The GDC (Games Developer Conference) is an extremely important conference for game developers everywhere. It has a long-ish history of holding these conferences for covering every possible aspect of game development for all conceivable platforms. They usually hold two days of ‘Summits’ before the main set of keynote addresses and other things start happening.

It is Saturday again, time for the weekend mood to set in and to help you along the way we have this freshly baked Apple round-up just for you. Apple has had a great week.
