I left my laptop at work
.. with the notes from the NTI event on it. Not that I took that many after all - my keyboard is a real clacker and it was a very hush-hush setup in a small, darkened cinema, so I felt a bit noisy. Also it was more demo than talk, per se, but I'll post some quotes tomorrow.
I did remember my camera, although again - darkened cinemas make for lots of overflash, or blurring. They had a pro there, I could tell because his SLR had a very loud shutter sound, so hopefully there'll be some decent pics at some point.
Meanwhile:
Pixelkill and Lorka looking suitably bemused,
Lee has a good sniff of the strange joystick before he and BlackbeltJones settle in...
.. for a good bit of gunning and piloting.
That game's bloody tough, you know.
There's probably a blog entry somewhere that goes "I felt awkward taking too many photos because my SLR makes a real racket and it was a very hush-hush setup, and my notes are a bit chaotic, but never fear - there was a real pro taking notes there, I could tell -"

It's only tough when your co-pilot plows into a wall. ;)

Hi Alice, I was at the NFT thing too. We shared the briefest of conversations about Resident Evil. Hello!
I did a big brain dump of the Goldeneye talk here:

Hello! Were you sitting next to me in the cinema?
Posted by: Alice | July 12, 2005 at 11:16
Yes, I was. Lovely to meet you.

What game is this? I never saw one of these in the arcade, but it looks very similar to the old x86 X-Wing game.
