If you haven’t noticed the influx of new news today, well, it’s happening. The Game Developers Conference, that is. This is the largest yearly gathering of interactive entertainment professionals, and runs from today to March 13 (Saturday) at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. Companies come together and release a lot of what they’ve been holding in for the past few months. This is when we start to hear about the stuff that will have us excited for months to come.

If you actually go, you can attend hundreds of sessions (over 400!) that include lectures, demos, roundtables, and even the Game Developers Choice Awards. Pretty much every aspect of the industry is covered, from mobile phone games to AI and game localization.

This year’s keynote will be delivered on Friday by Sid Meier, who will speak on the psychology of game design.

We do have a contact at GDC, and I’ll be doing my best to keep GamingAngels readers as up-to-date as possible on news that happens both in and out of the Moscone Center.

Can’t wait to see what the rest of the week has in store! (I hope you’ll follow along with me, as well.)
