For our gamer readers, the World Cyber Games 2006 is underway, with preliminary rounds currently going on in six continents. Games include: Counterstrike 1.6, Fifa Soccer: 2006, Most Wanted, Brood War, Winter Assault and WarCraft III: Frozen Throne for the PC and for the Xbox, Project Gotham Racing 3 and Dead or Alive 4. More than 700 players from 70 countries will descend onto Monza, Italy from October 18th to 22nd for the grand finals. Not just for kids, serious cash can be made here; last year's tournament had $2,500,000 USD in total prize money.
