| | Game Developers Conference 2006 |
 | | It is the main global forum where programmers, artists, producers, game designers, audio professionals and others involved in the development of interactive games gather to exchange ideas, network, and shape the future of the industry. |
 | | The Game Developer Conference has grown from an informal gathering of about 25 developers in the living room of a notable game designer 17 years ago, to a week long conference for more than 12,000 industry insiders. |
 | | Initially the GDC was focused on computer games, but the industry has now diversified to the point that it includes any number of platforms, such as dedicated gaming consoles, handheld devices, cell phones, and PDAs. |
