Welcome to week three; CompSoc's event this week is our first talk of the term!

Game Development ================

Speaker: Richard Fine

Thursday 30th October, 20:00 Roy Griffiths Room, Keble College

Richard 'Superpig' Fine, of gamedev.net, is coming to give a general overview on game development. He's open to questions on whatever tickles your fancy, and so far we've had interest in various new input types (for example, the games played using EEGs, exactly how far hardware can go, some interest in how to get started in the whole area of game development, and even some interest in why cheats are around in games.

For topics like these and more, come along on Thursday! A gaggle of CompSoc people will be at the Keble Porter's Lodge to point you in the right direction, as usual. Events this and next week are still free to non-members, so do come along - we'll be happy to take any membership forms off your hands.

As usual, we'll be wandering off to a local pub after the talk to wind down the evening.

One other point I'd like to make is that we have a compsoc-jobs list where we post the various jobverts we get sent; the archives are public and available at

http://lists.ox.compsoc.net/pipermail/compsoc-jobs/

You can also subscribe to the list at

should you want to get news of job openings as they happen.

See you on Thursday, hopefully!
