Games narratives\, structures and controls have got to a level of complexity that offers new ground for inventing and developing different methods of interacting with games. To be successfull\, in such a crowded and competitive industry\, games developers must consider the context of experience. Unlike traditional software\, where more traditional performance metrics can be applied\, measuring experential dimensions such as 'fun' and 'playability' becomes a daunting task. Games are a tremendously varied set of applications\, defying a one-size-fits-all approach. Even a broad and relevant concept such as flow falls short of capturing all classes of game experience. 'Play' will go beyond simple usability issues exploring different dimensions of User Experience that make games enjojable. Use8 events are informal and tend to create an open atmosphere conducive to discussion and networking. A good mix of creative businesses\, professionals and students are expected to attend. The event will be held on the 29th of August at the Jurys Inn Hotel - Brighton UK. The event is free to attend but you need to register.

The first ever CFDevCon was in November 2006 and was started by Russ Michaels. His original goal was to bring to the UK what the Americans had been enjoying for years through cfunited\, cf:objective and other ColdFusion related conferences. Like many developers Russ either did not have the time or the money to make the trip to the USA for these conferences\, so decided to make his own. Thanks to the membership of his existing community CFDeveloper\, getting the word out was not too difficult. The first CFDevCon was a resounding success with around 200 attendees\, which rivaled the first ever cfunited in the USA. This was quite a feat\, considering how tiny the UK is compared to the USA\, and how few developers we have in comparison.
