GDC is just around the corner, and I can't wait to head to the Moscone center in San Francisco again to check out the show floor! This year, I won't be going to the summits and tutorials, but I'm hoping to talk to plenty of people at developer booths and around the city. GDC is more about networking than game announcements, but the year-end awards ceremony usually has a surprise or two, and it's exciting to see the new tech that will drive the games of the future.
I know Epic will be showing off Unreal Engine 4 behind closed doors and I can't wait to see the reaction. Last year, the 3ds and Vita graced the show floor (though the vita was encased in bulletproof glass), and now that the handhelds are both on the market, I wonder which developers will be recruiting for future handheld projects. It doesn't seem like there will be any new gadgets on display, so the focus will be squarely on games.
I met a ton of people at GDC the past two years and I hope to meet many more this year!
