London is off]]>http://www.joystiq.com/2009/09/18/gameon-london-is-off/http://www.joystiq.com/2009/09/18/gameon-london-is-off/http://www.joystiq.com/2009/09/18/gameon-london-is-off/#comments
HMV's GameOn! London event is officially off with the official website making the cancellation expressly clear. Ticket holders will be refunded for the event, which was to occur in November, after already being delayed from June.

For an event that had several big publishers allegedly committed to the show when it was first announced, organizers obviously ran into some major issues. Perhaps the Eurogamer Expo -- also partnered with HMV -- which takes place at the end of October, was just more attractive.

London delayed until November]]>http://www.joystiq.com/2009/06/10/gameon-london-delayed-until-november/http://www.joystiq.com/2009/06/10/gameon-london-delayed-until-november/http://www.joystiq.com/2009/06/10/gameon-london-delayed-until-november/#comments
The GameOn! London event, which was set for next weekend, has been moved to November. The public event will now be held at Earls Court on November 14-15, right in time for some holiday showing offage. Those who bought tickets for the June show can now receive a full refund or receive up to four complimentary tickets instead. Where's Monty Hall?

Show organizor HMV tells MCV that the event was moved so it could become "bigger and better." Scheduling the show within the impact radius of E3 likely didn't help the expo garner any attention.
