Your guide to London Games Conference

After a solid start 12 months ago, the London Games Conference hits the ground running this year, with a programme featuring speakers drawn from the most exciting and innovative companies in the global games market.

The event is charged not with giving an overview of current conditions, but with challenging a selection of speakers and panellists to present and discuss the future of gaming – and examine the implications for companies in every sector, from development to retail.

That is why the schedule is dominated not by the three big format holders or the top five publishers but by people like Hubertz Heiko, CEO of Bigpoint, Dave Perry, founder of Gaikai, and Jasper Smith, CEO of PlayJam.

The established companies and business models are represented, of course, by people such as Codemasters CEO Rod Cousens, Capcom Europe COO David Reeves and GameStop’s Chris Petrovic – but even here they will be talking about how their businesses and practices are changing in order to exploit their content in new areas.
Other star speakers include Q Entertainment boss Shuji Utsumi, Playfish Europe Studios’ John Earner and Playfire Founder Kieran O’Neill.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
