Of all the conferences I go to each year, the Game Developers Conference (GDC) probably has my favorite vibe. Yes, the show has gotten a bit more "corporate" in recent years, with plenty of big-name publishers using the show to make big announcements or show off upcoming games. But the core of the show is still a few thousand people devoted to making and studying games getting together to talk, learn, and show off cool stuff. More than PAX (and much more than E3), attending GDC gives you the high potential for running in to someone unexpected in a hallway and having a conversation that changes the way you think about a certain genre, or stumbling upon an indie game demo that shows you something you've truly never seen before. For that, I hope the show never changes.

Two conference-goers enjoy some classic Combat action at the retro arcade set up in the hallway of West Hall's second floor. I thought the ugly '70s couch was a nice, authentic touch.Kyle Orland
