- LogicBomB, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13Trust me - just because you a play a lot does not make you terribly good. I was an AMAZING Halo2 player but I only played now and then. I could consitantly win against high school children who did nothing but play 24/7. Some people play and get better the more they play, other's stagnate.
The problem I have with a GOW tourny is that if you've ever played GOW you know that it's is HEAVILY host-favored. You get an ungodly advantage by hosting - easily able to double or tripple your normal non-host scores. - TheSmokingManX, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8I don't know if that's necessarily what it means, but it seems like it would be just too easy to cheat in a tourney where you just have to climb the leaderboard.
- RegalBegal, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Well son, this is the gaming page and it is gaming news. You see, Digg.com is a user controlled site. If enough people Digg something, it gets to the front page. I'm sure there is a FAQ somewhere. Go back to drinking some hatorade little johnny. Digg it?

- PasteEater, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3The designers sited Prague as an inspiration for the "destroyed beauty" art direction for the game.
- OWNAGETIME, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5Count me in for this tourney.
- IJS209, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2oh yay!, I can't wait to play online with the pre-pubesant kids who say that i suck.
- oldschoolgoth, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I'm actually gonna sign up for this. I have a lot of fun with Gears, but I doubt I'm good enough, but it certainly can't hurt to be frustrated in a tournament instead of a pickup match. :)
- dasluvaluva, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The one problem I have is ping in Gears of War. They *really* need to show you your ping to the host when searching for games. Too many times have I connected to a game in Australia while in the U.S.
- MisurA, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Too bad I haven't found a decent PHP programmer to hook up my web site http://www.gearsofwartournaments.com that has been designed/sliced and ready to go for months.. I would have been the first site hosting legit tournaments for gears of war. By the time my sideline programmer finishes it up it will be like the 7-8th gears tournament/ladder site for this damn game..
If you are a programmer head to the forum and hola at me! - CPLPress, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0CAL's tournament - http://www.caleague.com/?division=gow
- snorkle256, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2sweet I love GoW
- daversion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Is it just me or is 'standard' accommodations with a $300 GC awfully cheap for the 4 'best' players in the US? Even the 'Pro' console with a handful of games seems a bit skimpy to me for the other 8 people considering there are god knows how many GoW players out there.
- sharly2007, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Doesnt this mean the person that logs in the most and plays the most will win. You dont really get negative points for anything in that game except leaving a game early i thought. Its not like halo where you are ranked versus other people. I could be wrong but that makes no sense for thier tournament then. It just means people who do nothing but play GoW will win, and not the best players. http://www.gwafi.com/home.html http://www.gwafi.com/links.html
- xerus, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Competitive console gaming... lol.
- IEatHamburgers, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1For a second there I thought they were going to make "Gears of War Tournament" ala "Unreal Tournament."
Submitters need to make clearer titles - if they said "*A* Gears of War Tournament announced" it would've been clear. - uberT, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0CAL is putting on a GoW tourney and offering a $5,000 cash prize. It is a $10 buy-in and preseason starts April 3rd.

- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Yeah, and they're sending people to Prague or some *****.
I thought, "Why the *****, of all places, would I wanna go to Prague?"
Send me to Paris or The Bahamas or something. - tehgentlegiant, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0@tault
practice makes perfect. - PaiZuri, on 10/12/2007, -6/+3Laggy 4 vs 4 p2p game networking.
Constant connection problems from crappy p2p connections.
50 bucks a year just play and you don't even get dedicated servers.
Shiny bald space marines.
Yawn... - vanityfarewell, on 10/12/2007, -6/+2NO MORE NOOBS!!!!!
Im definitely signing up - crillbilly, on 10/12/2007, -8/+3@Tault
The people that do nothing but play GoW ARE the best players. What exactly are you bitching about? Idiot. - nrfx, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1My chainsaw bayonet will dominate your faces!
- v3locity, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1why did this make front page? A friend of mine has already played in 2 MLG tourneys for GoW.


What is Digg?
