Top webmasters meet their idols at The Gathering

The Xbox Community Networks is a group of websites with official support from Microsoft. The folk behind them work incredibly hard, so, as a reward of their efforts, Microsoft invited 30 of them to a mini games convention in London. Top names were there, including Lionhead’s typically mischievous Peter Molyneux and Mike Newey, Xbox group product marketing manager, who gave a great speech about the importance of the community.

Xboxgamezone.co.uk Lisa Bidder said, ‘’we were struck all day, especially when we realized that two of the people talking to us were form Bengie’s Halo 3 development team!’’. There were huge selections of games to play, too. We played Scene it! With Bungie, and Xbox.com Acey Bongos demoed Mass Effect there was also an option an opportunity to play Guitar Hero III, Call of Duty 4 and The Orange BOX!

‘’It was great chatting to the other website owners and developers, ’’said Xboxliveaddicts.com Helene Wilson. We totally agree and hope there’s a lot more of this kind of event for the Xbox 360 in the future.
