Oh look... Apple's iPad 2 keynote is on the same day, one hour later.

 

[Brad]

If they show anything about Skyrim... I need to know.

 

[Sporge27]

Well it isn't the place games are normally announced though I will see what is around. today was mostly summits and tutorials, I got a book I've been reading signed

Reality is Broken by Jane McGonidal, she was on the Colbert report for it recently. It is up my alley due to being a book about games and psychology.

Hoping to see Notch...

But lets see parties here are amazing, I had all free drinks tonight. Thanks to facebook, and the igda Swaped some business cards,and may be something will come of it.

sigh no Notch, but I did get a Mr. Minecraft head lol.

Lets see, went around generally applying places/finding out what companies are hiring currently.

Got to try the 3DS, seems cool, but the 3D on the game I played wasn't as pronounced as I thought it would be, still cool though. I just don't wanna stand in line for a different game lol. I just tried a submarine torpedo shooting game, almost certainly a demo game. Oddly to turn around you physically turn around, you look like someone searching for cell phone signal lol.

Lots of swag, lots and lots of swag. I got a dead rising syringe pen, a wierd office toy ball thing from google, pens paper, ummm shirts, but yeah overall an interesting experience. Plus I get to say I was at the 25th anniversary GDC, so that when I am 98 and they are celebrating the 100th year one I can tell all the in my day stories I want

Oh and no skyrim... can't find any portal 2 either...

Was there anything on Rift?

 

[Brad]

Well, it seems as if we will just have to wait 'till E3 for anything on Skyrim.
