MANILA, Philippines — The Philippines’ top gamers fought but checked out early in all of the games at the World Cyber Games 2008 in Cologne, Germany, according to the game’s official website.
None of the Filipino video gamers were able to break through round 16, just three steps closer to the championship finals which was held November 10.
The eight-man Filipino team joined four of the 14 games included in the WCG 2008. These are the PC games “Command and Conquer 3,” “Counterstrike 1.6” and “WarCraft III: Frozen Throne.”
The country also sent one player for the Xbox 360 version of Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock.
Nevertheless, the Filipino gamers did manage to win a few rounds early on before facing more formidable players.
