GDC Day 2ish
February 21st, 2008 at 1:41 pm
Hello, checking in from my cell phone. I’m currently in the west hall of the Moscone Center with around an hour to kill.
The next set of sessions start at 2:30 and I can’t decide which session I should see. There’s a Mass Effect-related talk on the subject of dialogue that sounds neat, but Radical is going to be talking about the next-gen-ness of its upcoming game, Prototype, right next door.
After that, Louis Castle is going to be spitting game on Boom Blox, which I definitely want to see.
But until then, T-minus 50 minutes until there’s something meaningful to see.

It’s sorta like, you have to decide between what may be some obvious opinions about Mass-Effect-like dialogue trees, or what may be just a preview for a new game.
For a game developer’s conference, this sounds awfully like a promotional seminar catered to media reps. I wonder, if the press really couldn’t attend, maybe these conferences would sound a bit less like advertisements for specific products.

T-minute? Sounds like a mentally-challenged rapper…

I say go see the Mass Effect one; it sounds like it may have more interesting information. You can hear about the Prototype stuff on the internet later, most likely.

Hey Jeff, thanks for the commentary! It’s almost like being there yourself

Jeff, I think you mean ‘T-Minus’.

Yeah, Nicholas is right. It’s “T-Minus”. /slap Just kidding, Jeff. /hug
