The World Cyber Games finals are being held in Seattle starting today and ending Sunday. The event is being held at the Qwest center and tickets are $10 per day. Opening ceremony starts at 6PM today. There's a whole slew of events going on and if there's anything you're really interested in seeing it's probably best to check out the schedule.

Apparently Spike TV will be there putting something together for early November and GameTrailers is doing some video coverage as well. We've been informed that Rock Band will be playable at the event. If you live in the Seattle area, there's something to do this weekend, let us know how it goes.

Sorry, not spamming, just sucks that people aren't alerted to the actual, real coverage of pro gaming events.

No point in posting this everyone knows it.

This weekend me and the other 33 guys in my frat are hosting a kegger for this event. Almost all our girlfriends are coming to watch, except for the couple girls who can't come because they're gonna be at the WCG. After the first couple rounds we will be opening the house to anyone else who wants to take bets on the games but honestly we don't expect we'll have room for everyone as word about this WCG kegger is already out all around campus.

"no point in posting this," right. Watching stangers play boring games is not really tops on most people's radar. Gaming as a spectator sport is not ever taking off.
