The idea of making a full return to journalism.
As you may have noticed, the last two years GVN has spent mostly running game tournaments and not doing so much in the jouralism field. Well, with the addition of a new member, Red Dragon, I am looking to slowly return to some of GVN's roots. It's a hard trek to follow back to the begining of where everything began. But it should be worth it. So stay tuned for some more lost gem features, maybe a game review or two and some interviews as we try to make GVN more than just a videogame tournamnt scene.

VGexpo tournaments November 21st-23rd
As it stands right now GVN has been asked to run some tournaments for Virtual Rush at the VGexpo. The VGexpo will be held at the Philadelphia Convention Center. I will Be there to run 4 tournaments split betwen Saturday Nov22nd and Sunday Nov 23rd. So far the only details I have recieed from my associates at VR is a gaurenteed $500 prize for first place. Also the pricing for getting into the expo is a 3 day pass for $25(by registering at their website) or $30 at the door. I am looking into the possiblity of that being lowere for people who only want to be there for the tournament.
