Xbox 360/Halo Tournament wrap up

September 25th, 2009, Paul , Tags: , ,

Last Friday (18th) we held the first (of hopefully many) annual inter-Uni Xbox 360 Tournament. 10 teams competed in Halo 3, fighting over 4 x Halo 3 Legendary Edition + Gears of War 2 + Ninja Gaiden 2 + Forza 2 (that was just for first place other games were awarded for the other 3 places)

Several of the teams were very evenly matched, with four of the games ending up at 50-to-49!

With about 50 people show up, it was a great night. Thanks to the guys who helped out setting up and packing up, without their help I don’t think we would have been able to successfully pull of the night!

Congratulations to Cobra Commanders (from Deakin!), who took out first place. Sabo, Camberwell Clowns and Silhouette took out second, third and fourth respectively.

Firstly, entry requirements have changed to make it easier to compete: there will be no entrance fee, and teams may include up to two people from outside uni.

Secondly, we have a firm date and location:
