We received this content recently and have decided to share it unedited. We are not getting paid for this content, but it was sent to us by a PR company. We suspect it is for Red Bull because it’s the only brand actually mentioned in the release below: Ready to level up? Go from amatuer gamer to pro this summer…
By Maxwell Kamlongera As gamers there are a lot of amazing worlds we get to explore from the comforts of our seats. So many in fact that it becomes a subjective and drawn-out endeavour to select what constitutes as a perfect (or poor) setting. In order to remain concise and circumvent this problem, this list will only contain games that…
Damage Control (DC) are the gatekeepers to the top tier of South African Counter-Strike. While they were a highly decorated, multiple LAN winning team in previous versions of the game, a second tournament win has been elusive in CS:GO. Their last and only title in CS:GO was by beating Bravado at the IS Invitational in 2013 – SA CS:GO’s first…
Expos: the long-time home of SA esports tournaments Conventional wisdom in South African esports circles when it comes to staging a successful esports tournament with a live audience would suggest that one should attach one’s competition to an existing expo of some kind. Whether it be rAge, EGE or RUSH, we can all think of a successful event with a…
I popped in at the Canal Walk Gaming Expo on my way home from work today to say hello to that weird Zombie Dredd dude and then stood in the reasonably short queue to try Playstation VR at the very nicely setup booths. They had Until Dawn : Rush of Blood, RIGS and then VR Worlds each in their own…
Well. Not really. We were (along with a few other local media outlets) approached to write a snappy piece about a TV series character and their likelihood of dying per day due to the constant danger they found themselves in. We of course opted for the pain in the neck of every zombie called Rick Grimes. Why? Because against all…
There is a problem in South Africa. It’s the regular rise and quick death of small events and organisations that focus on gaming – both casually and competitively. For every organisation that starts (sometimes with admittedly overly optimistic aspirations) or announces a new event, it seems two others quietly disappear from activity. For many this is simply down to an apparent…
Sadly, due to reasons (planning a zombie apocalypse and such), Zombiegamer’s regulars r0gue Zombie and Zombie Dredd could not attend rAge this year. Yes, yes. Boo! Hiss! Etc. However, two (more than) honorary zombies (we’ll call them rAge Zombie and Rebel Zombie Monkey) were heading to the Coca-Cola Dome for the first time, so we wrangled them in to be…
We made no secret of our disappointment with the lack of support of both players and spectators for our recent C4 LAN event that we hosted on 4 October. It shows that no matter how good your own intentions, it always requires the support of others to make an event a success. For those a little lost, the C4 LAN was the…
Guest writer, Hannes Burger, takes aim at the aim-assist in Battlefield 4. The Journey Begins A while back some subscribers to my small Youtube channel asked that I do a video discussing the aim-assist system in BF4. I had the (incredibly misguided) notion that such a video won’t be of much interest, however I coincidentally happened upon a Youtube video apparently…
