Thursday, 9 am: The Games Convention 2005 opened its gates. Just ten minutes later the crowds have arrived in hall 3. Their destination: the Intel Shuttle ESL Arena! The grandstands were overcrowded immediately and that's how it stayed the whole first day. The visitors followed thrilling matches in FIFA 2005 and Warcraft 3. Many left their seats in imperative cases - just like the exclusive Unreal Tournament 2007 presentations. The Arena turns into a prohibited area for all visitors aged under 18. But no reason to leave at all! The Free-Gaming Area invites everyone for hot gaming pleasure at about 100 gaming stations. They can choose from Black&White2 and World of Warcraft. At Friday the pros take over the Intel Shuttle ESL Arena. But not just for show matches, they are about to open the 7th season of the ESL Pro Series with the Intel Friday Night Game. Summing it up: Be sure not to miss the Intel Shuttle ESL Arena - hall 3, booth A40/B50 - on Games Convention 2005 in Leipzig/Germany.
