Gears of War tournament launch begins
The Consoles Sports League are pleased to announce we will be hosting a Gears of War 4 on 4 tournament.
For the past few weeks Gears of War has come across as a novelty title when it comes to competition, but with a section of the Gears community expressing strong desire for the game to continue on over Gears of War 2, the future of either game remains uncertain. The tournament will be used to give an idea of how active teams are and to show where player commitments lie.

Direct link to sign-ups:

GOW 4on4 Cup


The number of entrants is limited to 64 teams but can be increased if necessary. The format will be double-elimination.

Sign-ups are now open with registration closing Friday 31st of July. The tournament begins Saturday 1st of August. Prizes are yet to be confirmed.

Sign up now to guarantee your place and good luck!

gl all!
XL7 GoW1 --> 15 teams // XL8 GoW1 --> 2 teams
XL7 GoW2 --> 34 teams // XL8 GoW2 --> 35 teams

GREAT EVOLUTION, NO ???!!!!

Because if GoW1 is choose, GoW2 player won't go back to GoW1, but GoW1 player will go on GoW2.

STOP PLAYING THIS SHIT GAME !

You're basing those numbers on nothing, all these mainland randies wont go to ESGN. GoW 1 had the most consistent community at XL, it can easily survive for even longer.
If you think I wanted this debate to open again then you are sadly mistaken. Up until recently there wasnt even a decision to be made, and the Gears community only have themselves to blame for this uncertainty.

Gears1 has had a consistent attendance of over 25 teams at XL, so with all these teams quitting Gears2 you have to understand that this cannot be ignored and we have to seriously consider both options.

At the end of the day, it is LAN attendance that is the issue here not online, and we are fully aware of the consequences of any decision made. The Gears community has opened this debate again further to TU4 so whatever decision we make now will be a bad decision for approx 50% of the community.

Gow1 is more supported than Gow2 by the LAN attending community. End of.

Anyone who visited the gears forum website would see that the gears community is comfortably swaying in the favour of gears 1.

@everyone:

Rules will be in place ASAP
Only 17 UK Teams on this tourny.

There was 32 UK Teams in the EU Tourny.

It's funny.

I think 10 teams to ESGN if GoW1 is choose.

It's funny.

Cool...
Anjelz all you have done is posted negative comments to this game i bet you used to play gears one amd got dominated so gears 2 came out lost all of its skill and players like you got good or at least you think you are so stop hating
I just tell the truth and what i think.

ps: i was good at GoW1, and i'm good at GoW2

I just tell the truth and what i think.
ahaha no retarded admins of gb, you cant lagg up to win boys ; ) we already know the winners
More of these teams would attend LAN.

I respect that your team traveled to XL twice for GoW 1, but you don't understand, all those CSL GoW 2 signups doesn't translate into LAN teams.
"all those CSL GoW 2 signups doesn't translate into LAN teams."

WoOW, and why ?

And you think that the 20 teams UK (on the GoW1 tourny) will go to ESGN ?
No, because most are pickups, split in 3 weeks :(

If GoW1 is choose, kon will have big regrets...
All the community will stop the game after the event.

It's sad.

The worse is that you know that, but the only thing you want it's win again...
Anjlez do you know how many teams will reform if gow1 is chosen far more than your gears2 figures
And do you know how many teams will reform if GoW2 is chosen ?

I just look the team numbers.

More UK teams on GoW2, more EU teams on gow2.

I'm sure Kon will take the good decision...

Anjelz, we're in an excellent position to win a GoW 1 or 2 event at ESGN. We just took 1st place in the CSL and ShopTo tournaments for GoW 2. We didn't practice AT ALL, so what will happen when we do prepare? The teams that can truly compete against us on either game more than likely will not include yours, especially with your awful attitude and assumptions of why we want GoW 1.
GoW2 is such a boring game compared to GoW1.Im good at both but i prefer GoW1 becasue its put together better and more people prefer GoW1.More teams will attend Lan if it is GoW1.GoW2, i dont see it being a big lan type of game and popular but its just my opinion.And since all of this, alot of really good players have being coming back as i was scrimming against Godshot and people out of NoK yesterday as they like GoW1 better.Let's hope GoW1 comes back to Lan and GoW2 gets wiped out of the Lan scene.
Also, prove to me that those European teams would come for ESGN. Post something constructive rather than overrating your own team as usual.
Yer anjlez so far you gone on about how GoW2 will smash LAN by numbers but wait a sec were are these figures coming from.........o yer anjlez arse........i thought i smelt b**lsh*t.... GoW 1 has proven itself at LAN... The descision is clear
lolololol ive never heard something good out fitzer mouth other than that comment only joking Anjelz is get Raiided
gow2 had about 8 months for teams to get ready, in about 2 weeks alot of teams are coming together for gow1, and old players are slowly hearing about it and coming back. alot of players will refuse to play gow2, and gow2 players will play gow1. also anjelz, i remember a gb match against you in a random team, and we almost beat you guys in our 1st match. you werent amazing so stop acting like that. your teams pretty much the only ,ainland eu team which shows up anyway so the majority of eu teams wont make a difference to this LAN, unfotunately =[
Could anyone post a link of the rule set
@Loco : So you prefer Win a XL on GoW1 with only 15 teams or win a XL on GoW2 with 30+ teams ???
ps: find me a post where i overrating my team ! Poor boy, it's the more arrogant NO LIFE who said me that,you are so funny.

