By now, you've probably seen the journal, probably noticed the new addition to Sweden's film archives. Yes, in the context of the internet this movie might be considered what Fred Flintstone is to cartoons, but lets not spend too long on that thought, because the mjo produced movie in partnership with 141 and ex SplashDamage player sikota sure is one of the hottest servings this May.

Whilst the English sun might play a game of hide and seek, the action in this film is relentless, offering just over 8 minutes of x264 and special effects goodness, and featuring frags against some "top" names, including parodia and well, even JOTE (they'll never diee!). If you experience any gfx irregularities, using the included VLC player should do the trick. Overall this is one movie that should not be missing from any respectable collectors library. Grab the download now!

The weekend is over, Monday blues are on, a school day is on its way, but fear NOT. Tonight your evening will be filled up with 3 matches coming to you from WL Season VI. The skill level increases as time goes by, to finish with a very intense match.

1st Match

The first match is the last match from India II for this group phase. Both teams are sharing 6 points from 3 matches. The winner will get to be ranked first accompanying FaMa$>> with 9 points. One must remember that from this group only the first 3 are passing, which makes both teams in the next phase, however one must keep in mind that the seedings are quite important.





2nd Match

This second match is a very important clash from Alpha I Division. Some are naming this game as the payback for angeldust for their lost chance in Eurocup, others as the confirmation of noll8's strenght. Who will win? A win for aD will put them with same points as nollo8 in the table sharing the 3rd place, however a loss for aD can mean an early dropout from Warleagues! The stake is high!




3rd Match

The 3rd Match for this evening is a great match from the toppest division, the Premier division. The new Goliath squad, who are the former [<<] squad need to proof to their new home that they are worth their tag. As opponent they are facing the Polish powerhouse, named to be one of the biggest squads atm. Polewka atm are sharing the #1 spot with vae, whilst Glth{ are in the middle of the table with 3 points from 2 matches.





Hope we all enjoy these matches, especially when all these matches will be played on the somewhat not played map Frostbite. Goodluck to all teams!

Due to a small xfire update that will go live this afternoon, there will be a small period of downtime.

We apologise for the inconvienience

She be back! That’s right guys, it’s the return of ETTV Sunday. A critically acclaimed night set aside for nothing more than lounging around in front of your pc. Never one to disappoint the Gamestv staff will be providing over 400 ETTV slots for your viewing pleasure.

Kicking off the action at 20:00 CET sees former Team Hungary & T4Ce (minus Future) underscore taking on one4one. Neither team has impressed lately and this is seemingly too close to call. My prediction skills failing me I looked to a Magic 8 Ball, asking it who would win, he replied “It is decidedly so”. Make of that what you will.

Match Of The Night



Tonight sees only the second outing of the much touted Finish team Demiurge as they take on the all Spanish roster of Azure Fate. Neither team has “officially” met before, though the remnants of the Spanish team that lost 3 1 to Finland in last seasons Nationscup make up the bulk of the Azure roster.

Unlike Demiurge Azure have been active of late, recently reaching the final of the ET-Cup. Though the idle team taught Winghaven a few things about spawn rape…

One To Watch: LoTiX (aka GODCHILD)

We then head over to Group C where sFx Evil look to prove they’re worth the direct invite. Their opponents ranked by some as outside favourites, Team Helix. Group C is arguably the most open group and a good start is a must.

Finally we end with kujuneb vs. Polewka, another encounter in Group C. How will the all Estonian roster of kujuneb deal with the potent force of kot? This gets underway at 21 CET, you can find ETTV information here.

Be sure to tune in from 8 and check back here for updates.

A reported hack has been publicly released which allows serverhosts with bad intentions to take over a users computer. It grants the hacker full access to your pc - with Punkbuster currently forcing players to have admin rights whilst playing.

This exploit effects all Quake 3 engine games, including Quake 3, Enemy Territory and RTCW.

Cash on the GGL site explains that:

Technically, the leak creates a unsuspicious "boundary error" when sending malformed messages from the gameserver to a client during the remapShader process. Once a buffer overflow occurs, the computer is fully exposed to any type of activities.

It does not require a user to download anything from the server, the serverhost simply has to run the script.

The Global Gaming League, home to ET's prodical son Remao 'Cash' Tummers has featured one of our own this weekend.

Ronny 'Ronner' Pasch known for his role in dutch ET clan dHb, has put pen to paper on a great interview which goes very in depth with the dutch oldtimer. Unfortunately though, the story does not ask about his health, an issue that has been brought to light most recently when it was revealed that this ET player dosent always get to the toilet in time!

Heres a snippet of the interview:

Quote

Gaming is looked down upon by society I guess. Mostly people think it is just a bunch of geeky guys sitting behind their PC's all day. In my opinion that is far from the truth. Gaming is like any sport. You train and practise to become good at what you do. No matter if it takes physical energy or mental. The goal stays the same. Getting better at what you do.

This weekend everyone’s favourite Belgian, and ET prodigal son will battle it out for a place in the ESWC proper held at Paris, France.

After his performance at the pre-qualifiers mAx has been seeded second in the competition, just behind GUNK starlet Impulse. He went unbeaten during the pre-qualifiers, beating fellow ET legend ganon in the final. Due to the nature of his seeding mAx will advance straight to the quarter finals. With his first mach against the winner of Ref vs. dromer.

Although having lost his ClanBase EuroCup XIII Qualifier against weird in double overtime mAx remains confident. Blaming his defeat on nerves alone.

Kreaturen Ganon will also be competing this weekend - with his first match against the relatively unknown player sway.

The winner will earn an invite to the Palais Omnisports, Paris from June 30th till July 2nd 2006 where they’ll compete against names such as former Quake3 champion cooller.

We’ll keep you updated as the tournament progresses.
