Speedlink Trigger talks to Crossfire about how where and why the CoD scene has been in such a state of flux competitively, despite one of the most active competitive scenes.

This weekend is the first major test of the new Serious Gaming lineup, they travel to Gothenburg for Wonderbase and now the world awaits.

They sit on the edge of being the first team to mount a challenge to the hedgemony that has dominated Call of Duty for years, this new best of the rest team have driven a wedge between Dignitas and Speedlink, one which very few could dating all the way back to Eurocup 10.

The World of Wolfenstein is about to under go some phenomenal changes that it has never experienced in its long existence. Another 2,500 euros has been sent ET's way and it will equate to the games third international lan of prestige this year. More importantly, it will become the third lan event in 4 months and that represents a growing change in the need to be able to finance teams desires.

The world of Call of Duty is ever more in the limelight, ever more in the faces of gamers and yet at this weekends World Cyber Games I talked with many of the games top managers and not one of them would entertain the idea of picking up a CoD team.

Hey, hows it going, Care to introduce yourself?

Hi, I'm Nick 'Solz' Schurink of H2K Gaming, I'm the master of gaming.

Where does the biggest threat at netgamez lie for you?

Speedlink vs Dignitas, Fatal1ty vs Vo0, Chelsea vs Barcelona sport and entertainment is built on creating characters and pitting them against one another, the world needs to be able to relate, support and take sides.

ET is at a crossroads right now, crossfire is going to analyse the 6th player debate, take some opinions and work out whether the 6th player could be responsible for Wolfensteins demise!

I've been playing Wolfenstein since it first came out and in clan format, I can rarely remember the 5on5 debate ever coming near to practicality. Infact, in RTCW I cannot even remember when this idea was really contemplated.

This weekend sees the Crossfire PrizeFight Challenge and the biggest prizepot given out in Europe for Call of Duty2 and Wolfenstein Enemy Territory. With over $7000 in cash prizes up for grabs the cream of the crop will litter Rotterdam's TGS Gaming Centre for an all out blood bath. The whole tournament is brought to you by www.crossfire.nu

The ET Tournament -

Prior to Quakecon I made many posts about how wonderful Quakecon is, how unique it is and how important it is in the gaming calender.

The word bootcamp is spouted around like its going outta fashion. "Team X has been bootcamping with somebody good for a week now, they will be great now", why will they be good? What magical occurance happens at these bootcamps?
