Gathering of Developers at Ground ZERO

Gathering of Developers at Ground ZERO is today’s industry move, and it is one more reminder that the games business is growing up fast, whether it is ready or not.

Gathering of Developers will be presenting the latest versions of its hotly anticipated games at the Cyberathlete Professional League’s Ground ZERO event at the Puck Building in New York City from September 9-12. Ground ZERO will host the finals for the Quake 2 Female Frag Fest, an official CPL Quake 3 tournament, a massive LAN, exhibition booths for hardware and software companies, workshops, and more.

It is business news, sure, but these moves shape what games get made, what stores carry them, and who is still standing next year.
