London Games Festival 2006 - Aug 20, 2006 19:27
A new event that will run from the 2nd to the 7th of October. Open to both industry and the public alike it looks like it could definately kickass.

The London Game Career Fair will also take place at the same time and location si Tiz, you need to get you' re ass down there and pimp yourself.

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

Just had a quick skim read.... All the games showcases are like 15 mins away
from me!!!!

THIS IS GREAT!!!

In actual fact, I could attend ALL events, switching between each one!

Could this become the new E3??!

Why on EARTH does it have a tick box for " Playing films and watching games" ?
Oh, I gedditt, they' re are trying to be zaney and quirky.

I hope there aren' t weird women there that talk to us like we are 5..


What happend tiz?

I suppose if you were, you' d pay money to fly ALLL the way to London
wouldn' t you?

Don' t worry, no-ones forcing you to be interested.. But the fact that you took the
time to post that must show you' re a little bit interested... Not even a tiny bit?

No?

C' mon, you musta read the WHOLE article to arrive at that verdict... unless you..
didn' t..

Hey.... isn' t it like 6 in the morning there? So dedicated to wake up and that' s the
first thing you want do is post your distaste about something...

You don' t sleep do you?

We had like a electronic show here in stockholm once.
And they had like a huge area with games/movies etc.
Well it was 2 months before zelda was out in Sweden.
And they had imported like 15 americans consoles with zelda.

I had to stand in line for 50 min to be able to play 5.

oh...what a great memory
And yez Zelda 64 was as amazing as i dreamt it could be.

This sounds good, i' ve been reading through it, and it has completely caught me
off guard as I was planning on spending another year developing my projects
to " near complete" status... Now I am working round the clock to get at least
something done that I can give them a reference to...

Will these guys be established developers? Or people that worked on games like
" Enter The Matrix" ?

Anyone else as excited about this as I am?

In actual fact, will this event run each year from now on? Or is this just once in a
lifetime?

Quez, I don' t think a plane ticket from Stockholm to London costs very much. If you' re very interested you should go there for just a couple of days or so.

If you are closer to Germany you could also go to Leipzig Games Convention this coming week (Kikizo is going). It' s bigger, better and more important than London Games Week now.

I wouldn' t put it past them. But really they need to make a big buzz between now and launch and get some super hot exclusives that are not rumoured to be going to other platforms, so Sony have something to brag about..

Hell i' d be happy with team ICO' s next game snippet

Could this become the new E3??!

I think there' s going to be tons of conventions like this trying to vie for the top spot now that E3 is dead. (don' t even tell me it' s not, that hotel crap counts for nothing!) I' d be happy with three or so smaller conventions with different focuses spread out throughout the year. That way we don' t have to wait for an entire year for major gaming announcements.

In the end though it' s gonna mainly depend on developer and other industry support, they' ll decide which expo/con/event is going to come out on top.

Starts tomorrow doesn' t it?!

Excellent.
