Apart from covering the World Cyber Games last week, I was able to interview some of the world’s leading game thinkers at the X Media Lab workshop in Singapore.
Here’s an excerpt from my INQ7 Infotech story.

Well, here I am back at iConnect, the lounge on the second floor of Changi airport that allows you to surf the Net and play Xbox games for free.
Just finished editing stuff for INQ7.net. I’ll be on my way to Mumbai in a couple of hours.
I’m flying to Mumbai tomorrow afternoon (with a stopover in Singapore) to attend India’s biggest gaming summit, the R. A. G. E. (Reviews and Gaming Essentials) Awards and Expo, which will be held from Nov. 25-27.
Mihir Shah, head of R&D of R.A.G.E. gaming magazine, which is organizing the event, invited me to make a presentation and launch the Indian chapter of the Asian Gaming Journalists Association. Mihir is our first member from India.
I’m excited because not only is AGJA growing, but this will also be my first time to visit India.
Anyway, wish me luck.
