Top 10 Reasons to Attend LOGIN

#10. INCREDIBLE AMENITIES. Ask anyone who attended last year: The sit-down lunches, gourmet snacks, and fine wine are just a part of what made LOGIN one of the most memorable and superior game industry experiences in 2010. Everything at LOGIN is step beyond what you've experienced elsewhere.

#9. NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES. Whether at the classy LOGIN welcome reception, the LOGIN Business Lounge, or one of the speed-networking breakfasts, you'll have more opportunities to rub elbows with some of the online game industry's most powerful movers and shakers than any other event.

#8. FIRST-CLASS CONTENT. You'll have access to over 60 lectures, panels, and roundtables over two days, covering topics important to the breadth of the online game development world, including business, legal, production, new technologies, social games, community, and much more, delivered by some of the industry's most influential and knowledgeable speakers. Unlike other events where you just go for the meetings, at LOGIN you'll actually WANT to attend the sessions.

#7. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. The greater Seattle area is not only one of the fastest growing locations for gaming development in the world, but is already home to major game development and publisher names we know about in our daily business and leisure time. Nintendo, Microsoft, Valve, NCsoft, Wizards of the Coast, Big Fish Games, Pop Cap, and many others.

#6. FOCUS ON ONLINE. The LOGIN Conference doesn't aim to be all things to all people. LOGIN focuses exclusively on the developer and businessperson creating online games, whether they're MMOs, Facebook games, or online console experiences.

#5. SIT-DOWN LUNCHES. It wouldn't be a LOGIN Conference lunch without providing food for thought to match the scrumptious comestibles. No need to gulp down a stale sandwich in plastic wrap while standing on your feet or rush off to find a table at a nearby restaurant. At LOGIN, you can continue the dialog and networking during the classy sit-down lunches, included with all full conference passes.

#4. INTERNATIONAL VIEWPOINTS. The online game industry is a worldwide business, so why shouldn't the conference reflect that melting pot of technological and cultural viewpoints? To that end, we have influential game developers and business people from around the world coming together to share their unique views as both attendees and speakers.

#3. GREAT VALUE. For a mere $595, you are treated like a star at LOGIN. For less than $300/day, you get access to every keynote, lecture, panel, roundtable, snack break, gourmet lunch, evening reception you are willing and able to attend. LOGIN even offers one-day passes for local attendees to minimize their time out of office and maximize their value.

#2. QUALITY OVER QUANTITY. The LOGIN Conference brings CEOs, lead programmers, directors, VPs and Creative Directors into one venue for one event. Some events are filled with wannabes, poseurs, and hangers-on; not so at LOGIN, which consistently brings together experienced senior game industry developers. Not everyone time has the time and interest to pick a needle from a haystack. For those people, there is the LOGIN Conference.

And the #1 reason to attend LOGIN:

#1. THE PEOPLE YOU WANT TO MEET IN ONE PLACE.
