GDC: The evolution of Will Wright's keynote title

I'm finally able to begin to process the contents of Will Wright's keynote speech from Thursday, titled "What's Next in Game Design?" Well, it was called "What's Next in Game Design?" before being changed and then changed again. Like the rest of Wright's speech, the naming process was a twisty maze of ideas. More thoughts on his keynote later; for now enjoy how it began...
That would be an understatement, if he didn't thoroughly convince me his exhaustive research resulted in proportionately brilliant ideas.

So you'll have actual news of the Keynote up soon right? I am pretty excited for more info on Spore.
This feels like an amazing year for gaming...Hopefully It doesn't dissapoint..

Is there somewhere i can take a look at this keynote (like last years... in video.)?

Good question, Majestic. Is it also possible to watch a video of Satoru Iwata's keynote speech? I hope someone that attended the event got it in video, same with Will Wright's.

Majestic XII,
I wish. There's nothing yet, but it'll be very tough to distill what he had to say in anything short of a video.

I saw the keynote, damn it was hilarious and very informative. I loved every minute of it.
Anyway, as far as I know, the IGDA video records every keynote and many of the lectures, roundtables, and panels that occur each GDC and then either put them online for registered IGDA members, but all of them get put on a CD (or DVD, not sure) that's sold at the next years conference, going for $15. That's as much as I know.

For Will Wrights Keynote Last year, search for 'spore' on Google video. There is a lot of Spore footage on there. I just checked it out, and there is some newer looking stuff that wasn't there before GDC either.
