VGames announces 500-event live college campus video game tour

Building on the success of their 30- city mall tour, VGames announced today that it will launch the VGames College Campus Challenge (VGames C3) this August. The 500 live events will be held on college campuses from coast to coast, combining the excitement and draw of a full-fledge video game tournament with the marketing advantages of a promotional tour.

The VGames C3 will feature both the top PC and console games for tournament play as well as giving gamers the chance to demo a host of new and previously unreleased games. "This is not just a promotional tour," said Heath Gross, Director of Marketing. "It is a full-fledge tournament with over $500,000 in cash and prizes."

Absolutely. That is, if they come to Canada. Which they won't.

But I would like to compete.

That's fucking awesome. I'd definitely woop up on some bitches here at ASU (Boone). I doubt they'll come to ASU, but if they come anywhere near here, I'll fuckin' drive out there.

The tournaments will definatly happen, however, don't get your hopes up about the prizes ever coming through.

The people that run the show(a guy and his girlfriend) have ran tournaments in the past. They always left themselves a loophole in the contract to drop all and most of the prize money. Time will tell if they cough up the dough at the end of this year's summer VGames tournaments.

So go and have fun at tournaments, just don't be surprized if you don't win anything even if you take first prize.
