(GotFrag) -The second regular season of the CGS's Region 1 gets underway this week with some new faces and games. Team 3D, with a hot-rodded Source lineup, takes on the Dallas Venom in night one as GotFrag's coverage of the league's second season begins. Forza Motorsports 2 makes its debut as the new racing game for the season.

Season "startup" matches take place nightly June 2-Friday, June 13, 2008 at the Electronic Arts LA Campus. The show then moves to the Barker Hangar, Santa Monica Airport June 16th for the remainder of the season to be aired on DirecTV.

Day 2 of the regular season brings a classic matchup by way of NY.3D facing off against LA Complexity. 3D will be sporting their new mix of veteran CS 1.6 players with the "new blood" of pure Source players in Jon "juan" Mumm and Nick "nicKn0iT" Nowakowski on the CSS squad. Complexity will be bringing new recruit Corey "hanes" Hanes in replacement of Marcus "zet" Sundstrom.

June 2 though June 13 is still part of the regular season. However those matches take place at the EA Los Angeles Campus and are shown live via webcast at thecgs.com

Starting June 16 though July 7th, the teams mover over to a TV studio where the matches will then be shown live on DIRECTV. The video feeds will then be available on the website 24 hours after the match.

Hope that helps :)

wOo~ carolina core :D:D

#pandemic #sealteam

Thanks for the help #12!!

Complexity's CSS team dominating and the rest failing. :(

#afterwind all day

wasn't the DOA Male in Optx > coL 5-4 and not 5-1?!

mARci`

Are coL not fed up with this ridiculous organisation? They easily win their css game but get battered in everything and overall, they lose. What is the point..

lets stop talking about coL, it was obvious their season 2 was going to mimic their season 1 performance. but instead lets talk about how bad chicago chimera got outplayed in virtually EVERY game by the carolina core. sure they source team is no where near as good as the cores, but 13-5, common now. The most suprising thing is, i heard from a lot of people that chompr and jasonx were as good at forza as they were at pgr, the people they can rely on for that 1st/2nd 1-2 punch, however this is only the first match, but it already isnt looking good for them in the racing department. and the doa players from the draft looked like average selections at best. I really see chicago and 3d switching roles from last season. chicago may not be the absolute worst, but they will be one of the 2 worst teams in this season, and 3d will be one of the top 2 teams this season as well.

3D ooooooo~

Some big upsets coming from coL. I thought PL would dominate NCW and I thought Kreegan would end up with a win. Obviously... it didn't end up that way. But hey, at least Belle got a round on Vanessa. Let's see if coL can fix their mistakes and beat 3D.

lawl

Belle: 1-5

Vanessa accidentally pause the game again? rofl

I'm glad poor decisions in the draft are coming back to bite Compexity and Chimera (Complexity obviously to the greater extent).

wow 1� - Core
2� - 3D
3� - venom
4� - Optx
5� - coL
6� - Chimera
kkkk

#17 -- I believe the point is that CS isn't the end-all, be-all of competitive gaming.

nice2watch 3d x venom @ fifa

stermy surprised me :O

I Started the FURY craze!

GO 3D!!!

gwan 3D!

CGS should make it live on srtv for css... they really make a css fan down >?(

gogo 3D!

CGS is just so disappointing. Every game is uninteresting to me, but maybe I'm a minority? If they had 1.6, H3, WC3, DoA, or any other decent game in the lineup it would be awesome. But they don't. They have Forza (which NO-ONE PLAYS or gives a cr_p about) and they have DOA (which again, not many people play). Two very negligible games in terms of watchability and playerbase.

CSS is a poor choice because there is a far more developed game called 1.6 (commentators who say that CSS is less strategically diverse and interesting because it has not had enough time to mature might be right - but WHO CARES? 1.6 is already a developed game with a lot of depth and strategy, why try and develop some game that doesn't already have that base?).

FIFA is the only game I can really say that I might be interested in. At the same time, however, I'm not. It's not because it's a bad game but rather because it sucks to watch. When you watch a soccer match on TV it's because you value the excellence of the teamplay AND the individual players playing the game. In a stupid videogame simulation of that original real life game you lose all of that.

In general, if a show is to depict and celebrate VIDEOGAMES, then games which really are VIDEOGAMES should be picked to be celebrated! Forza is a simulation and so is FIFA. Even Mario Kart Wii would be more interesting to me than Forza because it's a real VIDEOGAME! If I want to watch cars racing I will watch some nascar or F1 on television. But I don't. I want to watch some VIDEOGAMES. So stop trying to force viewers to watch a videogame of a sport with huge interest surrounding it (not to mention depth of interest) because the videogame will NEVER measure up to the real life version. EVER. I mean, if I could watch REAL trained soldiers try and take out other real trained soldiers in the format of a game then I would certainly watch the real version instead of CS.

i really dont like djwheat, that fool studders, says pointless comments, and messes up half the time.... he should be cut. AND WTF did they have swoozie up there for the cs match of optx vs venom, that guy doesnt know anything about cs, and he wasnt drafted, that guy should just go away and try to get on a team next year

#vanskap

i think belle beat her last season's round total? she has 4 now!

gogo 3D!!! <3

wow 3D are f*cking great!

3D =)!

#31 its because they try to add too much, why do you think Starcraft works in Korea? In addition to having a population that can actually enjoy a game with depth, they focus on 2 games, StarCraft and Warcraft3, mainly SC though. CGS tries the 5+ games formula and it just doesn't work, CS:S or 1.6 it doesn't matter they need more time and now its a frag fest. They need to get rid of stuff like FIFA and DoA and keep those for the tournaments so that they can give the due airtime for games that require the time.

hey guys where can I find this CS:S demos?

3D reigning supreme

I actually have a lot of fun watching doa, they should of stuck with the previous version pgr, Forza collisions are just so crazy... the cars tap each other and they fly all over the place. For cs they need a pro player to commentate, I've been saying they should fly shaguar into commentate to give more of a in depth knowledge of the game. The new Fifa seems a lot slower then the old version they should of stuck with 07.(unless Stermy is playing )

interesting CS:S matches tonight... whoa!

when will coL realize that belle absolutely blows.

is belle the doaf player for col?

nvm yep what a dumb decision to bring her back

Optx look like a team of artilliery getting bliz't by tanks and infantry. Where those dirty shOcktrOOps optx had, oh wait pOs ph-Am get veterans retirement. Now they zombler mercs ^_-

BELLEFTW

If 3D coL still play cs1.6, play against with fnatic mym mtw attax, hahaha

PH@M cheats at 1.6

#mrevolution

lol belle is so bad.

FREE SPM

Pretty funny Lake blows yet another season for coL banking on terribeLLe.
