There is supposed to be something coming on TV soon for the best gamers in the world going at it. I don't know what channel, nor what games, or the date, but I saw the commercial last night on TV.

The only thing I might be sure of is there is supposed to be a CEVO CS championship game played on there. CEVO is the highest CS skill level I believe, and I heard there is a CAL-WoW league, so I was wondering is WoW would be on it. Maybe for pvp or something.

Anyone have any more information on this? I googled it, but I forgot the official name it was given. Its something like "International Gaming Chamionship" or something like that.

Thanks for any help.:thumbsup:

It might be interesting. I don't see WoW as a good candidate though. WoW really doesn't have a clearly defined goal. In CS you can point to the scores and pretty much say with some definity who is best. With the exception of BGs, this would be very hard to do in WoW.

And most take some degree of skill.

Unlike WoW. ;)

hehe, i doubt WoW will make it, CS:S (counter strike source) used to be in WCG, but they took it out and put back old cs 1.6, becuase more "pros" play 1.6, i play source cause its better gameplay and graphics :D and my clan was ranked 28 in Aus, but some of our clan members got WoW and well yer ><

Is WCG going to be on TV? If so do you know the channel, date, etc?
CS:S has nothing on 1.6, by the way. =]

No clue.
Ought to be listed somewhere (http://www.worldcybergames.com/5th/main.asp) on that site, so I'd say happy hunting.
