CES 2007: Updates for next year’s event
It’s that time of the month, people. For those looking for parties to crash to after the Christmas and New Year’s festivities, listen up. We’re just giving you guys a gentle reminder of a quiet little event that’s taking place this January 8 to 11 next year, at Las Vegas, and we’re sure you guys will want to go.
The International Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2007) will be picking where the now-pwned downgraded E3 (Once again, booo! Hisss!) left off.
Now, aside from our previous reports of guest speakers like Bill Gates, Michael Dell, and Gary Shapiro, we got (by way of IGN) updates on more gamer-friendly features the organizers will be showcasing.
First up are the conferences – 175 total – being given by professionals on what’s going in gaming from the latest rends and technologies, to unique topics like “Ultimate Gaming” and “Understanding Female Gamers.”
And as for the other events:
- The Gaming TechZone: This section will be featuring several booths manned by famous game-related companies like Majesco, Gameloft, PC Gamer, Maximum PC, Game Quest, Wolfking, and QMotions. Expect more as we near the conference day.
- World Series of Video Games All-Star Festival: This Intel-sponsored event will host hands-on play on new goodies that the guys over at Xbox 360 and Fatal1ty Brands will be churning out. Attendees can also look forward to playing off again last year’s World Series winners.
We look forward to seeing just what sort of event this will turn out to be, and hope you guys enjoy the event’s 40th anniversary – about as old as some of you dudes.
The Consumer Electronics Association‘s senior vice president, events and conferences, Karen Chupka: “With the CES Gaming TechZone featuring top gaming companies across the globe, conference sessions and other special gaming events, the 2007 International CES is the global hub for the latest trends emerging on the gaming market.”
