Gooseman, known in the real world as Minh Le, is one of the main names connected to Counter-Strike. One of the most popular games ever and a modification at that!

The latest pressrelease by ESL states that the European Finals will be combined with the Global Finals. While this does not automatically merge the prize purses, this does mean that one event will give out a total of 280.000 euro in prizes. The final will be at the CeBit event in Hannover, not that far from Holland if you look at it that way, but perhaps a little further for you. The two games are World of Warcraft and Counter-Strike 1.6, teams like SK Gaming and mTw are already qualified, these two alone would ensure a fantastic tournament.

I have visited this event about 3 times, and I liked it every one of them. So, looking for a trip into gaming, or any of the other million disciplines available at the CeBit. Go check it out!
