Aaaalriiight!
So I know many of you are wondering what's up with the lack of updates, so I thought I'd make some announcements.
First of all, the BurningLAN June date has been announced!
BurningLAN: June
June 27th/28th - 9:00pm-9:00am
Doors open at 8:30
Admission is $8.00 per personYeah, and now you're like "Uhhh... $8.00?" Yeah, eight bucks. For everyone. We're breaking it down a little better this time. Everyone will pay $8.00, and if they want to compete, they just pay $5.00 per tournament (but only for tournaments with prizes). Why? Because that way, nobody feels ripped off.
Now for the fun stuff: read on for the games!
Games for the June event will be as follows:
PC
- Unreal Tournament - All of them, from 2000 to UT3. There will be some big Vehicle CTF matches for anyone who wants to play.
- Quake - Again, all of them, including Enemy Territory: Quake Wars. We will be holding a 1v1 deathmatch for a big prize of some kind.
- XTCS - If you don't know, it's Extreme Counter-Strike, which is basically a port of Source to the 1.6 engine. I'll post a link to necessary files closer to the LAN date. We will have a big tournament in XTCS for anyone who wishes to participate!
- DotA - Yeah, that's right you warcraft-heads. We've got a DotA tournament for you.
- Beat Tran in StarCraft - If you can beat Adam Tran in starcraft, we'll give you $20. And no, I'm not kidding.
Xbox 360
- Call of Duty 4 - Everyone's favorite, apparently. We'll be holding a 4v4 tournament for prizes.
- Halo 3 - Also a classic... kinda.
Another 4v4 NOW DOUBLES (2v2), but for glory.
- Rainbow Six Vegas 2 - Hot off the shelves. Not sure on tournament configuration, but we'll git'r'done.
Other
- Guitar Hero - Oh yes, it will be epic. Most likely a prized tournament, but it depends on turnout.
- Super Smash Brothers: Brawl - 2v2 or 1v1 matches, we're undecided on that.
So drop us a comment, tell me what you think. We've got lots of time to custom-tailor it!
