You may have already heard about it. If you haven’t, you’re clearly hanging around the wrong places on the internet. By “it” we don’t mean something silly like a zombie apocalypse. We mean the Trenchtown Gaming Tournament. It’s awesome because it will feature zombies. And humans. And games… of course. Trenchtown in Observatory (Cape Town) has been the scene of…
This should be Undead Ed’s moment. He usually appears in this slot spouting nonsense before introducing you to another fine South African gaming clan. This week we decided to toss a limb over the fence and into the river that runs past Zombie HQ to distract him so we could focus on something not completely removed from his regular feature.…
Look, if you grew up as the metal and rap crossover kicked off, you probably can’t help but sing “Judgment Night” when thinking of the most recent 2upGamers event. Of course, I’m older than most, so maybe it’s just me, however, Judgment (or in this case, Judgement) was the word on many people’s lips at Trinity on 10 May. 2upGamers…

And it is, if you excuse the American spelling of Judgment… The event has made a slight return to the naming conventions of old, with the 10 May event being dubbed ‘Judgement Night’ – no, Emilio Estevez will not be there trying to survive Denis Leary. The third event…
2upGamers appeared to do things in twos this time around, or at least in multipliers of that amount. It was the second event to be held at Trinity, but the day of the event was changes to the second Friday of the month. It then doubled the number of tournaments on offer. On the reverse it halved the number of…
With a week to go, here’s what will be on the cards for April’s 2upGamers’ event. It’s jam packed, and the good news is entry to the event will be cheaper than ever before. The event will be at the Trinity Event situated at 15 Bennett Street in Green Point, Cape Town on Friday 12 April. Entry will now be R60 per person,…
April is upon us already, and it seems that it will be one heck of a month for gaming related activities in South Africa. So let’s get started… April… Week 1 Friday kicks off with the GAP 2 LAN. The second Gaming Above Perfection LAN is happening at the Pniel Millennium Hall and will cost you R100 per LAN seat of…
Midnight game launches. We get them on our sunny shores, that is for sure, but they do tend to feel like nothing more than a long wait in a queue for collection of the much anticipated title. With Nik Naks and cooldrinks as entertainment. The Gears of War Judgment launch party at Games On in Cape Town was just a…
