LiquidPalooza will be here before you know it! Please note that there is no assigned seating this year - first come, first seated. 

DICE and EA have announced that the Battlefield 3 multiplayer beta will be open all players from around the world on September 29, 2011. The beta is set in Paris on the Operation Metro map, where players work their way from lush parks on the outskirts of the city to a dark, bombed-out metro station, to the vibrant streets around the Paris stock exchange. Two elite tactical units square off in the series’ popular Rush Mode. One side takes the offensive by attacking M-COM stations while the opposing squad defends and protects.The Battlefield 3 multiplayer beta will be available for the PC, PS3 and 360. If you pre-ordered the digital PC version from Origin then you will be granted early access to the beta starting on September 27th. Also, all customers that pre-ordered a Limited Edition of Medal of Honor will also receive early access to the beta.

Added a new Workstations section under the media area which features random workstations from around the internets.

E3 is upon us and late 2011 through early 2012 will be a great time for gamers with the release of blockbuster titles such as Mass Effect 3, NFS: The Run, and Battlefield 3 just to name a few. 

Speaking of, Battlefield 3 has received an official launch date of October 25th in North America. To coincide with this release we are considering moving the LAN Party (liquidpalooza 6.0) from October 7th-10th to  October 28th-31st to coincide with the launch of BF3. Discuss in the official forums. The R.S.V.P. form will be taken offline until we can all agree on a date.

The old site is still online and available for archive purposes, but the new site will provide much needed features for organization, event planning, community relations, and communications.
