Forgoing its short-lived digs in Los Angeles, California, this year's Classic Gaming Expo goes back to where it all began in Las Vegas, Nevada. Held July 28 and 29 at the Riviera Hotel, organizers cited Vegas' "amazing and numerous" tourist attractions as well as input from attendees of previous expos as the impetus for CGE's return to the city of neon and fantastic plastic facades.

Ten years running, the Classic Gaming Expo sees devotees from around the world congregating around various exhibits -- including the world's largest and most comprehensive video game museum --, playing classic (and modern) games, and meeting the luminaries of video gaming's past and present, including such notable personalities as Steve Wozniak, Nolan Bushnell, Ralph Baer, Al Alcorn, Jay Smith, David Crane and various celebrities with a penchant for the classics.

The Classic Gaming Expo is open to people of all ages. More info at www.cgexpo.com.
