Fighting Game Community Panel
MarkMan, Gootecks and James Chen, three big names in the FGC will be hosting this panel on Saturday at 5PM in the Arachnid Theatre.
As the growth in competitive gaming and eSports rises, one community is primed and ready for the spotlight: the fighting game community. Influenced largely by the success of games like Street Fighter 4 and Marvel vs. Capcom 3, the fighting game community has grown into a cottage industry with members planning and organizing their own events, content producers streaming live and on-demand footage and prominent members getting hired by major developers based on their accomplishments in the community.
Join community leaders for a discussion about the current state of the FGC and its major events and projects, as well as the what the future may hold for the growth of the community.

This seems like an interesting panel to attend, hopefully it'll be recorded in some capacity so that I can watch it too.
