It was pretty awesome, as was Keita Takahashi's speech about game development.
I wish I could have seen more, but I was busy...

Wonder if there's any dance-music connection other than 'um we need another venue... hey what about that big nightclub'...

I still remember the shame of our pub quiz group getting slaughtered, it was all in good fun though. Hopefully i'll make it to more events this year.

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> Whoa when I saw that you said it was gonna last for a month I was wondering how they would keep it going for that long but now that I see it's only going till Nov 1st, now it feels so short.

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> The first gamecity got me a job as a games designer, FACT

So although that makes me somewhat biased Ive found them both to be thoroughly enjoyable and interesting. So much so that Im rather sad that this one is only taking place over the weekend as opposed to the usual full week

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> I'm looking forward to this. I missed the last GameCity (completely forgot about it until the weekend after) but the first was good - saw some interesting talks, met some cool people and had free cake at Sonic's birthday party. What more could you want?

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> @jayntampa: Yeah. I mean, the first games, specially the third, weren't so good in terms of gameplay. But the fourth one nailed it. And many things within the story were left untold.

They were CG wizards. And they could tell a good story. Still brings me a tear to my eye everytime Abe says "The new kind of food... IT WAS US!"

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> @Ashurahori: I'd take an Oddworld movie or TV show ... I think it would translate very well.

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> @jayntampa: When he left the game industry, he said he was going to "the movie industry". I thought, "Sure, since the cartoony CGs of Oddworld were among the best parts of the game, and if you can tell the story that way, I'm cool with that.

Thing is, he's done nothing so far. I want my Oddworlds.

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> GameCity has been awesome every year and I hope to go to a few more events this time around. Maybe I'm a bit bias because I live and work in Nottingham though.

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> til "november 31st" ???? so its never going to end? (unless they changed the months around when i wasn't looking)

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> Well, it certainly has the pretensions of Sundance.

I just don't understand what this press release is trying to accomplish exactly. Am I supposed to rub both eyes, only for them to spring out cartoon-style at the proposition of a gaming conference going down in an Indian restaurant?

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> @Mike Fahey: That's awesome! The next time you're at PAX or something, you should request that they add that to the surveys they pass out to gauge attendee reactions: Do you know anyone that died at the festival?

Of course, it also has to include: Did you know them well?

@Ashurahori: I agree ... it's time for a new Oddworld game.

jayntampa

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> @jayntampa: Yes. Yes it is.

Mike Fahey

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> Hmmm...this is only an hour away maybe I'll drop by for a few days

Dannon

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> lol Is that the new benchmark for whether a games festival is successful or not? Whether someone we knew died?

jayntampa

]]> <![CDATA[GameCity 3 - This Time It's The Third]]> Fuck you, Lorne. Get back to making Oddworld games God damn you.

Gamecity '08 seems good.
