Sponsors and prizes!
Respawn LAN welcomes ThermalTake onboard once again, who are offering the following for us to give away A ThermalTake LANBOX (silver), a Golden ORB II CPU cooler, an O3 air cleaner, a TaiChi M2 Mouse Pad and a Thunderblade 80mm LED fan.
Centrecom are kindly kicking in a MOMO Racing Force Feedback wheel which will be awarded to the winner of the FLATOUT 2 competition.
While you're looking forward to the event, we're working hard at bringing you the best in BYO PC LAN gaming.
Gaming Consoles
We will also be running the gaming console area once again. Quite a number of people are bringing PS3s and XBOX 360 consoles so if you have one of these, we strongly suggest you bring it along! For players bringing their PS3s, info on games and players you can expect to play with at the event can be found here.
Registration
If you plan on coming along, we really do appreciate it when you register. Otherwise, you might wind up sitting on the floor! And we can definitely say that the floor is not the most comfortable of places to sit in front of your PC... |
