Gearing up for MLG Orlando

Becoming one of the largest events for the 2008 season of Major League Gaming, Orlando. While it is not only providing an event for Halo 3 competitors, but also teams for Rainbow 6: Vegas, Gears of War and now World of Warcraft. People from across the world are stepping forth to compete in this mind blowing event. From the surprising ending of the 2006 & 2007 season, teams are still pushing their way to the top, trying to reach the spotlight like so many featured Pro Gamers. New teams have also been stepping up to plate with the big boys; Team Classic coming out from the amateur bracket and there first MLG event all together have put on a surprising show, knocking out many of the regular pro teams. MLG Orlando could be the turning point for many teams, not only for just the pro's but for teams look for their big break. This is the chance they've got to put on a suprising performance to make it to the upcoming Vegas Finals. 

Taking on a new twist is MLG picking up World of Warcraft (WOW). Many concel gamers like myself could agree that MLG made a mistake, that bring PC gamers was only going to make the MLGs more crowded, lame, etc. But through the past events watching VOD and attending the events you would have to admit that this PC game has brought many new faces looking for there stardom.

Rainbow 6: Vegas has even brought in more gamers including girl gamers, like the proclaimed Halo 3 girl team, Team Foxy to the curcuit. My experience from the orginal Rainbow 6 and Black Arrow from years past, this game gives challanges that most cant experience in Halo 3. New weapons, strategies and more modern play from the futuristic Halo and Gears of War.

Suprisingly, MLG announced at the 2008 event in San Diego that they would be bring Gears of War back for the Orlando event. Many Gears of War players must have been pleased. Gears of War is strongly based on being a team player and staying together. More powerful weapons can kill you, but also bring you down near death having a teamate close can revive you for more game play. Making this game more challanging than even Halo or Rainbow can manage.

Many surprises are still to come from newer teams for Halo 3 and plenty of other games this 2008.
