So Sydney finally gets a local event, but what do we get, something over-priced ($1,600) with content that is largely targeted at work-for-hire development studios from other industries wanting to get a piece of the game development pie.

So, it's either completely useless to everyone else or what we already know and couldn't care knowing more of.

Go Gametech!

Glorious isn't it? I think I'll just fly to America and get an all-access GDC pass, thank you.
