Meet-Ups in TX & UK, Updated Skyrim & ME Trilogy Fixes, Guild Wars 2 Beta
Howdy all,
Lots has been going on at the site. For starters, we have changed our URL to wsgf.org. If you use the old URL, you will be soft redirected to the new shorter URL, and all your old links will work. We've got a number of exciting events coming up.
Meet-Ups in Houston & London
Houston, TX - May 4th @ 9pm, at Joystix Classic Arcade & Pinball
On the first and last Friday of the month, Joystix Classic Arcade has an "all you can play" event. For $15 you can play any of 200+ classic arcade and pinball machines, with all machines set to free play. We're going to meet up and spend the evening hanging out and playing games.
Vote in this poll to let us know if you will be able to make it. Skip (site Founder/Owner), CrackerJackMack, Zencyde, The Destroyer and others are already scheduled to be there. I'll be in one of our new dark Texas Flag WSGF Logo t-shirts from CafePress, so come find me.
Joystix is located in Downtown Houston, right near Minute Maid Ballpark at 1820b Franklin Street.

Brighton, UK - Saturday July 7th at Rezzed Game Show
Delphium (a WSGF Admin) and Skid (a WSGF Editor) will be attending both days of the show. On the Friday both of them have managed to get press passes to the event, so hopefully they'll be getting you some inside information, videos of up coming games, and convince the developers to implement proper multi-monitor support.
On the Saturday however they will both be hanging around, so we invite you to come and join us and hang out. We'll be around all Friday, Saturday and part of Sunday as we'll, wearing WSGF t-shirts to make us easily identifiable and as such avoidable. If you'd like to grab a WSGF t-shirt as well, we've got two new dark UK-themed shirts. The first has the Union Jack and the WSGF logo. The second has the Union Jack and the RAF Roundel.
Tickets to the event are still available at time of posting this and cost £12 for a day pass or £20 for both days. More information can be found on the Rezzed website, www.rezzedgamesshow.com, as well as the games and stores there also plans to hosts tournaments at the event so its definitely worth checking out.

The tool launches with support for Borderlands, Battlefield 3, Bioshock 2, COD: Black Ops, COD: MW3, Driver San Francisco, Enemy Engaged 2, GRAW2, LA Noire, Mass Effect Trilogy, Mirror's Edge, RAGE, RE5, Singularity, Skydrift, Sonic Generations, Skyrim, Witcher 2, Transformers: WFC and Tribes: Ascend.
You can download the tool directly from flawlesswidescreen.org, and discuss it in this thread on the WSGF.
Guild Wars 2 Beta Weekend
If you've pre-purchased Guild Wars 2, you have access to the beta event this weekend. At this point, there doesn't look to be any International Servers. So, we are picking a NA and EU server for the WSGF Guild. Come hang out with us this weekend.
NA - Steamspur Mountains
EU - Elona Reach
