With just a handful of months to go before the annual Penny Arcade Expo opens its doors again, you may be wondering who will be taking to the stage to the deliver the August event's keynote address. Organizers have announced that the opening speech will be given by none other than 2K Boston president and creative director Ken Levine.
Says Penny Arcade business mastermind, "Obviously, Ken is pimp supreme...We're super excited to have him open up the show." Given Levine's involvement with one of last year's biggest releases as well as a sequel that already ranks among our most anticipated in 2009, we're sure he'll have plenty to talk about -- and we expect to be left hanging on every word.

I thought he looks like he's trying to intimidate someone... or is squinting at something very bright.
Wil Wheaton was pretty awesome last year, even if it was mostly ramblings on about child hood and feel good stories for gamers. I can't even imagine how awesome Ken's will be.

That sounds more sarcastic and derogatory than anything. Really - the peak of your convention's history is Wil Wheaton? Ouch.
It'll be "hard to top" Wil Wheaton? A drunk and surly Danny Bonaduce could top Wil Wheaton. Hell, a drunk and surly Wil Wheaton's grandma could top Wil Wheaton.

It looks like he's about to say, "I'm the Batman."

He mildly resembles Charlie Kelly. Oh, and if you know what that's from, +100 internets for you.
