and online communities, I don\u2019t really see a reason to come\u201d. \u2013 Tim<\/p>\n

\u201cI couldn\u2019t get tickets!\u201d \u2013 Ico<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were too late.\u201d \u2013 Willie, speaking on behalf of himself and Frikkie<\/p>\n

\u201cThe LAN was too expensive.\u201d \u2013 Rodwell<\/p>\n
