The gaming world needs a conference to take the place of E3 and GDC may be it. A large show can only help the gaming industry. Maybe they will make better games as a result.

Thanks to back-to-back, fall-season releases of three next-generation video game consoles--Microsoft's Xbox 360 in 2005, Nintendo's Wii and Sony's PlayStation 3 in 2006--the industry no longer needs to use GDC to hype the eventual emergence of those machines. The era of the development for consoles is maturing. And in that context, the theme of this year's GDC is "taking control." To Moledina, that means two things. First, it's a literal reference to the new era of game console input devices, such as the Wii remote and the PS3's Sixaxis motion-sensitive controller.


Yeah because the "Sixaxis" controller that the PS3 uses is really revolutionary.
