It's good news and bad news here, the bad news first: "It is with a sad and heavy heart that I announce that GamesCon in the Bay Area is cancelled and that GamesCon has decided close it's doors," is the way the letter from GamesCon founder Mark "Rick" Chandler kicks off, with the unfortunate news that this event/trade show that aimed to be the E3 for gamers has been cancelled, and the organization is now defunct. The site has the full press release detailing the reasons for this unfortunate turn of events. On a happier note, word from the Razer CPL Event is that admission prices for this upcoming $100,000 tournament have been lowered to $30.00 in advance, and $40.00 at the door. Online registration is scheduled to begin Tuesday, February 1 at 5:00 PM EST (4:00 PM Central Time). Finally, Eurogamer.net's xsi coverage is complete, with a wrap-up of the event.
