Regional finalists named in first global Xbox Live contest
Hellerup, 27 May, 2005 - Qualifying finalists from 22 out of the 24 Xbox® Live™ regions around the globe have been identified and will advance to the championship round in the world’s first global Xbox Live “Halo 2” tournament. The United States and Japan regional contests are currently underway, with the winners being determined by the end of May. The winners from each locality will vie for the honour of being crowned Xbox Live “Halo 2” World Champion, playing entirely online via Xbox Live.
The global championship rounds will be played on Friday, 10 June in double elimination rounds. The 24 regional winners will be sectioned into four pools of six players each. The top three will move on to the next round, while the bottom three from each group will move into a elimination bracket; once a regional champion loses twice, they are eliminated. Each round will last 10 minutes. The final matches will be played on the new “Halo 2” map, Warlock. Local start times for the final rounds will be based on Greenwich Mean Time.
Having all 24 regions participate in one global tournament is a first for Xbox Live, which means that the following gamers are trailblazers in a new era of online gameplay and competition. Because each Xbox Live region was guaranteed a spot in the final round, each country has crowned its own “Halo 2” champion. Below is the list of the Xbox Live regional champions to date:

Bemærk hvem kampene er mod. Sammenlign med Xbox.com interviewet: "l terry15 lL: Yes, I'm in two to be exact. My Major League Gaming team, Knightmare, consists of Sickle 9, John8laze, and efface."
Således får man sine venners XP og kommer op over folk som spiller ærligt. | Spiller nu: Halo: The Master Chief ..., Dying Light, Earth Defense Force 2025

Playkid | Skrevet 09/06-05 13:12 | Det latterligste er at nogle af de andre følger med fordi han Terry startede. Det var da noget af en børnehave niveau man skal se fra pro-spillere.
Virkelig sørgeligt. | Spiller nu: Halo 3

Lige netop den kamp kan nok ikke bruges til så meget, da Defy og Ronin er på Pacmaynes side. De vil have at Pacmayne vinder, hvilket gør at de ikke spiller for at vinde, men for at sørge for, at Pac får flere kills end Terry.
Det er skam ikke kun Terry som booster. Pacmayne, som mange føler burde vinde, boostede også under turneringen. Han siger selv, at grunden til det var, at Terry startede, hvilket er det med børnehave niveauet Playkid refererer til... | Spiller nu: Halo: The Master Chief ..., Dying Light, Earth Defense Force 2025

NazQuel | Skrevet 10/06-05 10:12 | Hvordan har de afholdt turneringen i USA? siden de går så meget op i det med at booste??
Men hvis pacmayne også booster, så booster vel næsten alle top leaderboards, da de højst sandsynlig kender hinanden..
Er der nogen der ved, hvem der kom med fra Japan? | Vampyrere er ren overtro - ligosom alfer, nisser og eskimoer
