Intel Extreme Edition Challenge 3

Posted by Antmoo at 09:55 4/11/2004.

The Intel Extreme Edition Challenge 3 has just been anounced, and will be taking place on the 3rd - 5th December. The event will be held in central London and there are rumours circulating that there will be something big to do with Counter-Strike taking place there, more information will be made known in the next couple of days. As the event has just been announced there isn't any sign up information available yet, but I am informed this will be made available soon. There will be a BYOC area hosted by Jolt.

The big twist this time is that Counter-Strike will not be used for the showcase games, Painkiller will. Not only that, Painkiller players will have the opportunity to win a place in UK team, Four-Kings. There will be online qualifiers leading up to the event, and the winning player can expect to receive the following:

4K's film maker, Simon Bysshe will be on hand as usual to film the proceedings, he had the following comments on the event:

"I really can’t wait to see this event take place. The previous two events were excellent for both players & spectators. I encourage everyone who can to attend the event & enjoy the atmosphere. I wish all the players the best of luck."

If you think this isn't particularly CS based then I am just giving you an overview of the whole event, we will of course keep you posted on any news about CS activities at the event.

I can imagine Painkiller online being good fun, but after a while the single player got unbelievably boring.

Although bunny hoping around a huge map while being chased by like 50 zombies was pretty funny! ;D [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

PK isn't anything like q3, apart from it being DM.. its more like the first one in terms of movement, but even then not as fast or aim-dependant [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Just to answer the questions in these comments:

The BYOC area is being handled solely by Jolt. Landed has nothing to do with the BYOC area. This is *NOT* A Landed Lan event.

We wish Jolt the best of luck. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
