    Charlie burnt it down. Cory got drunk then arrested. Max went for a burger and missed it all.

    Honestly, no idea yet. Haven't seen Charlie for several days. Cory will probably drop by and say how it went.

    Yeah hopefully, I also noticed that there hasn't been any twitter updates for past 5 days... I am guessing Charlie does that?

    Betting they did a prototype demo of dynamic infestation and it escaped the computer and took over the convention centre. Now the CDC has locked down san franciso and the USMC is going to have to go in and fight the aliens.

    Clearly this is the only rational explanation.

    You know they were just partying for Mardi Gras the entire weekend... that's where they first got the idea for using "flash" in their game.

    Hey anyone know where we could get our hands on Charlie's talk? That would be awesome... I know certain members of the press were able to record things and get special permission for uploads.

    Heh. It was awesome! So many great speakers and talks and so much to get energy from.

    It's a great time of year for us to take a step back and think about where we're going and think about games in a larger context than our day to day work and struggles. It was a total blast!

    I'm already looking forward to next year.

    the most interesting part of games in a larger context i ever heard was from you charlie.
    believing that gaming could change the world.

    have you ever written down your theory?
    i would be very interested in reading it,
    because i am in the gaming scene (and i was in the business too, by building up a gameserverfarm from scratch)
    since 1995 and it consumed so much time
    of my live :P

    so i would be pleased to read more about it!


    WB Charlie & UWE folks!
    lets work - you have a game to release :P

    Nice to Hear/Read that you had a good time!

    Did you speak to any other game developers?
    Markus Persson (Mojang) had done quite well in the IndieDB with his game Minecraft and he went to the GDC as well.

    But damn is Markus Persson rich!
