... its not direct competition, I have been in many console competitions and it is always best when you fight side by side with a game. The tension and atmosphere it creates is amazing...

..little message to Special Reserve. Please hold a national console championships. Please. Please. Please. Why? Because us UK gamers need one.

Tony - I have sent you information on a company that runs it for you, sponsors are easy to get, as the unofficial magazine always want to do that, come on... if even you wanted staff just get some of the respected on the forums.

Four venues as the qualifying, Leeds, Glasgow, London and Cardiff. A final in London. Make it so. Please.

(Argh well, at least you tried again).

I also think its wrong to call it 'Gamer of the Year'. Because it just wouldn't be true.
Anyways.
Moan mode off.

Cool idea, but would it be just a radom game from any format? Coz then it would just be luck if you got the game u like.

I dunno about a 'national console championships' but I think it would be interesting if SR did something with their game servers?

On-Line gameing would allow anyone to participae, not just those within reach of one of the allocated regions?

People can cheat on the internet server, we need face to face stuff. I want to make Sheepy run.

Yeah, I think it would be cool. Wouldn't be able to actually participate myself, but I'd go out in the first round anyway. :0)

aye... but presumably wether the competition was on-line of off there would need to be moderators to check for fair play...

There are programs for most of the popular on-line games that allow for passive viewing... these could even be made avalible to the general public... so all forum memebers (or anyone else who was interrested enough to download the program) could watch each head to head?

dunno?
