We’re delighted to announce that Chris Satchell General Manager of the Microsoft Games Developer Group, and Peter Molyneux , Director of Lionhead Studios, will be giving us an overview of XNA Game Studio Express and looking at how we can inspire a new generation of games designers and developers. Finally Nick Burton from Rare will be giving us a deep-dive into the graphics platform realised by XNA Game Studio Express.

In addition, we’ll have technical speakers and guests from Microsoft, Rare, and also a number of UK Universities, who will be lifting the covers on XNA Game Studio Express, and showing you how to get to grips with this new technology.

There’ll be plenty of opportunity for discussion throughout the day, and we’ll close with a Q & A session with a panel comprising experts from both industry and academia.

You’ll leave with everything you need to start exploring XNA.
