Professional game designers whining...
« on: March 13, 2005, 03:10:44 PM »
Carrying on my recent tradition of vaguely keeping track of what the real world's up to...

Some sort of bizarre conference transcript here, via, uh... yeah, BoingBoing.

Whatever exactly it is, I'm sure a fair number of you wouldn't want to miss it.  Especially the assembly language wizards in Sweden.
