It’s that time again; time to get registered for the Serious Games Summit. Early registration ends on the 2nd of October. So, stop reading this and get over to www.seriousgamessummit.com and register now, before it is too late. Remember there is always a discount for IGDA members as well so you have the potential of saving $250 dollars off of the regular price. There will be some really interesting new topics explored this year including a talk on melding games with real-world games, the serious side of esports, Jim Gee will be talking about the work he is doing with the MacArthur Foundation, Mia Consalvo will talk about cheating in games, and there is a talk about how EA's content from The Sims will be used to help improve ALICE a programming teaching environment.
