UPDATE: An hour after going live, it looks like tickets for the event are already sold out. The queue for purchasing tickets currently reads, "All badges are currently either sold our or reserved in people's carts. If you are still in the queue, it is unlikely that you will be able to purchase a badge."

The original story appears below.

Tickets for the Seattle video game conference PAX Prime are on sale now. Multi-day passes for the conference typically sell out within a few hours, so if you're hoping to go this year (and especially if you want to stay for the entire thing), you might want to get in (virtual) line and pick some up now.

Hotel booking for the event is also live here.

The conference will run for four days, from August 29 to September 1 (which is Labor Day in the US). And you can likely expect to see first-hand a lot of the games and content that will be on hand at next month's E3 conference.

And if you're unable to make the West Coast event, you'll still have a chance come January 2015 for a PAX conference in San Antonio Texas.
