rAge Cape Town has come and gone and now it’s time to reflect on it all.
The event was certainly not up to the scale and content of its Johannesburg cousin, and while I have said a fair amount on it all in an article on MWEB GameZone, I should point out that once rAge hits year two next year (and by all accounts, it will be returning), you can expect it to really hit its stride.
I was privileged to be able to work with some fantastic people over the weekend to bring the ASTRO Gaming Cup to life, so in that regard, it was an absolute success, but I am conscious of the fact that some didn’t see the value in their entry fee. It might be that the immediate value is not evident, but the support shown will mean Cape Town made itself known and that might be the real reward for your spend.
Anyway, if you missed out on rAge at GrandWest Casino and Entertainment World this past weekend, here’s the coverage, photos and more I could find from elsewhere. I will return and update the list as we discover things out there on the world wide web.
