World GameMaster Tournament WINNERS

A few days ago we discovered the best gamers in the country.

This year's WGT was a paragon of a gaming tournament, even if we do say so ourselves - it ran smoothly, and featured a host of great gamers.

The technical setup was a thing to behold - 30 ASUS PCs, sexy Razer peripherals, ten 50in plasmas and a giant projector... that's a lotta tech. And it all helped show off some incredible skills and kills on the day. And speaking of kills...

Counter Strike
1ST: Fighting 4 Freedom
2nd: Sublime
3rd: qlimaX – Livid

This year's CS event was hotly contested all day, but in the end Fighting 4 Freedom rose above the competition, taking home a tidy sum of cash as well as mess of hot ASUS gear.

Quake 4
1st: zeal0r
2nd: uNhoLeee
3rd hect1c

zeal0r (really, do they invent these names to make them tough to type?) walked away with the Quake 4 cup, handily railing, plasmaing and generally pwning his way to victory.

Warcraft III
1st: Glade
2nd: Filthy
3rd: Bowt

In the more strategic arena of Warcraft III Glade took home the top prize, and more ASUS prizes to boot.

It was a day that showcased the best gaming talent that Australia has to offer, and ASUS and Atomic are already looking at ways to make next year's WGT the BEST event in the country.

Thanks to ASUS, of course, for sponsoring the event and being ever-generous with the prizes, and mordain and lambo for running the competition for the last three months. Also, thanks GameArena for hosting the initial heats and rounds.

We've got a gallery of shots of just the event, so be sure to check 'em out!
