I don't know what the hell she's saying but she's my new girlfriend.

It's from a strange place... World of Tanks. I play it on an ipad. I know tanks but it has everything of a socom like feel to it. Big thing I think is No Repawn. You have lots of tanks to choose. If you want a fast one well you give up power. If you work together in the game you live longer. If not and go Rambo well you might be watching a lot. But check it out... World of Tanks...

Thought it was a bit interesting. What are your thoughts?

Found this yesterday, there was a Killzone invitational. It started last Friday and the winners have already been announced. The first link is the plug, the second is an article and video of the final match. http://www.killzone.com/en_US/blog/news/2013-12-26_the-first-killzone-invitational-friday-group-stages.html http://www.killzone.com/en_US/blog/news/2013-12-30_team-iam-wins-first-killzone-invitational.html Anyone else know this was happening?

Meatloaf and the baddest piano boogie you will hear this side of Ray Charles. And lyrics you can understand too. Those were the days...

So I am a pretty big Kevin James fan, and this was a funny ass movie. With my limited budget I am having to wait for PPV to watch some of the movies so I watched this over the weekend. Damn awesome movie if you have not seen it yet.

Ahh the good old days

Seems really similar to what is supposedly patented by UF. Was just curious what the thought on that was from the Directors?

Here's a little more food for thought. ESports is here to stay and despite the trials and tribulations experienced by players, casters, spectators, developers, publishers, sponsors, organizers, even the media, (ain't that a mouthful) people are still plugging away at it. They are still trying to find a model that makes all of the above work together to produce a consistent reliable model that meets the needs of all of the above. In some circles it seems as though everyone is familiar with professional gaming/eSports, there are hundreds of thousands if not millions of people interested in it. Step outside of those communities though and it's almost a complete unknown. Millions of gamers across the the various game genre's competing for one kind of slot or another in professional gaming, and still that's actually a small percentage. But you know what, it keeps growing. Despite the fact that there is no one keeping records, I mean historical records, the kind of things you find in Baseball, Football, or Basketball. It's still growing. There's a lot missing, things are disappearing as organizations and their websites fold, are reborn, and new ones pop up. Competitive gaming has been around for decades and much of the information about the earlier tournaments and players competing in them is either lost, or it becomes a major project to piece it all together. More than likely it's to late to find it all. There are a lot of things that can be done to make eSports better, or offer a solid path to professional play, and much of that simply does not exist today. Of course I have my own ideas about that and that's what I'm looking at, and that's what I want to hear ideas about. More importantly I want to find others that want to make this happen as well. Anyone else? Here's a little MIT video that sort of puts it into perspective.

Athletics visa's for professional gamers? Yep, it's a reality. Check out this article from NBC News. http://www.nbcnews.com/technology/score-professional-video-gamers-awarded-athletic-visas-6C10679998

The last week and a half or more have been really crappy for me. I live in Vegas, and its damn hot here. We left a couple of computer’s on when we left the house Monday before last. The A/C went down, then my daughter’s PC and mine over heated and burnt out some components. It took most of 4 days to get the A/C back and another 3 to get the parts to fix both my daughters PC and Mine. I’ve been busy with college classes since then, and I thought my troubles were behind me. Then the **** hit the fan. Specifically, Esports ****. It had in fact been hitting the fan during the entire time I was offline. It probably started just before I went offline, and I was blissfully unaware. My main concern is competitive gaming, Esports (even though I hate to call it that), and a lot of bad things have been happening in Esports lately. I decided to run through these things even if they’re a couple of weeks old, because it touches on some arguments I have had in the past regarding competition and competitive players intolerance for noob and casual players. It’s not a one sided argument either. The link below is the first part. It’s a video of supposedly “professional gamers,” team impact, at a supposedly “professional event,” going off on their opponents and the crowd of spectators and fans. Without those same spectators and fans they wouldn’t be where they are to talk the trash that they are. Their Sponsors were NOT pleased, and it looks like they’re going to lose one of their team members if it hasn’t happened already. The worst thing is that the event organizers didn’t step in to stop them, even when they started trash talking the crowd. These guys are basically cutting off their nose to spite their face. It’s not exactly E for everyone, so if that bothers you don’t watch. http://www.charlieintel.com/2013/08/12/team-epsilon-takes-trash-talking-to-a-new-level-at-umg-atlanta/ Update: End of story, Epsilon dropped the entire team, and two members have left the team. Here’s an article about it. http://www.charlieintel.com/2013/08/12/team-epsilon-takes-trash-talking-to-a-new-level-at-umg-atlanta/ In 2007 WSVG’s season opener in Wuhan China had 100,000 live spectators, that’s 100,000 people actually attended the tournament. By august that same year WSVG was burnt toast. In their last tournament they had technical problems, and the tournament was delayed for most of a day. They finished but they lost their sponsors and that was it. WSVG never recovered. I never found out if they managed to pay off the prize money, but people were complaining about that for months afterward. Sponsors have ditched their obligations for less, and organizers have screwed the pouch on that a time or two themselves. That first video in this post is an illustration of how the players themselves can screw these things up for a lot of others besides themselves. The quote below is from a Starcraft2 write-up on reddit, it’s 10 months old. I’ve included a link in the quote. If you’re reading this entire post, and going thru the links, you’ll find out why this write-up turns out to be nearly prophetic. They’re having some problems, and they’re not the only ones. Present day… MLG has no fall season. There is an invitational tournament for BOPS2 and Dota2 at Winter Park, Florida. That’s it. The prize purses are smaller than usual and the dates were conflicting with a UMG tournament schedule, no one was happy about that. The invitational will also have an impact on seeding for the next season. MLG has dropped SC2, (See the prophetic write-up above) and the rumor is that “riot games” has pulled LoL out of MLG. I haven’t seen confirmation of that yet, regardless, they still don’t have a fall season, and LoL is conspicuously absent from the invitational. I’m virtually certain that MLG is also experiencing issues with their sponsors over this. I’m coming from the Xbox community and I haven’t got a PlayStation yet. Anyone here that can tell me what games on PlayStation now, or planned for future release, have the potential for serious professional competition? I’d appreciate any comments, or explanation/discussion about it, and If I could trouble you for any links for supporting articles or video’s, that would be even better.

Here is what its looking like, I hope we see this on PS 3/4 as well

We can finally talk about it... so long we have remained silent though we did get surprised too on some of the games. What do you think, we do know it is coming out this Holiday Season and We will get to play with it at E3. Tell us what you think, and as soon as we can the Official PS Video will be added to this post for anyone that missed the 2 + hour press conference

Why can't I mark this section as read? http://www.urgentfury.com/forumdisplay.php/1074-You-Freq-Video-Comments I don't want to mark the entire forum as read, but this section is killing me. When I double click the "New" icon to make it "Old" it doesn't mark this section as read. They still show up when I click "New Post".

So we are less than two weeks away, I know you guys have been reading the rumors, but what do you really think is coming?
