After a successful first meeting of Greek Game Developers, some of the participants in gone proposal to establish Greek Game Developers Association and was chosen a temporary committee to coordinate such actions. The proposal was the natural consequence of the common finding that the game development in Greece is much more advanced stage than most believe, producing several of their top-selling titles of the Greek market, but also identifiable-and-a-successful titles international market. Furthermore, it was found that in Greece there are several groups created in the background and independent professionals with talent, but even with work experience in game development known companies abroad, who are willing to contribute its knowledge and experience. The community began to arise, the ability, enthusiasm and appetite for work and creating perissefoun and Greeks game developers are confident that from the very first steps, the joint effort of the Greeks developer for self-organization will reveal the high potential exists on our site.

Originally posted by Polarization I think Tasos is sitting at the front because he’s the most important person. Or the biggest clown. Amazing he has time to do stuff like this but recording a new up to date gameplay video from a feature complete and beta ready game seems to be too time consuming. I'd give this fucker a standing ovation alright.

Does anybody know about any of these “top-selling titles of the Greek market” Or any Greek game’s that have been identifiable and successful internationally?, or will Darkfall presumably be the first. It amazing that Tasos finds the time to be a member of this interim steering committee, considering how busy he must be already working on Darkfall at the moment, what with publishing, beta and release all set to happen some time over the next 6 months. Not to mention the PR and marketing campaign he’s sure to start soon, or has it allready started?

No matter how much and to what extent people might disagree about what Tasos actually said at these events. Nobody can deny that for someone who repeatedly insists he has so little time to do things like update the community regularly or to produce “comprehensive game play videos” he’s mentioned weeks before, due to spending all his time working so hard on Darkfall. He certainly seems to of found the time to be present at these two events, because there’s pictures of him being there, and apparently recently he was also making a presentation at a local college too. This whole thing almost seems completely farcical and unbelievable, cue benny hill music as Tasos embarks on the lecture and conferance circuit to standing ovations all over Athens! Please tell me this is not happening, is this the beginning of the end or am I just being melodramatic?
