As GGL prepares for another season of Epileptic Gaming and even more quality shows to come (like “Up All Night”), we took the steps to improve our studio in which we broadcast out of. Take a look at the work in progress and make sure you tune in on Monday, Nov. 5, for the new season of Epileptic Gaming.
The echoe of the World Cyber Games scandal with teams winning crucial matches due to calls made by referees are still resounding. Anton “Cyclone” Lapshenkov, a WCG finals referee has posted a blog where he talks about the insider’s perspective on the controversy in the WCG Counter-Strike competition.
Lapshenkov was one of the referees of the eSTRO vs. MYM match. In the blog, he claims that he was excluded from the discussion between the Koreans and the referees and clearly takes the side of the Norwegians. The result of the game was changed, even though […]
In a huge step for pro gaming, the Cyberathlete Professional League has announced today they will be giving away $1 million in total prize money for an open Halo 3 competition at the Extreme Winter Championships taking place Tuesday, Dec. 18 to Saturday, Dec. 22 at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Dallas, Texas.
CPL founder Angel Munoz gave GGL all the details on this monumental tournament for the year’s hottest-selling game, the Xbox 360’s Halo 3. Here is official word from the CPL regarding the announcement and how anyone can take part:
The Cyberathlete […]
Following the success of the pilot episode of GGL’s new videogame review show, “Up All Night,” the cast and crew are preparing for a season of even more unique and entertaining episodes that will take you beyond the standard review. Upcoming episodes and dates have now been announced. Here are the titles that you can expect to see:
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games: Going beyond the living room environment, the “Up All Night” crew will deliver an experience completely unique to this exciting game from Sega for the Nintendo Wii. The episode is […]
Team DC (Don’t Care) breezed through a Sierra and GameStop 5v5 World in Conflict tourney that netted them a free trip to Los Angeles and a host of other prizes. The crew took on TwentyID in a best of three final yesterday in Los Angeles and quickly dispatched their opponents by winning the first two rounds.
“We had no problem at all getting through,” said Team DC Captain Blake Midstokke. “The great thing about World in Conflict is that it’s not really about individual skill, but really more about team skill. We spent a lot of time building […]
I’ve been in Seattle since Tuesday and this is the first chance I got to do anything fun other than eat apple danishes and have intestinal problems, so I jumped at the chance to play g0d-Ms.X in a game of Quake 3 at the Razer booth. Little did I know what was in store for me … or did I?
See what transpired below.
And yes, I did have an excuse ready at the end. See all our WCG 07 footage at the WCG07 video page.

Well, it’s the first day of the World Cyber Games 2007 Grand Finals, and what better way to start it off than with an apple danish guaranteed to give you diabetes? djWHEAT and Tasteless geek out with Starcraft talk while kam-RA gets his insulin on. Check it.
P.S - I met a blast from the past right after we got off the bus today. It was none other than Joseph “Dy-Syng” Kim, a Canadian ex-Quake 3 player who I used to play with back in 2000-2001. He also happened to be an extremely good player. These days, he’s the head referee […]
Things are a bit dead at the World Cyber Games 2007 Grand Finals venue, but I did manage to catch the staff setting up the Project Gotham Racing 4 display. Check out them moving around two Aston Martins, a Ford GT40, Shelby Cobra, and Lotus Elise (I think, anyway; my automotive knowledge is failing me).
By the way, all the mic checks and beatboxing are part of rehearsals. Sorry about that.
We’re at the Qwest Event Center here in Seattle, sitting on a concrete floor, bringing you updates from the World Cyber Games 2007 Grand Final. The GGL Wire crew hooked up with Tom “SeeD” Conerly and Stuart “Django” Ewen last night at our hotel, and will meet up with more broadcasters today to round out the full coverage crew.
Breakfast was … disappointing, to say the least. However, I just saw some pretty badass cars at the Project Gotham Racing 4 area, which made up for it. Check the videos.
DigitalLife 2007 is over, and we thought it would be best to highlight some of the zany characters that make the GGL Wire’s productions happen. Check out these videos of Marcus “djWHEAT” Graham, Hogan “kam-RA” Carter, Rance “Rome” Costa, Robert Summa, Amir “Hakeem” Haleem and more at the event.
On set-up day, Amir got foul-mouthed with the camera as he searched desperately for Joe Moss, our director of competitions. When we were finished, I spoke to Chris at the Javits center about our progress.
The following day, I caught up with Spirit Moon … or rather, […]
During this year’s DigitalLife, GGL had the biggest and best area at the convention. Not only did we have the best of the best pro gaming going on, but we also had Epileptic Gaming and some rockin’ music to go along with each and every day we were there. In case you missed it, here are the highlights of the event:
