So, yes. Even here I am the official tournament lady lol.
After speaking with our fearless leaders here at ReMag, she and I have decided to conduct the very first tournament for this site. Since the game that a majority of the people on this site play is Black Ops, at least at the moment, this will be the platform for the first tournament. There will be many tournaments on this site in the future, probably averaging to about one small one a month and a large one every three months or so. There will be multiple tournaments for different games.
Potential games for future tournaments are:
✗ LittleBigPlanet
✗ Black Ops (Zombies & MP)
✗ Red Dead Redemption
✗ Mortal Kombat
✗ Madden 12
✗ Street Fighter
..as well as some games that have not yet been released:
✗ Uncharted 3
✗ Resident Evil 4 [Mercenaries]
✗ Operation Raccoon City
We may even do tournaments for non-ps3/xbox games, like Words with Friends, Texas Hold 'em Poker, etc.. All for iPods or PCs.
There will also be
prizes for these tournaments, but not all. Prizes can be things like:
✗ GameShared Full-Length Games
✗ GameShared DLC for the Game supporting the tournament
✗ ReMag T-shirts
✗ Colored Names on the Forum
✗ Free Subscription to Playstation Magazine
✗ iTunes/PSN GiftCards
The first tournament will probably take place next weekend, with more information to follow. This is just a heads-up of things that are to come. I'd like to start seeing who is interested for this first tournament. Listed below are the basic details of the tournament, with prize, date, and a few other things still pending, til I speak to MKS.
FIRST TOURNAMENTGame: Black Ops
Mode: Wager Match
Players per Match: 4, top 3 advance. [Each Round]
Date: Next Weekend [September 10th-ish)
Wager Matches will be randomly chosen, as well as your opponents. You could play Sharpshooter, Gun Game, Sticks and Stones, or One in the Chamber, but you will always be playing four people, with the person in last place getting eliminated.
The more people the better. Who cares if you're terrible? I SUCK (and I mean, really really suck!) at Wager Matches, but I'm still gonna do it and probably lose the first round, but it will be fun and competitive and I at least want a shot at the prize.
Let me know if you are interested. Sorry for the long, informative message. I think this could be really fun.
