We're delighted to announce the launch of a 3-month DEFCON
Lan tournament taking place in iGUK centres throughout the
UK. The Grand Final, to be confirmed for late August, will
be amBX-enabled, making it one of the most visually immersive
game spectacles of the year, and hosted in the world's largest
dedicated gaming centre, Omega Sektor, due to be opened
in Birmingham this June. The makers of amBX gaming peripherals,
Philips Electronics and Logitech have kindly stepped in
to help us put together a stunning prize fund of the latest
hardware and software, worth an incredible £10,000!
The league will begin this Saturday, 26th May and continue
for 12 weeks - for instructions on how to register head
over to iguk.org.
You can sign up for the league at any point during the 12
weeks and you don't have to sign up each week to be in with
a chance of making it to the Grand Final. Each week, participants
will be randomly selected via a Frag Lotto to win £50!
If after the 12 weeks you finish within the 30 top-scorers
you will be invited to attend the Grand Final at the new
Omega Sektor (Birmingham, UK), where you are guaranteed
to receive an MPMan MP3 player and complete Introversion
game-pack just for turning up! And as if that wasn't enough,
we'll also be putting £20 towards your travelling
expenses.
