www.crossfire.nu has today announced support from ATI, the world leader in the design and manufacture of innovative 3D graphics, PC platform technologies and digital media silicon solutions, to send the Crossfire Community Team to Dallas, Texas to compete in Quakecon 2006.
Quakecon, the leading tournament for Enemy Territory, is offering $30,000 in cash prizes for their tournament in Dallas this year. With Quakecon announced just 21 days prior to the tournament European teams attending the “SuperBowl” of their game was a distant dream. Crossfire, the home of Enemy Territory, decided it was time to get the community together and send the very best of the European scene go to Dallas and return with the money to reinvest in the community.
With Crossfires community donating one Euro each to help send the team to Dallas in a Blue Peter appeal style, they selected a team and practice was underway. As the community persevered together the cost kept escalating as time went by and all hopes of attending seemed distant. However, when ATI heard of the communities plight they stepped up to the plate to make sure Crossfire would be attending Quakecon this year. In a feat of fantastic charity, ATI have sent not only the 5 man allstar lineup but also a documentary team to record all the action of the team and the event.
