Gaming veteran in ICA lecture

It’s about time we took video games seriously, according to veteran gaming commentator Iain Simons, who is giving a talk tonight at the ICA in London, based on his book Inside Game Design.

Simons seeks to explore and illuminate the processes and passions behind some of the world’s most acclaimed video game designers and industry legends, such as David Braben and Lorne Lanning.

He will be joined at this evening’s event by Media Molecule, developer of LittleBigPlanet, the eagerly awaited Sony Playstation 3 title, currently in development. The event starts at 6.30pm, at The ICA Theatre, The Mall, London SW1, with tickets priced £8. For further information, visit www.ica.org.uk.
