Edinburgh Interactive 2010, the world’s most important festival that seeks to expand the creative culture of games and interactive entertainment, opened its registration today.
EI 2010 will take place from Wednesday 25th to Thursday 26th August, and will this year move to leading cultural cinema, Filmhouse, for the sessions and free-to-public Game Screenings.
2010 will feature a major two-day conference programme, an array of networking events, the return of the increasingly popular EI Games Screenings programme, and a dedicated area in Festival Square where members of the public can experience future video game attractions.
