It’s hard to believe that Warfactory has been around for a decade, but we’re still working to bring the return of gaming to the region.

With 2010 coming soon, we are VERY active in creating new gaming events for everything you want to play competitively.  So you want to prep your Counter-Strike team for real action?   Need some actual practice for MLG without all the online noobs?  Well remember … LANs are THE ONLY place you can get the kind of experience you need to be really competitive.

If you’re ready to help make St. Louis THE place for gamers in the next decade, keep reading to find out how you can help!

If you’re a serious Quake player the AGP Tour has just officially launched adding 12 North American tournaments to its schedule.

VIDA LLC announced today the launching of the first ever international players association in professional gaming and in Quake Live, the AGP (Association of Gaming Professionals). The AGP will unite the players to expand and sustain the sport themselves through player legislation, international and regional rankings, and tournament sponsoring and sanctioning.

Warfactory has been heavily involved in this next evolution of E-Sports.  Make sure you check it out!

Dust off your PCs!  Clean off your XBOX 360 Controllers!  We’re announcing a free (YES FREE!!!) tournament event and LAN to celebrate the long-awaited release of Modern Warfare 2.  We’ll be working alongside the Webster University Computer Club, 2GameGuys, and GameCrazy and more sponsors will be on the way.

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.
