CELgames Is Back For Fourth Year

June 11, 2008 by Chapree

The annual Computer and Electronic Games (CELgames) tournament is back! Organized by Gamers Dotcom and GameAxis, the all EA tournament is currently in its fourth year. There are three official games for this year’s event:

• Command & Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath
• FIFA’08
• Need for Speed ProStreet

While the Grand Finals dates was already known (or at least speculated) since last month, the qualifier’s dates and venue were only revealed yesterday at their official website. They are:

• 21st June: Tbun, Wangsa Maju, KL
• 28th June: FTZ Asia.net, SS15 Subang Jaya
• 11th/12th July: Midvalley Megamall, KL

Some of the above dates clashed with some of the WCG Malaysia 2008 qualifiers (more on that later), so you might want to plan your participation accordingly. Plus, if my hunch is right, there could be another CELgames’08 qualifier at Multimedia University since the university is listed as a Venue Sponsor. UPDATE: I got a confirmation that there will be no qualifiers in MMU.

Another piece of the puzzle that haven’t been revealed by the website is the prize list. I predict that we are going to see the usual offerings such as cash prizes, hardwares and PCs. On top of that, I predict that there will be something extra since Celcom is listed as one of the event’s Platinum Sponsor. Some handphones or wireless broadband stuff perhaps?

It is going to be very busy from this month onwards. Buckle up, people!
