Embracing The Fringe - Edinburgh Gets Games

Thanks to GamesIndustry.biz for its report on last week's Edinburgh International Games Festival, as the author suggests: "Nowhere.. has the maturing of the games industry into a fully fledged member of the media family been more obvious... as interactive entertainment returned to the Scottish capital's world renowned festival for a second year." The article continues: "If we were to pick one element of the EIGF to single out for special praise, it would be the Game Screenings programme... a chance for the public to see the people behind the biggest upcoming games and to put a friendly, human face on the developers who create the entertainment they're so passionate about." LoadedInc also has significant coverage from EIGF, also recently mentioned on Slashdot, "detailing the best of this year's discussions... along with audio recordings of the sessions."