@Rykin x : hummm you have big arguments...

@Fluxzy : 8 month !!!!?????? WowW , no comments.
"In 2 weeks alot of teams", alot of ?? only 30 with only 20 UK (with 7 pickup, split in 3 weeks).
For the GB match i don't care about your ass, i don't remember, and if you remember me, happy to know, stop suck.
ps: i had see your face, and it's normal if you beat me, you look like loco, NOLIFE.
Didn't you come onto Eurolive celebrating after beating Romance on Decerto?

It's actually pathetic that you're telling people that they have no life on here. You must be really insecure. Anyway, you have no evidence to back up anything that you've said. However, I'm assuming that your team will be traveling from France again? Rather than trying to insult people on here, you should be encouraging mainland European teams to travel to the UK as your own team do.
Your annoying alot of people anjlez and if you and your pathetic little team are going to LAN your gana get alot of hating all you have done is posted critism to the game....not even consrtuctive critisism.. The only reason why you dont want gow1 at lan is cause you know you wont place respectivley and if thats the case which it is.... It really shows how pathetic and imature you really are p.s what the rule set ?? ;)
@Loco : Celebrating ??? diosinca had just create a topic to share the result, like all teams had made with us. And you are come to say "that was onliiine!"lol
You said i have no evidence, but it's just logic, you look the team numbers and you use your brain.

And don't worry, i encouraging people to do like us, but you think there will be 1 EU teams who will travel to lose on GoW1 ???
NO! because no1 played this game since 8 month.


@Rykin x : My "pathetic little team" lol, wants GoW2 because it is better than GoW1, and there will be more teams on GoW2. GoW1 is a random game.
I prefer GoW2.
You said "you wont place respectively", i don't think so. If GoW1 is choose, we could do easily a top 5 like everytime, but if GoW1 is choose WE WILL NOT TRAVEL TO LOSE MONEY !!!
LIKE EVERY EU TEAM !
If GoW1 is choose you will just get a UK Lan with 20 teams max.

Cool for you. You make just retarded the eSport.

It's sad.
alot of these "pickups" are old gow1 teams, and there are alot of random pickups on the gow2 tourny, which for a tourny which offered a decent amount of cash im not suprised there were so many signed up.

gow1 is random? then what do you class gow2 as?

if there not willing to travel to loose then why bother, dig win every time, its more about fun then going for 1st. dont bitch so much just cos your another one of these teams who think thy'll take 1st because this game hasnt been at LAN. and how can i look like loco and have nolife? doesnt make sense because 1)josh is mexican 2) we look nothing a like in the 1st place.

and gow1 nearer the even will be about 25 teams, like the attendance already has been, where gow2 will probably be around 10 teams because alot of UK teams have said they will quit if its gow2.

your making yourself look like a right twat btw

"8 months wooWWWWW" sorry, it was actually 6 months, half a year isnt so long is it.... oh

GoW1 have random shotgun yes. Not gow2.

Dig win everytime?? Everybody can beat dignitas, stop thinking they are GODs.

We will see later the teams numbers and im sure i'm right. I wish you a great UK Lan.

ps: "6 month" !!??? WowWwWW !! lol!

"i hope its gow1 just so a retard like you doesnt show up"
lol, very good argues!

You don't know gow1 have random damages?
Stand up face to an other guy and fire without move, tadaaaaaa different damage everytime.
Not on GoW2.
Look anjlez i dont no why your still arguing its clear gears one is winning this race and you only have yourselves to blame maybe if stop wasting your time arguing here and gain the support needed from the gow 2 community then you may still have a chance but you so ignorant that youll probably just argue with me about this comment.... No wonder gears1 is winning...gears2 just seems to have morons like you trying to defend xD
lol, look :

http://www.consoles.net/eu/poll/27386/

Everything you said to me is also for people voting for GoW2 ? Lol you will get a lot of ennemy.

i just think fake account...
lol, you actually think I've made another account? God you're such a loser, really

Also, the GoW 1 shotgun is 1000x more skillful than the one on GoW 2. For you to think otherwise pretty much sums you up.
LOLOLOL Anjelz Please just SHUT UP YOU SAY WE HAVE NO LIFES WHEN YOUR THE ONE WHOS ON THIS ALL DAY JUST TELLING PEOPLE THEY HAVE NO LIFE. TBH WHO CARES HOW WELL YOU DO IN COMPETITIONS. GO SUCK AN EGG
