GDC less than a week away - Mar 01, 2007 00:17
I' ll be flying in Tuesday. I' ll be checking out Peter Molyneux' s keynote and will try to meet up with Epic' s guys (hopefully another photo op with CliffyB!). Is there anything else you guys want me to look into? Keynotes, booths, people, ect... My schedule is pretty much open other than a few things I gotta do for my employer.

Let me know. I' ll see what I can do.

And call him a slaphead

But seriously, the obvious thing if the opportunity arises is to ask what happened to B.C.

B.C. is gone. I read about it just recently. I can' t remember exactly what happened to it but it sounded like the whole thing was scrapped to focus on their other games.

It' s pretty cool you get to be there. Well if I was there I' d be most interested in Spore (PC) and Fable 2 . If you have a chance to get some unique pictures of these games, that would be awsome.

Hopefully we get to some nice bits of news from it, not much though its Gdc, Biggest news last year was God of War 2 on shaky cam!


....Just dont expect Bill gates to jump out on stage and Challenge Phil Harrison to a fight to the Death. Well Maybe.

Change is inevitable. Except from a vending machine.

Viva La Revolution! erm, I mean Viva La Wii!

BC has gone for the moment as Sony are using software BC not hardware BC, something to do with the Cell and the motion chip in the PS2 can' t quite remember the full story, but they are hoping that there will be an update to enable more games to be BC in the very near future...2013 or something like that....you know when the PS4 comes out.

BG and PH fight to the death in an ultimate fighting arena, now I would pay good money to see that.

Well since E3 is gone GDC will probably be taking its place as the big event this year. I' m not expecting that entertainment for everyone expo thing to be as big as they are hoping.

B.C. as in the canceled Lionhead Studios game.

Such a promising concept too. Damn!

I can' t say anything yet but it' s basically everything Fable 1 was supposed to be and then some. It' s still very early in the production process but yeah, it' s gonna be awesome.

Well if you want to know about it Gaming Age has leaked the majority of it. They didn' t pay attention attention to the lady telling everyone to keep it secret until next Tuesday.
