There is a Fun and Games track (which I really didn't chair - I found one speaker and apparently that's enough to get credit!). Jason and I will be repeating our talks from Portland code camp - Behold my bouncing balls and Introduction to Shaders respectively. A couple of new talks too - Jason Swearingen is going to walk through a managed wrapper for Torque that he is working on. Great if you want to know about Torque or just how to write a managed wrapper for unmanaged code. Also new is a talk about Kids Programming Language which has several games written using it. I know nothing else about this so I'll be attending to learn more. Of course there are also many, many more sessions nothing to do with games or DirectX.

I will be down there for most of the weekend so if you need a ZMan autograph or just want to talk DirectX try to find me. If you have a specific question then drop me an email and we can make arrangements.
