Halo 2 Worldwide Champion

The Xbox Live sponsored Halo 2 Worldwide Championship kicked off several months ago as players in 24 different countries began competing to crown regional winners. A series of mini events continued throughout each country until eventually one single person was chosen to represent in the world finals. Today the finals took place over Xbox Live in a series of matches that would separate the best of the best and set the stage for the grand finale. While nobody at Bungie was in attendance for the finals, our contacts on the Live team did pass along some information regarding todays games. The final pool of players came down to Japan, Germany, Netherlands, USA, France and Australia. The player from Japan won his heat giving the American, Aussie and French players their second loss and eliminating them from the competition. In the following round, Germany suffered their second defeat setting the stage for a Japan vs. Netherlands world finale. Apparently it was a close match but King Tuur of the Netherlands pulled ahead and never looked back. Congratulations to Mr. Tuur who becomes the first ever Worldwide Halo 2 Champion and also the proud recipient of a 50" Samsung DLP HDTV, a Samsung DVD Player/Recorder, a personalized world champion trophy (featuring a 24k gold Halo 2 game disc) AND $1,500 in cash. Good stuff. More information about the Xbox Live sponsored tournament and profiles of the finalists from each region can be found at Xbox.com.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MasterApu You know why we, the Dutchies are dissing you. Because everytime on live you Americans got the host in a game and win of us, everytime you say we owned you foreigners. And we get sick of you. Because always if you Americans got host we got yellow connections. And when we got host you just got green ones. And you are telling that we thanks everything to America. If Colombus never had his sailing lessons in Spain (that's Europe if you didn't know that yet) America never would have been discovered. And you guys would still be Indians. The third thing. You think Zyos and all that other MLG guys are the best. But why are they the best? They are only the best because gaming is a bigger issue in America and you got a lot more tournaments and sponsors and -blam!-. Ow by the way King Tuur became 4th on the World Cyber Games in Halo 1 when Halo 1 was for the first year at the WCG. And how can you see that kids like the OGRE's are better if they never play against Dutch players. Because levels and matchmaking are a -blam!- way to compare skills. Because MM is all about host. And we got a lot of great Dutch guys playing. You would be suprised of it. The only problem is that gaming is not so big over here then over there. Ow yeah about your American kid that contested the WC, terry 15, he's a cheater/booster. What ever you wanna call it. He also did it at your national qualifying. 2 clanmates of him contested the national qualify. So they made the deal that terry 15 could kill them all the time. He knew where they were, his clanmates, he discussed it. Great gamers you got over there. Always finding new ways of cheating, modding, standbying and now host stealing. Way to go America! At last Tuur won the World Championship and no one can take that away of him. Off course the WCG is the real WC. And Tuur will contest that one too. But it's hard to say who's is the best halo 2 player because it's a team game. And halo 2 is not a real skillfull game. I hope I made clear what the point of the Dutchies is.[/quote] You are a shining light of racial arrogance, bravo my friend. I'm -blam!- American and I don't do any of that bull-blam!-, yet you're accusing all of us for a handful of Americans that you played against, that's really pitiful. If you want to make a big deal out of it and say Halo 2 isn't a skillful game just because maybe Zyos or the Ogres are the best, then I guess that's your problem, isn't it? And you know a brunt of the modding and hacking is going on OVERSEAS? I might as well say that Dutchland is a bunch of arrogant asshats that only know how to put other cultures down, but that wouldn't be nice would it? And that really wouldn't be true just because they have someone like you and bullettime acting like spokespeople of the damn nation's gamers. I'm pretty sure many of the Dutch gamers would rip you a new one if you were to spout off like this in front of them. You're not making Dutchland or any other gaming regions look any better, you're just plastering their name all over your argument. Oh yes, and the Vikings discovered America before Columbus. Please stop being a whiner, it makes you look bad. Also, I find your grasp of the English language lacking. [Edited on 8/5/2005]
