fg_contest FearedGamers.net and their partner IZ3D have teamed up to start a very cool TF2 Competition for anyone interested.    Everyone who participates (registers and submits content) will receive a FREE IZ3D T-shirt.! 

The contest is broken into two parts and teams can register for both events to increase their chances of winning.  The first part is a TF2 Video Contest and requires a team of 3 people.  Each person on the winning team for this video event will receive a Creative FATAL1TY 3.5mm gold-plated Connector Circumaural Gaming Headset.  The second event is a TF2 Screenshot Comic Contest and the pictures for the comics must be taken from TF2 in-game play.  The prize for the comic event is a kick a** RAZER Diamondback 3G Earth Green 7 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB 3G infrared 1800 dpi Gaming Mouse The CEO, CTO, and VP of Marketing will be judging the submissions, so mentioning or incorporating iZ3D in your project may very well be beneficial. Submissions must be in by January 21st, 2008!

I am going to be forming at least 2 teams of 3PG members to submit content to the competitions. Godling is going to be writing up a storyboard and Blades is going to be doing the video production. We'll need people to help script some events and come up with ideas to do the video and comic on.  If you would like to be on one of the 3PG teams for this contest, reply in this thread and lets steal the show!

tf2_nemesisI wanted to thank everyone who attended our first TF2 Captains Night.  It was a great success with about 40 people lined up ready to be picked for a team.  We almost had enough at one point to run two servers with four captains.   We got some great suggestions for improving the server and tweaking some of the fun mods we run.  Everyone who participated got a 1 month reserved slot to all our game servers here on 3 Point Games.  We also duplicated the server to another one just like it so everyone out there can enjoy WoZeR's awesome modifications .  

Special Shout Out goes to Feared Gamers and 6th Armored Division for posting the event on their site and rounding up their clan/community members to frag with us. 

Great Games were had by all and we expect to make this a tradition.

tf2_nemesis3 Point Games is going to be resurrecting on old tradition we used to do in NS - Captains Night

Basically, we all get on TeamSpeak and elect two captains who will take turns picking  people for their team.  Players will move to separate channels in TeamSpeak, choose their class and prepare their strategy for the round.   The game begins when everyone types "ready" .  When that round is won, we switch sides and play again with the same team before picking teams again and doing another map.  

We will be using the 2x Crit server and all its fun mods.  The server will be passworded and only people in TeamSpeak will be given the password. 

Where: Crazy TF2! [#2] [2x CRITS!, TONS OF FUN MODS!!!] gs3.3ptgames.com:27015 or 70.87.162.53:27015
When: Saturday, December 29, 2007 - 10pm EST / 7pm PST

AWARD (new feature) -  Anyone who participates in this first tournament will receive 1 month reserved slot to all our game servers.  If you already have a reserved slot, you will be awarded an additional month of exclusive access.  

Thats how we roll.

GeForce 9 for XMas? PDF  | Print |  E-mail

geforce_newlogoLooking to get a high end GeForce 8 for Christmas?  You might want to hold off for a couple months with the GeForce 9 series on the horizon.  The lack of competition in the graphics card market has sadly led to a content Nvidia.  Nvidia has split from its strategy for the GeForce 7 and 8, releasing a high-end card for Christmas and mid-end cards the following year, and will not be releasing the GeForce 9 this Christmas.  Instead, Nvidia will be release a new batch of mid end GeForce 8 cards this Christmas and the GeForce 9 cards later next year.  So if you want to run your new games at the highest graphical options (or even Vista), I would suggest you hold off on the horde of mediocre cards coming out this holiday season.
