Auravision has announced that Fatal1ty, the world?s best known PC gamer and recent Doom 3 champ, will provide a competitive exhibition at the 2005 International CES to be held January 6-9, 2005 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The event is billed as ?The CES-Fatal1ty Ultimate Gaming Shootout? and is being presented by ABIT Computer and Creative Labs in association with AMD. This event will be housed in the Central Plaza just outside of the Las Vegas Convention Center. The Ultimate Gaming Shootout is a new feature of the International CES, which is the world?s largest annual technology tradeshow.
?I?m very excited to participate in the ultimate video gaming shootout at the International CES,? commented Johnathan ?Fatal1ty? Wendel. ?I welcome any and all challengers to play against me at the event, which draws gamers from around the world.? ?Showcasing these gaming events with Fatal1ty, ABIT, Creative Labs and AMD, helps bring attention to this dynamic product category,? said Karen Chupka, vice president of conferences and events for the Consumer Electronics Association, the producer of the International CES. ?These competitions will bring additional energy and fun to the Central Plaza, which promises to be a must-attend venue at the show.?
Fatal1ty Shootouts are competitions open to event attendees who want the chance to play against the world?s best-known professional gamer. Competitions consist of 1-on-1 matches for five minutes, or six frags (points), whichever comes first. Prizes are awarded for any points scored, with $5000 going to the first challenger to defeat Fatal1ty at CES. Additional valuable prizes will be awarded to other contestants who also have what it takes to beat Fatal1ty.
Fatal1ty Shootouts are open to fellow gamers of all skill levels that wish to test their abilities against the world?s best known gamer. Shootouts will be contested on Fatal1ty/PWX concept systems as at all previous events. Fatal1ty Shootouts are presently being held at a number of European events on Fatal1ty?s Euro Tour II and have also been contested at The Great Wall of China, in Moscow?s Red Square, and London?s Leicester Square.
