The Game Developers Conference Europe invites you to an open press forum with Keita Takahashi

Date: Thursday, 1 September, 2005

Time: 13:30 to 14:30

Location: Lonsdale Room, Cafe Royal by Le Meridien, 68 Regent Street, London

Takahashi-san took the game world by storm with his debut title, Katamari Damacy. In creating his game, Takahashi-san felt that there were too many videogames that looked alike, and that the videogame industry relied on sequels too much. In contrast, his game presents players with a refreshingly unique, genre-defying game design, in which the player rolls game objects into an ever-increasing ball, while working against the clock.
