OnLive CEO Speaking at 2010 D.I.C.E. Summit

OnLive, which recently went into open beta and gained more funding, will make its presence felt at next year's D.I.C.E. Summit. OnLive's CEO Steve Perlman is one of several presenters on the initial list of speakers revealed today. The streaming games service is supposed to launch this winter, so hopefully by next February we'll have a good sense of the impact OnLive will (or won't) have on this industry.

The rest of the initial speakers list for the 2010 D.I.C.E. Summit is as follows:

• Dr. Susana Martinez-Conde and Dr. Stephen L. Macknik, Laboratory Directors at The Barrow Institute, whose research and outreach on the neuroscience of illusions have been written up in hundreds of media stories including  The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and  Wired, as well as being on NPR and were recently filmed for the Discovery Channel
• Ken Doroshow, Senior Council, Electronic Software Association, former Senior VP, Litigation and Legal Affairs, Recording Industry Association of America, and senior counsel to the United States Department of Justice
• Matias Myllrinne, President of Remedy Entertainment, known for their work on Max Payne. Remedy’s Alan Wake is the new psychological action thriller coming to Xbox in Spring 2010
• Professor Jesse Schell, Carnegie Mellon University, who teaches Entertainment Technology, specializing in Game Design, formerly Director of the Walt Disney Imagineering VR Studio

“Our program for 2010 is fast becoming the most prolific line-up we’ve ever produced,” said Joseph Olin, president of the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences (AIAS). “From the industry’s most gifted minds behind some of the greatest entertainment properties, to leading edge thinkers steeped in the nature of creativity, there will be a lot to talk about at this year’s Summit.”

The D.I.C.E. Summit will also feature the 13th annual Interactive Achievement Awards ceremony on February 18. Comedian, actor and gamer Jay Mohr will host the event for his fifth year, and the Independent Film Channel will be streaming the Awards, as well as filming the show for a TV broadcast to follow.

The 2010 D.I.C.E. Summit will be held at the Red Rock Resort in Las Vegas, February 17-19, 2010. Registration is now open at the official website.
