GDC is about to kick off, we're live on the show floor

GDC 2011

The 2011 Game Developer Conference starts in San Francisco today, and we're there to bring you every story as it happens or, more realistically, shortly after we've typed a post about it.

GDC started as a chance for developers to discuss ideas. But like any big gaming event, it's become a milestone in the calendar for publishers to release major new info and let people try their games. We can't complain - it tends to be really exciting stuff, and every year there are still fascinating and candid talks and panels from the industry's sharpest minds.

Stay tuned to PCGamer.com and check our GDC 2011 tag to follow all our updates from the conference.
