I hadn’t heard of the OGDC, which was announced at the end of August, until today. I wonder whether CMP acquiring Austin Games Conference strengthens or weakens the appeal of OGDC. I tell you one thing I like about what I’m seeing from OGDC so far though: Reasonable pricing. Early bird pass is only $195. You can submit an application to speak here. I’m not sure if I will or not. I’m a speaker at GDC again this year (meaning free admission), but that’s local for me and doesn’t come with the cost of a plane ticket and hotel rooms attached to speaking. On the other hand, I’ve actually never been to Seattle and this might be a good excuse (not that one gets to actually see much of a city when one is there for a conference) to go.
