The games that we will have tournaments for now are as follows:
Street Fighter IV
Soul Calibur IV
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Guitar Hero 3
Rock Band
The BYOS (Bring your own setup) tournaments can be anything but not excluding:
Halo 3
Call of Duty 4
Gears of War 2
DDR
Naruto
Bleach
Keep in mind, with the BYOC setup, there is also 'no excuse' for us not having your favorite game! If you have the interest, we've got dedicated space for you!
All you FPS gamers, please be aware that FPS event's require lots of hardware (TV's, Consoles, Controllers...) and right now we are lacking. (unless you just want to play one on one) Since not everyone plays FPS games we can't fully create the necessary setups to support a full tournament. Last year we had a staff member who stepped up to coordinate hardware efforts** for GoW 2. So far, no one has done this, thus FPS games have been sorely neglected, and remain in BYO status.
** A "Hardware coordinator" is someone who has helped taken care of the logistics of event hardware for at least their game. This mostly includes finding enough gamers with the hardware to make an event run, and working with them to make sure it shows up at the event!!!
(Keep in mind - OKgamers is a site to network gamers and let us know when things happen. We have a volunteer staff that help at events like this simply to help get the word out about the site. We only own what we personally have, thus the 'byo' mentality.)
So with all this in mind, we hope to see you guys there!
Update!!!!!
The days and times for the tournaments are now here and all BYOC games ae subject to canceling if there are not at least 8 people signed up for them by the time they are supposed to start and if there is not any hardware for the game.
