It is amazing for such conferneces to notice game audio like that.

It is great news that a major videogame event such as MIGW, concentrating on many aspects of the industry, hosts a two-day set of talks and workshops about videogame music. What’s even more great is that the event was sold out both times it’s been organised, showing a growing interest of the gaming community in everything audio.
