Penny Arcade Expo is one of the few gamer shows that is seems too short.

Platform Nation was there at the final day of PAX 2008 to witness the final wind-down of this huge event.

GamerEdie Sellers was joined by a host of other Platform Nation hosts, including Chiahippo (Platform Nation), Mrs. LeftyBrown (The Married Gamers), Z3ro9 (Squad XP), InfectedPB503 (XBLRadio), BDazzler (Gamers Pub) and Platform Nation’s fearless leader, Steve519.

This panel discussion of the final day’s events also includes an impressive array of guests. Todd Howard, creative director of Bethesda’s Fallout 3, reveals a bunch of details about the game and fearlessly answers a half-hour of constant questions from the panel and the live chat-room audience.

Shawn Smith of Ninjatown also gets peppered with tons of questions about the upcoming DS game and what it’s like to go from being a game journalist to a game developer.

Finally Jeff Pobst, CEO of Hidden Path, talks about their upcoming tower-defense game, Defense Grid: The Awakening. He also gets very candid about Microsoft’s certification process and offers up insight about the development industry from a CEO’s viewpoint.
