Great Event! Thank you! Craig worked heard, thanks for listening to the gamers, thanks for asking for our feedback, thanks for some BRILLIANT announcing.

I just wanted to say that the entire tournament was great. Understandable rule changes had to be made because of the time it was taking to finish the first group play. I believe the staff worked very hard and made the correct calls in every decision. The announcing was phenomenal.

Now the bad was stasis, it is where the problem started and you nipped it in the bud at the end.

This was the first ever Huge LAN event for GoW2 which meant you had the desire to find out what works at LAN and what doesn\'t.

Again congratulations on running the first successful tournament for GoW2.

Seems like the event went perfect. WCG is taking over! Thanks for making a GOW2 event as well as Guitar Hero 2! Hopefully there will be more tournaments like this in the future. Overall great job, and thanks!

Great event, I had a lot of fun playing and the announcer was just amazing. First big Gow2 event and was much better than most thought. Im glad to see how big esports has gotten.

The Gears of War community is by far one of the closest and coolest communities I\'ve ever shoutcasted for. I really respect your comments and tips while I was casting and your understanding about the rules.

I\'m sure we will be seeing more of each other in the future. Thanks again to everyone.

Hey everyone, I just posted a news piece on the CEVO \"Fresh Meat\" Challenge which includes two online competitions, one for CoD: World at War and of course one for Gears of War 2. You guys should check it out if you really enjoyed, prizes are pretty good for a small online tournament.
