It's never too early to reserve a place in the next Penny Arcade Expo (PAX). It was announced today that the event will be accepting registrations as early as January 2008. The last PAX had 37,000 gamers roaming its floor. Tickets were sold out so early registration may be a good idea.

PAX 2008 will be held on August 29 to 31 and attendance is expected to double again. "Again" because attendance has been doubling ever since the first PAX. The attendance grew so large that the last event was held in the Washington State Convention and Trade Center in Seattle just to fit everyone in.

Next year's PAX will mark the expo's fifth year and will continue the tradition of game exhibitions, conference programs (about games of course), concerts, tournaments, freeplay gaming and general fun times for everyone and all in the gaming community.

Because nobody rocks the place like pros do, the Harmonix folks took the stage at PAX 2007 to demonstrate Rock Band (PS3, Xbox 360). CEO Alex Rigopulos picked up the sticks and got the gig going along with three other guys.

Before we scream our lungs out and headbang, we'll have to say that the game is looking pretty good. Mechanics seem to have been nailed down completely, allowing four people to work together with no problems. November simply can't come soon enough, since Rock Band seems completely polished and ready to rock our socks off.

That's enough intro. We give the floor to Harmonix!

Among the huge number of games that were on exhibit at the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) 2007, Assassin's Creed (PS3, Xbox 360, PC) definitely took the crowd. The video we've got here is a portion of the lengthy demo showcased during the big event.

Those keeping tabs on Ubisoft's hottest upcoming video game will find the setting familiar, because it's the same stage Jade Raymond revealed last E3. What's new here is how Altair takes different paths this time around, showing off the game's open-ended nature and fully interactive environments.

Plenty of platforming allowed Altair to reach various places in Jerusalem, before finally climbing a mighty tower then doing a "leap of faith" to the bale of hay down below. Check it out yourself by watching the embed below.

As the the Assassin's Creed (PS3, Xbox 360, PC) video fellow blogger Ryan C. posted earlier indicates, there was plenty to see over at Sony's end of the PAX 2007 event. And just in case you were wondering what else the company was featuring , we managed to pick up a booth tour video that should give onlookers (and non-visitors) a peek.

Taking us on this tour is Sony PR Manager Sheila Bryson, who briefs us on the wares her company's brought in. Make sure to keep an eye out on the moss-covered ruins and skulls that decorate the area - that's a direct reference to Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (PS3). Viewers may also want to look out for snippets of Sony's SingStar booth, and the other titles such as Lair, Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, and Jeanne d'Arc. With that said, we direct you to the 7-minute video below. Happy viewing!
