    Each of the four regional heats taking place in Galway, Limerick, Wexford
    and Dublin will play host to 256 avid gamers. The Top 16 players from each
    regional event will attend a grand finale in Dublin at the Irish home of
    Xbox 360, Microsoft's Atrium Building Sandyford, Dublin 18 on Saturday, 23rd
    September. The dates and venues for the qualifying tournaments are as

    committed to delivering a great tournament which will appeal to the Irish
    gaming community," said Martin Higgins, Managing Director, Xtra-vision.
