Session Name:

Make 'Em Laugh: Comedy in Games

Overview:

It's common lore among actors that Dying is easy; comedy is hard. Games have the death thing covered, but laughs are tougher to come by. This panel will explore the challenges that face developers as they try to distill a sense of humor into their games. How do you program comedy? How much do you rely on script and voice acting? Can you engineer emergent humor? A panel of the industry's wittiest developers will discuss the methods they use to get a laugh without coming off as corny.
