See the latest CoD epic and a whole lot more!

Call of Duty: World at War is coming (and we really hope it's good!), and to celebrate Activision and Alienware are running a mammoth 24-hour gaming LAN at Swinburne University on November 8th.

Swinburne may seem an odd place for the event, but given the uni's courses in game design - plus the many Alienware PCs it has in its gaming labs - it's an obvious choice. There'll be 100 PCs and 100 Xbox 360s, and as well as CoD WaW there'll be Quantum of Solace to be played too. Vendors such as Razer, ATI, LG, and more will also have lots of cool gear on display.

You can get more information - and by tickets - here. You also find out all about the neato goodies you'd get in the showbag that every attendant will receive on the day.

Oh, and Atomic might be there too!

There's Klingons on the starboard bow!

And, in this month's issue of Atomic, as we go in depth with the Producer of the new MMO, Star Trek Online. We also bench ATI's latest, drool over the Thermaltake Level 10 case, and deliver our verdict on controversial game titles Left 4 Dead 2 and Modern Warfare 2.

All this, and more, in this month's issue, on sale now.
