Well, I'm sitting here at GDC and things are just about over now and I have a little time so I figured I'd post from here. It's been a nice past few days. The classic pass wasn't cheap, but it is really nice to walk into panels without worrying about what badge I have;). I think I'll do this again next year, or maybe try for a press pass if I can find time to start writing for Game Developer/Gamasutra.
It was HUGE this year, with over 13,000 people, 2 expo halls, and a separate, very big, career pavilion. I think I wound up with 8-9 free t-shirts and assorted other goodies. If I had been looking for work this would have been a great year for it!
It was so huge that it was tough to run into people, so people I knew were here I either never found or ran into only once or twice the entire time. We did see a couple of people from work and had dinner with them the past couple of nights.
There were some interesting panels, including a couple of really good ones by people from Harmonix (it really is a shame they're in Boston, and I'd never consider moving back to the northeast. The past 3 days here in San Francisco has been too close to winter for me as it is;). I'm actually glad I decided NOT to go to NY next week for spring break, since I suspect it's even colder there.)
I'm glad next week is spring break, since we just found out we have to go into work tomorrow. Oh, well. The money will help!
