CGS Online: Viva la 1.6!

The most shocking news (to this rumor-ignorant blogger, anyway), was the announcement of a CGS Online project, which would feature web-based content, and, far more importantly, games that aren’t tailor-made for television, or are particularly popular in one region....

Even Better Than Missy

I found something better than watching Missy destroy people in Quake 4: watching Johnathan “Fatal1ty” Wendel do it. The rules are a little different: Fatal1ty was there to just destroy people as fast as he can. First one to...

Quick Update on Missy

I'm within earshot of the PMS-Missy Quake4 challenge, just like yesterday, and there's a scoring update. Somebody finished the two minute exhibition with a point! He's the only person to do so thus far. I'm thinking about going over and...

PMS Missy Destroys n00bs in Q4: Film at 11

Generally, I don’t like seeing people fail. I don’t watch American Idol. Dancing with the stars is for the birds.”Reality” TV just isn’t my thing, because I sympathize too much with the losers. But man, watching Missy from PMS...

LANFest: First Impressions

The first day is going to be pretty slow, but I’ll try to make you feel at home in the venue. First impressions are mixed. Compared to the CPL, the sponsors and game demos are a thousand times better....

Daily Spray (9/19)

– Organize a parade, I updated the Source rosters!  They really needed it, too. It was starting to get dusty in there. As always, if you have rosters tips, corrections, or a set “starting lineup” to send in, please do...

Daily Spray

When I first started the blog, I had a “Week in Review” section that got dumped faster than … well, I don’t know if anything has been dumped that fast. It wasn’t a bad idea, I just decided to...

CSP: Small Step for eSports, Giant Leap for CS ... Maybe

It’s time for LANDodger’s semi-regular “questions for Promod which never get answered”. We have one of these every time a big CSP update (read: every CSP update, even if it’s crappy alpha maps) is released. The 1.6 community works...

CBS and the Disappearing Quake

I scream, you scream, we all scream for a TV screen – especially when it might be showing Counter-Strike.  Everybody that loves gaming wants to see it broadcast into as many homes as possible, as long the game isn’t Duck...

CPL: Summer, Winter, Sierra

Bird had Magic. The Sawx have the Yanks. Even fictional characters like Ichigo have rivals (Kenpachi, pictured). Now the CPL finally has some, and that's a good sign for eSports.

WSVG Games

The WSVG shifted focus away from Counter-Strike for a good reason. If a seventh seed wins in a tournament, but the top six teams didn't show up, did they make any noise at all?

Two Things I Hate About You

If you want to watch the original Star Wars movie, you're expecting to see Han Solo. When Jar-Jar pops up, it's disappointing -- just like some of the links and headlines on GotFrag.
