    This isnt news to anyone who has heard about it already, but for those who havent ... basically 'Virgin Gaming' (Virgin of Richard Branson fame) will be running a tournament in which the winners will get 1.6 million US dollers. Seems you have to qualify online in games in order to be flown out to play live at the actual tournament (I could be wrong but thats the info I got) ... but heres the website: http://virgingaming.com/tournaments/worldwide-conquest/


    But anyways, is anyone here going to give it a bash? ... I know the odds are stacked against you as so many applying for it. But who dares wins right? ... I gather you need a squad of 4 .... who wants to join lighterguy :pac:

    Why in God's name would they only aim it at console gamers?

    Because there was almost 6-7 times copies of the game bought on console than the PC. I'd be shocked if it was on pc.

    I didn't think the multiple was quite as big to be honest...
