Look Ahead To Women in Games Conference

The Guardian Gamesblog has a look ahead to one of the two conferences to be held in Edinburgh this August. In the first look at the Women in Games conference, some of the headlines speakers share what their expectations are for the event. From the article: "It is not enough just to get more women making games. Game developers have long tended to make games for themselves, and the problem is that they are an atypical audience. This will be true of women too...The kinds of women who want to make videogames are rather different from the kinds of women whom I hope to attract as consumers. I'd like to reach out to female consumers who don't have any interest in making games, and just want to play them. That means thinking beyond the female developer to the female customer."
