Here’s a quick look at some pictures of the gaming, video and traditional, at SDCC 2011; from the Exhibit Hall floor to the lounges and salons of the Marriott.

July 19-24, from noon to midnight, is Gam3rCon – a brand new gaming convention in San Diego celebrating everything from dice games to the latest video glories.

For their 2011 convention BlizzCon is selling tickets in two batches. The second and last ticket sale event will be this Wednesday, May 25 at 7:00 PM (Pacific Time).

Anime Punch is this April 22-24. It’s run by a few different principles than most. First they strive to be an anime only con, meaning they try to focus as much of the con as they can on anime. Not that they put down such things as video games, manga, j-pop, or the like just that they wish to put the ‘anime’ back in ‘anime con.’
