 2008's Game Developers Conference kicks off in San Francisco next week, but don't worry if you're not attending - Microsoft's beaming it to your living room via Xbox Live.

Microsoft says we'll be able to download breaking news from the show - all this will be free, by the way - to our Xbox 360s as of February 20 when the event kicks off, in addition to footage of the keynote address by John Schappert.

Corporate Vice President LIVE, Software and Services for the Interactive Entertainment Business. That's Schappert's job title. We had to give his job title a whole line to itself.

On top of that, Microsoft's promising brand new gameplay footage, demos, screenshots and interviews for download during GDC.

Schappert's keynote address is scheduled from 6.30pm to 7.30pm on February 20, and the Live download will feature highlights.

The keynote, A Future Wide Open: Unleashing the Creative Community, "will provide an exciting view into this year's plans for Microsoft's Interactive Entertainment Business", says Microsoft.
