Official Game Titles For WCG 2012 Announced


One big question arises every year as the annual WCG (World Cyber Games) comes closer to date - What would the official game titles be for the year? For the norms, Dota (now Dota 2) have always been on their list for the past few years, and it would probably be one of the most highly-popular title during the annual tournament too, or well at least, for me.

Likewise, Dota 2 is officially one of the games to be celebrated this year, and was also the first game to be confirmed in the list of titles. But recently, the officials of WCG has unveiled the rest of the games, as follow:

Official Game Titles:

  • Cross Fire
  • Dota 2
  • Starcraft 2
  • Warcraft 3
  • Fifa 12

Promotional Game Titles:

  • Counter-Strike Online
  • Dota Allstars
  • World of Tanks

Personally, the games announced are pretty much expected, besides the fact that League of Legends have been mercilessly taken out, leaving Dota 2 standing centre-front. But what's your thought on this? What games do you think should have been included? Drop your comments below!

WCG Asian Championship 2012 To Be Held In Malaysia For The First Time

Competitive gaming, or more professionally known as E-Sports, is gaining popularity and fan support  in Malaysia through recent years, which was especially accelerated in 2007 when the first WCG (World Cyber Games) Asian Championships was introduced to this part of the world.

This year, it is set for a huge change and would definitely heighten up the E-Sports scene in Malaysia as the WCG Asian Championships 2012 has recently been confirmed to take place at Kuala Lumpur. Or more specifically, from the 7th to 9th of September, Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre.

After years of hosting the annual championships in either Singapore or Indonesia, the day has finally come for Malaysia to show what we got.

As depicted on the poster above, Dota 2 has been confirmed to be part of one of the official tournament games. However, that is all the information available and when the rest of the games are unveiled, we will be updating further. Stay tuned, for the largest gaming showdown in Malaysia yet.
