Imo, don't limit it to frag of the week, as esports is more than just first person shooters, would be harder to find a name suitable to encompass the whole range of 'moves' or 'plays' possible in different games, but it should be some astounding 'move' or 'action' as aposed to 'frag'.

Good thing to see you use your hands, though it looked more like you prepared yourself for a fight :)

I must commend you for taking advantage of the criticism you recevied – which takes both maturity and intelligence – because this week's episode was a vast improvement from the first one.

Very nice, you looked a lot more confident and professional. Also nice to see a lot of CoD4 news mentioned, especially one from fnatic ;-)

laska 12 Jun 2008, 19:06
Very very nice but you should mention the PGL which is taking place right now in Beijing since the best of the best in wc3 are fighting for glory there =)

raSen 12 Jun 2008, 19:12
wipido's streaming qualities suck major elephant balls. yet, funny acting tosspot. keep it up.
▼
cryptz 12 Jun 2008, 20:24
the screen behind you should play some trailers/fragmovies/random stuff...
also you shouldve asked some more questions to vo0 cuz now he just kept repeating the same thing and almost caused me to close the stream. the ig part was rly nice =).
you should have mentioned that mick did say some nasty things, now cb looks like total twats (maybe they are, but you should have mentioned it). and the last seconds instead of looking away from the camera, they lights should have a shutdown and you should a have shaked (grabbed?) to make it look pro.


i loved it

next tell him to stand on his hands and sing the danish national anthem backwards.
I think it was fine with his hands ;)

smile toss! you looked *relieved* it was over right at the end. Watch MOTD :P and have a look at old Lineker ;)

nice show with lots of information from different games.

Have you considered some animation that would introduce another game and information about events connected with that game? Amount of told information is great you have to create short breaks in order to let viewers catch a breath (attention).

infect 12 Jun 2008, 22:05
How about ET final ? ...

nice show

Longbow 13 Jun 2008, 14:27
improved :) nice hand job!

Indeed, more use of the tv on the background would be nice.
▼
smOke 13 Jun 2008, 14:56
nice, cant wait to try this kind of media too :P But if only you can give W:ET at least 30seconds.. ESL Major Series for example ;)

I am very happy that I have your sign from CDC3 one/two years and I would be millionaire :P

<3

cryptz 13 Jun 2008, 18:39
now why would he give ET more attention?
Parent
▼
smOke 13 Jun 2008, 20:13
Because W:ET is best FPS game? Because thanks to that game Crossfire has such friendly and good community? ;)
Parent
▼
cryptz 13 Jun 2008, 20:53
lol at friendly and good community.
second, Et isn't the best fps game, maybe the best teambased game ( rtcw fans may burn me now) but not the most popular game and it has no tourney or important events
Parent
▼
smOke 14 Jun 2008, 10:56
Because W:ET is best FPS teambased game with active community, cups, CB, ESL and even LANs! UT2004, MoH,BF, DoD they died during time but W:ET NOT and is still KICKING DUDE!

Nice, GJ TosspoT (:
eSports needs this..

Something I did miss though was more footage between the talking. But it's not always easy to get your hands on I guess
