Bruce Tomlin Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 (edited) I know it's not cheap ($400), but is anyone else going to the Austin Game Conference next week? I wouldn't have, except getting RIFfed means that I'll actually have the time to go to it, and I really need to do something like this just for the hell of it. I've been told there isn't going to be any classic games oriented stuff there, but I think I'm more interested in the casual games angle. http://www.gameconference.com/ Edited August 31, 2006 by Bruce Tomlin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That gets one into all four events. Why can't I get a ticket for $100 to just go to one? Dang, I'd like to go to that. Maybe if I purchased a table they'd let me in for free! heh.

It's not a collector convention. It's for people in the industry. I actually have some interest in making games, which is why I can justify it.

It's why I used the universal "heh." For me to justify the expense, my interest in making games, in the italicized sense, would have to be far less outweighed by my lack of expertise in doing so.

MacbthPSW Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 I know it's not cheap ($400), but is anyone else going to the Austin Game Conference next week? Did you end up going? I'm interested in hearing about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
