22,500 Attended GDC 2012
Along with the four other GI staffers that recently returned from San Francisco, I'm currently recovering from the GDC madness. After a week of panels, talks, and game demos, some stats have come in regarding this year's show.
With a 17 percent increase over last year's numbers, the 2012 GDC saw 22,500 members of the gaming industry and press swarm San Francisco's Moscone Center. It was a great show, and it'll be interesting to see how the numbers compare for next year's show, which has been announced as taking place March 25-29, 2013.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
