Virtual Kumite 4

(Frag Fest 1 translates to Virtual Kumite 4 in Swedish.)

February 23rd, 2002
The tournaments are coming faster and faster now, and Microsoft Xbox brings us new technology for our gaming pleasure.
Breaking from hand to hand fighting games, we move to the first person shooter front for the first time.
Games
Halo for XboxPlayers
Brady, Cruz, Jonah, Josh, Nick

Results
Players enjoyed 4 player mode for the first time. Scoring Kills + Assists – Deaths, the game became horrifically unbalanced. By the end of the first 5 rounds, Nick had 33, the next highest score was 2, and then scores went into negative numbers. So we scraped the scoring and everyone just tried to kill Nick. Nick versus 3 players at a time! The other players rotated in, and everyone failed, even at capture the flag! But that’s to be expected, Nick had 3 targets and the team only had one.
I must admit I did expect to win this tournament, every other player except Jonah had never played before, and I had been playing for weeks. That had something to do with skipping the trophy. Instead of a trophy we had a Surprise package from Archie Mcphee. Finger puppet roaches, glow in the dark skulls, gila monsters, growing body parts, and glow in the dark spaghetti and meat balls. These are a few of my favorite things!

In spite of the unbalance, Brady’s cries of “No! One more time!”, Cruz’s anger, and Josh’s skydiving, I believe this will be the preferred game for the next tournament! Jonah already scheduled a rematch for three days after!
