2009 edition did not happen, but 2010 will. World’s top gamers will be able to compete during the 7 th Electronic Sports Wold Cup™ 2010 Grand Final (ESWC 2010) in Paris, France from June 30 to July 4, 2010.

And TM is also in

Nice
TM in Disneyland ® Paris, that's fun ^_^

it's a joke. they honestly can't think people will just forget about what happened with ESWC. it doesn't matter that they didn't buy the company that are in debt. the brand is still very damaged and to gain any sort of respect, they should pay the players the money that is missing.

and after reading about this Cosse guy and his previous projects, i'm far from positive. here's a recent example of his and DiP's achievements: http://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=1790651#pid1790651

and this is just 1 example. apperantly there was a big event in 2003 aswell which was a total disaster and where the prize money was not paid out.

lol, you're such a pro gamer

At least they're trying, a tournament with no prizes is better than nothing I think.

[bmg4ever]

there is a major difference zooz, i have no problem with anybody running a tournament without prizemoney as long as he does not say that there will be prize money!

if you look and inform yourself about the guys behind the new eswc you will find a huge history of lies, all started with the epic fail event Click Arena 2003 and 50.000 dollars of until today unpaid prizemoney. Already for the history Cosse in my opinion should be in jail and now hes promising not existing money again that will be never paid out for sure! But ye this does not seem to be illegal in our world today... so you cant do more then warn players to attend there.

if anybody of the players attending there in the end will expect anything more then a self paid trip to disneyland to visit with some TM friends and have some nice holidays in paris then he must be more stupid then a bread

virtual tennis \o/

[Zooz]

Hmm, to me it looked like there was a new organizer. But if it's the same people again and they're promising large amounts of money again,

[AlexKool]

ESWC 2010 competitors will vie for $200,000 in prize money divided between the World Champions and their challengers in several tournaments

Meh. So after this there will be a greater dept?

[Beta64]

That website looks really unprofessional. And I doubt any serious tournament would use Virtua Tennis.

Plus, note that it's "Trackmania ESWC" (i.e. the original Nations, most likely) and the lack of any Quake.

I'll assume phony until proved otherwise.
