I've been doing cons for... a while ;) A true convention has guest talks, autographs, photo sessions, but also actual panel talks with other guests. Not just auctions of the same stuff at every con (which is basically waht Creation does) or the usual trivia contest. Comic Con, although massive, is a good example of a variety of things to do. Plus Creation's dealers room are pretty pitiful (at least the ones on the east coast). Wow, parties every night for everyone? Don't see that here.
Creation has also sewn up the US market, for the most part.
