After his stint with GameSpot in 2007, Jeff Gerstmann is raiding the airwaves as part of IGN's internet talkshow, GameSages. For the pilot show, the show's host invited Gerstmann as a guest along with other editorial big wigs such as Dan Hsu, Francesca Reyes, and Will Tuttle.

A podcast was made for those who want to hear their thoughts regarding the gaming industry. Details on Gerstmann's guesting can be found in the full article.

 

Ask the question "What makes a next-gen game?" Game developers themselves got a chance to answer that question earlier this month in GDC. Towards the end of this month, the 29th of March, it will be the game journalists' turn to offer their opinion on the edge of gaming in an exclusive, free panel event hosted by International Game Developers' Association (IGDA)-San Diego chapter.

The panel, to deliver their thoughts on "What Makes A Next-Gen Game," features:

• editor-in-chief Dave Halverson from Play Magazine;
• editor-in-chief Francesca Reyes from Official Xbox Magazine;
• deputy editor-in-chief Kaiser Hwang from PSM;
• editor Brandon Sheffield from Game Developer Magazine;
• contributing writer Paul Semel for GamePro, Official PlayStation Magazine, Electronic Gaming Monthly, and others;
• and Game Head host Geoff Keighley from Spike TV.

As the event is free, but space is limited, registration is required, via the Read link below. The event is scheduled for 6:30-9:45 PM at the Qualcomm Auditorium.
