SB Games 2008

The past 10-12 of November, the 7th Brazilian Symposium of Games and Digital Entertainment, took place in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brasil.
This is an event that is organized by the academic environment, this time by the PUC Minas and UFMG universities. And all universities that have some sort of involvement in the videogames industry participate too. It also has the support of the SBC (Brazilian Computing Society) and ABRAGAMES, the association of Brazilian game developers.
This year we were among the 600 attendees, and went to a lot of interesting conferences and workshops.  The award ceremony on the top of a morro, and the “Festival de Jogos” were very fun too!
Sony, Ubisoft and Microsoft, are some of the international companies that were there.
Rio is the city chosen to hold the event next year.
