Usual line-up includes Halo 3, Cod 4, PES2008/FIFA 08, Frontlines Fuel of War, Gears of War - all include individual prizes etc (games, consoles, hardware)

Hope to see you there - register at www.worldgamerlive.com

Cant find much info on the site regarding the gametypes that will be played?
I know a good few people from galway that would be interested in Halo3.
Team slayer 4v4? Are you using MLG v4 maps and gametypes? How much is team entry?

While I don't have the answers for these, if you add "Copernicus 1" to your friends list, he will be able to help you.

Hyzepher

The main tournament will be the Halo 3 4v4 - MLG rules. It's €35 per man for the whole day, for all tournaments (12 noon 'til 12 midnight)

Good luck with the event.

So far, I'm barely interested... is there a list of all the game tournaments at the event on the site? Will there be driving games?

FIFA 08 and PES2008 tournaments are tempting for sure... Would like to play Vegas 2 aswell.

You'll be able to compete in most of the tournaments.

Just a reminder that the event is still on for next Saturday.

Im home from Flordia on the Wednesday and I have a mate who will be highly interested in this.
Not to mention myself and my brother and he has a load of mates from school who play these games.

No idea of skill levels or whatever, but that aint important.

Lucowarrior is my mates gamertag.
l y t e o is mine (im a pc gamer tho but I want my clans Xbox division to take off)

Whats this event like?
Do you need your own TV's and stuff yeh? I take it you do.

Corben Dallas

Will def be there, might not catch the start. 12pm to 12am?
Count be in for some PGR/Forza, will play COD4/R6V2 if ppl need players .....will not play Gears....cause I cant play the stupid game + its gay.

how many 360's screens will be there? do u need to bring your own? seems to be good few goin for the XB360 games.

Hyzepher

You will need to bring your own stuff. We might have 4 or 5 to loan out but I wouldn't bank on it.

The skill levels are varied and most people go home with something.

You don't need to be there for the full 12 hours as there are prizes for each individual tournament.

Hyzepher

btw - we have an ad in today's and tomorrows Irish Mirror - bring that and we'll knock €5 off the entry fee.

helimachoptor

Will there be any Acecombat 6?????????

Hyzepher

There won't be an official Ace Combat 6 tournie but there will be loads of unofficial games going on all day and Ace Combat may well be one of them

So was there a good turnout for this? Who won the Halo comp?

neilk32

My team won the halo comp. Team ez. 2-0 down in the final and come back 3-2

D3UC3 J3

Which one were you. I know Junkbuster. Well done btw!

It was bloody marvelous to see HALO 3 played at that level! :eek:

neilk32

I was the one with the hat lol :P were you the guy with bleached hair ya?

jayteecork

Saw an ad in the paper for this "Bring your own TV, Console, games"

Lol. my hole. Bring my telly and my console down to me, then pay €35.
Sounds like some scam.

neilk32

well for 35e with the possibilty of winning 200e or more if your good at multiple games. for the i3 lan in england it would cost you around 120e and you have to bring your own stuff. Its all about wanting to compete at the highest level and have a bit of craic really. In my opinion its well worth 35e.

jayteecork

Come on.
Having to bring your own TV is a bit much.
What on earth are the organisers justifying €35 for?

It's not a scam. The entrance fee is to cover the cost of the hall and any prizes. It was a great day out. I've been to about 4/5 of WGL events and always had great crack and have always managed to come away with something. I paid €35 yesterday and came away with 2 brand new games after winning a competition - seems like a great deal to me tbh.

That short stack is Bewilderdmonkey! One half of "team sand", I was the guy with the lego star wars t-shirt sitting beside him.

After you feckers nailed us on Rainbow we preceded to drown our sorrows by 100%ing "my name is jonas" double expert guitar hero on the big screen...so not all was lost!
