| | The Asian Games Developer Summit (AGDS) 2005, held recently in Kuala Lumpur, was the first such event in the South East Asian region.
Some of the games biggest names were there such as Mike Dunkle of Valve (the creators of Half-Life and Counter-Strike), and Obsidian Entertainment’s Chris Avellone, who is the designer of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II (KOTOR II) and Neverwinter Nights 2.
Their advice was "The first thing an aspiring game developer should know is game development is not just about fun and games."
What do you think about game development in Asia? |

wouldn't buying goods or services with just your fingerprint, be the better way and more secure
way to go? I remember bringing up this topic with an actor friend of mine last year, and rig....
Man Dies From Playing World Of Warcraft
Gaming? Harmful? (160)
I was reading the paper today about a man in South Korea who went on a 50 hour binge playing World
of Warcraft and died of heart failure, caused by dehydration and starvation. Can video games become
so engrossing that it numbs all effects such as hunger, thirst, or pain? It's hard to believe
that he would not grab something to eat after playing for a little over 2 days straight. The
article said that this kind of thing happens all the time in South Korea, not to the extreme of

out. He goes on about how much money he has and how he is one of the few with a cell phone. It was
extremely fun. If you can remember, please write about funny or stupid pieces of technology you
have seen.....
