SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Game Developers
Conference (GDC) announced today that early registration figures have broken
all previous records. With more developers planning to attend this year's GDC,
the Gama Network anticipates a successful and valuable experience for everyone
involved. GDC is slated to take place March 4 - 8, 2003 in San Jose, Calif.
The interactive entertainment industry enjoyed unprecedented sales in
2002, in excess of 10 billion dollars, but it was not immune to the economic
challenges impacting the world. The Gama Network attributes GDC's success in
these turbulent times to the continued importance and relevance of the
conference.
"By continuing to address issues and challenges faced by the development
community, the GDC evolves as the industry matures," Alan Yu, director, GDC,
said. "Dedicated conferences and events like GDC Mobile, the IGDA Academic
Summit and the Independent Games Festival provide real value to studio heads,
rank and file developers and publishers; nowhere else in the world will you
find this much talent, energy and expertise dedicated to making better games."
The GDC offers more than 300 sessions, which provide essential
information, diverse perspectives and inspiration to all game developers. The
conference provides an independent forum for developers from around the world
to explore possibilities for the next generation of games.
