The popular CTRL, ALT, HACKED series on the Cybercrime Magazine Podcast covers the latest hacks, breaches, and breaking news stories from the video game and entertainment industry. Our hosts, Paul John Spaulding, Kyle Haglund, and Sam White, will be at GDC Festival of Gaming Mar. 1-5, 2027 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. A quick overview of this iconic conference:
Where It Began
GDC began in 1988 as a small, peer-to-peer meetup of game developers, literally in the living room. Built on curiosity, candor, and shared problem-solving, those early gatherings became the definitive annual meeting place for professionals who build interactive entertainment.
How It Grew
Through the ’90s and 2000s, GDC became the global destination for technical learning, iconic postmortems, platform shifts, and industry-wide dialogue – adding cornerstones like the Independent Games Festival (IGF) and the Game Developers Choice Awards (GDCA) .
Where It Is Today
GDC Festival of Gaming is the modern expression of GDC’s original spirit: a five-day, city-wide celebration built for how games are made now. The Festival brings the full B2B game-making ecosystem together to learn, connect, and celebrate – with community at its heart.
Business Hall
For the first time in 2027 there will be a new Business Hall at Moscone West, built specifically for meetings, networking, partnerships, pitches, and getting business done. The CTRL, ALT, HACKED media team will be roving around the Hall and interviewing ethical hackers and others at the intersection of cybersecurity and gaming.
