Ubercon Console Games
Ubercon Console fills the Crystal Ballroom at the hotel! The room includes 2 DDR MAX 2 systems (4 pads), several PS2, XBox, and GameCube, all on 27" TV's. We'll have 2 DDR MAX 2 systems (Dance Dance Revolution, for the uninitiated) for DDR tournaments and open "dancing"! Come to compete in tournaments, play a new game, or just watch the action. Open gaming during any times that a tournament is not in progress!!!

You may or may not be interested in any other game types...but here is the Board Games info. Visit http://www.ubercon.com for more information.

Ubercon Board Games
More, more, more! Ubercon V will feature more of your favorite boardgames, more new boardgames, more thrilling tournaments, and more hidden gems that you’re sure to love.

We will have tournaments for Settlers of Catan, Munchkin, Memoir ’44, Lunch Money, and Ticket to Ride. As a bonus, the winner of the Ticket to Ride tournament will automatically qualify for the Ticket to Ride National Tournament at GenCon this year!

You don’t have to enter a tournament to have a good time. If you know Settlers of Catan, Puerto Rico, Munchkin, Illuminati, or Apples to Apples, you’ll have no problem finding opponents. If you really like Settlers of Catan, try out the variants and expansions we offer. Some of them are only minor tweaks to the game, while others are radical departures from the original.

Try out a new game like Gloom, Stupiduel, Betrayal at House on the Hill, Reef Encounter, Kung-Fu Fighting, Doom: The Boardgame, or Boomtown. Challenge yourself with intense strategy games like A Game of Thrones, Age of Steam, Goa, One False Step for Mankind, or Diplomacy. Or try out a game you might not usually get to play, whether they're out of print games like Robo Rally, La Citta, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, or overseas games like Schrille Stille and Falsche FuFFziger. You’ll have a great time with whatever you choose!
