**Update:**If you have GDC Vault access you can now watch the video. GDC has just released the schedules for this year’s show, which is set to go exactly one month from now.

If you’re headed to GDC in March I’d love to catch up with you. I’m hoping that Microsoft has some sort of XNA meetup again, but if they don’t then I’m sure we can come up with our own. Last year it was at the Microsoft booth at the entrance of the main hall. The time or location for the speech hasn’t been announced yet, but it will be 60 minutes, and discuss the ins-and-outs of the Uprising. Anyway, here’s the blurb from Gamasutra: ...
UPDATE: Thanks @BigBossBenGilbert for the photo! Headed to GDC Europe? Why not come take a gander at the panel I’ve been invited to attend by Deejay of Indie City. Taken straight from his page: I’ll be hosting the Indies’ Got PR Talent panel at GDC Europe on Monday 15th August, 12:40pm. I’ll be joined by games press veterans Mike Rose, Christian Nutt and Keith Stuarterr, someone else who’s yet to be officially confirmed (That’s me!). We’ll be going through various indie press releases, screenshots and videos, highlighting the best and worse examples. All in the format of the [INSERT COUNTRY HERE]’s Got Talent gameshow, which should add extra mirth into the mix. After dissecting each, the panel will be giving their expert opinion on how indie developers can make a better impact with their PR activities.
I’m off to my first GDC Europe and GamescCom event, . I’ll be there from Sunday 8/14 – Sunday 8/21 and staying on the north side of town. If you’re there and would like to say hello, get in touch with me! If you’re an Indie developer, come by this event hosted by GDC at Club Diamonds in Koln on Tuesday evening. I’ll be there to support the Indie Games Summer Uprising. ...
I’ll be attending my second GDC conference this year. I’ve recently received my press pass as a member of the Armless Octopus. I plan on staying the full week this time, most specifically for the UDK game track. I’m also scheduling an XNA meet up for XNA and Xbox indie developers, so if you’d like to join us, feel free to contact me.
