The Electronicon Home Video Game Tournament

How do you describe a home console video game tournament? It's basically just a bunch of people sitting around a TV, talking trash, goofing on one another, while trying to beat each other at a video game, right? Well, that's everything that the Electronicon Home Video Game Tournament will be, except for one more thing: this one's for keeps.

Each of the winners in the Electronicon Home Video Game Tournament will recieve name recognition in the 1998 edition of The Official Book Of Video Game And Pinball World Records by Twin Galaxies founder Walter Day. This guarantees that the best of the video gamers attending Electronicon will have a chance at the ultimate bragging rights: immortality in print.

We're also designing a way cool certificate, suitable for framing, for each of the individual winners of the events, and we're also considering doing something REALLY cool for the overall winners of the single and multiplayer tourneys (the person who places highest in the most events). If that person is the same person, well, we'll just have to make them God or something.

We'll be having both 1 player and multiplayer competitive tournaments at Electronicon, and here are the events you can look forward to:

1 player events:

Multi-player events:
