I had the opportunity to participate in a podcast with Joe “nineX” Szymkowicz and Seppy (formerly of Quakecon) about LAN Parties. If you’re interested in hearing a lively discussion about the future of LANs in t United States, check out Ready Up Radio and listen for yourself.
Warfactory is still working hard to revitalize the LAN scene in St. Louis, but we need your help! We have two upcoming events:
Hazelwood Central Charity Event - May 16th, 2009
This is a Halo 3/Guitar Hero 3 event. We’ve promoted Madden 2009 as well, however this may change depending upon registration. For Halo, there are over 60 registrants so it may very well be a fantastic tournament.
Hours are Noon to 5:30 pm on May 16th. Only $7 in advance/$10 at the door. The Red Bull Wings team will be there and prizes will be available! Click for more information …
Warfactory 2009 - July 25, 2009
You’ve been asking and we’re definitely planning. Thus far we will be going back to IT Enterprises off Natural Bridge. We want to “revitalize LANs” in the area, so we’re going to depend on you guys to help us make this a fun event. We will have both PC and Console tournaments and return to a more casual LAN format.
We will need your help to make this and future LANs happen so any of you wanting to help find attendees, sponsors, or help with the event please contact us.
If you’re a fan of Halo 3, Guitar Hero 3, or Madden 09, Warfactory will be joining 2GameGuys for a Charity event at Hazelwood Central High School on May 16th, 2009. If you’re a fan of any of these games, please join us and show of your skills for a good cause. We’ll be helping raise funds for the Renaissance organization. Details are as follows:
