Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Well, it's a meet-up for local Seattle-area game developers. If that includes you, then PM me and I can forward you details on who to contact. I think you can bring guests though. I just got invited to it myself.

So, anyone talks in particular people are going to see? I'm definitely going to the 1UP Yours one, try to get into the keynote, and the "Is Casual Killing Core Games?" panel (friend of mine from work is moderating). I haven't decided which game-related demos I want to see yet. Dragon Age is high on my list though.

Just wanted to note that that is no longer the Pre-PAX bar crawl.
It is now The Triwizard Drinking Tournament. (link in sig)

For the regular meetups, yeah it's for industry folks to get together, drink, and chat. There's a lot of us in the area. For Thursday though, folks are allowed to bring guests but I'm not sure what that means. Guests = anyone, or just fellow industry folks? This meetup is a bit different than the others (and to be honest, I haven't gone to any of the others)

I'm not Seattle based. You didn't mention that as a criteria.
Some people call Edmonton the Seattle of Alberta though*, does that count?
* - no, they really don't do this.

Actually, it make sense after seeing the booth last year. It was a big open area with 1 big display in front of a bunch of couches. They rotated what they showed in that area, between things like Mass Effect and Scene It!. Sounds like it's going to be the same thing again. There were also a ton of demo stations for various 360 games.

Welcome to the world on this side.
I'm so there.
I just scanned through the thread: a pre-PAX seattle area game dev meetup? Boo. You know what, I'm going to start my own, pre-PAX, non seattle area game dev meetup. Just to spite.
i have no idea what to expect since its my first time
be gentle...
Too bad it seems like I almost never post anymore. I'll have to rectify that next week.
