Somewhat lost in the pre-E3 buzz is the 6th Annual Games For Change Festival, currently underway in New York City.
The show has a terrific lineup of speakers, including Ian Bogost, Henry Jenkins, Clive Thompson, Lucy Bradshaw, N'Gai Croal, and James Paul Gee.
For updated G4C Festival news, check out the official Games For Change Twitter feed.

Zen: I felt Brutal Legends was a funny & beautiful look at the world of rock from Double Fines point of view. The only parts I wasn't hot for were the RTS bits as it felt forced. Otherwise fantastic.02/12/2012 - 1:34pm

DorthLous: Passed 1.5M$. And I'd also say that Brutal Legend is far from being a bad game. I just think it was a few levels under what people expected from the people working on the project.02/11/2012 - 8:25am

Technogeek: Brutal Legend wasn't bad so much as "marketing had no idea how the game actually played", causing it to suffer accordingly.02/10/2012 - 10:38pm

Re: Games For Change Festival Underway in NYC
I had been following Ian Bogost and Brenda Brathwaite on Twitter and they have been sending some updates. I didn't think to follow G4C main twitter feed. Thanks.
I wish I had been able to go to this thing. Perhaps next year.
