As you all know we have this wonderful Summer cup up & running and we're almost at the end. For the past 2 months many Gather-Network players have fought for the first and grand prize the new Xbox 360®. However only one player will get it packed and send straight to his home.
... Please note that the Anti-Cheat team and the Helper team along with the Administrators will have a final deccission regarding the top20. *
Now, the new Xbox 360 has many many new features such as a built-in WiFi which allows you download or stream HD movies, TV episodes, games from Xbox LIVE Marketplace in 1080p and 5.1 surround sound from anywhere in the house. The 250GB Hard drive also allows you to save everything begining from games, movies, levels, demos and much more.
Another very cool feature is the Kinect. The Kinect is a small camera that uses an IR to track you in 3D space, meaning it makes YOU the controller :). It has an invisible infrared light which thanks to that can spotlight the whole room. One more cool things is that you can play along with one of your best buddys.

Couple of days ago Mousesports announced that the player who will replace Antonio "cyx" Daniloski, who passed away a month ago, is Christian "Blizzard" Chmiel. He recently played in the team during GameGune 2010. There was one more possible replacement, Jonas "Johnny R." Bollack but he is quite inactive and Blizzard of course would be the better choice. We could possibly see Johnny R. playing with the team in the upcoming event WCG 2010, where the Fatih "gob b" Dayik would not take part. This is the new team of Mousesports and this is their line-up for EPS Germany and the other upcoming tournaments.
The team of Mousesports looks like this:
Christian "Blizzard" Chmiel Navid "Kapio" Javadi Fatih "gob b" Dayik Manuel "Tixo" Makohl Roman "roman" Ausserdorfer
After the GameGune tournament Salih "marqnue" Onaran decided to go inactive due to focus his school and also Dogukan "prostar" Erelin wanted to be inactive to get a job after summer holidays.

Finally, a couple of days ago DarkPassage have announced the addition of Onur " ExtraM " Karul and Sezgin " Fabre " Kalayci to their team.
Sezgin " Fabre " Kalayci stated that:
"I'm happy to here with the team which most people want to be a part of it. I'm looking forward to our firsth match."
Month ago the organisation of MeetYourMakers decided to split their Sweden Counter-Strike 1.6 devision. After that they started to look for a new team to join and to 'present' them on the big events. Couple of days ago they found one. The 'chosen' team is the Russian [u.s.b] which has 3 former members of the team UNiTED. They decided to split after Murat "Arbalet" Zhumashevich stopped sponsoring them. In this way 3 of the ex-players united with other 2 Russians and made [u.s.b], which are now part of MYM. The team will take part in e-Stars Seoul and of course in the WCG finals which are going to be held in LA. They qualified for there after winning 2:0 versus forZe.
The new team of MeetYourMakers looks like this:
Dmitri 'hooch' Bogdanov Eduard 'ed1k' Ivanov Roman 'ROMJkE' Makarov Alexandr 'xek' Zobkov Andrey 'XomA' Mironenko
