Finding the best CSGO gambling sites in 2019 is not that easy. CSGO gambling has had a chequered past to say the least, with many sites being shut down and penalised because of illegal activity.

There is clearly a demand among some Counter-Strike lovers to bet on their favourite game but for the sector to be sustainable long-term, CSGO gambling sites must comply with the laws - primarily for the safety and security of esports fans but also for the sake of themselves.

Fancy Horse Makes Blizzard $2 Million in Four Hours
New in-game pet for World of Warcraft is generating sales of about $500,000 an hour, so far.
By Frank Cifaldi, 04/15/2010

The Blizzard Pet Store is offering two new virtual pets to World of Warcraft players today, one of which has generated over $2 million in sales in its first four hours.

The "Celestial Steed" (right) is, according to its description on the Blizzard Store, "freshly born from the Twisting Nether" and allows players to "travel in style astride wings of pure elemental stardust."

More research is of course necessary but as of press time, it is widely believed that the Celestial Steed may be the fanciest horse ever born.

The fancy horse costs $25 and offers no new abilities to players, only riding as fast as a character's riding skill will enable it to go.

According to wow.com, the download queue as of 1:45 Pacific time was at 80,000. At $25 a pop, this means that this noble steed has generated sales of $2 million since its approximate debut at 9:30 this morning, or around $500,000 an hour.

1UP has reached out to Blizzard for commentary from the horse, and will report back if he is available.

Tricking Quake Live 2 (57 comments)

Once upon a time during the Quake 3 era, a fraction of the players started tricking, enjoying themselves just with doing crazy short and long jumps, combined with impressive movement skill to do very cool tricks. A whole scene even started, called DeFRaG, where the focus does not lie on fragging but on moving only and this is no different for Quake Live.

After a very cool first tricking movie, Newbi from q3schools is proud to present a second episode of trickjumping within Quake Live in high quality: approximately 10 minutes of tricking, rendered at 1080p resolution, resulting in a massive 1.3 GB production file, say no more and just head over to your favorite mirror to watch the movie!

It has been over 7 years since my last update. Obviously, there won't be any more. I always meant to post the occasional update but never found the time or the desire. As with most things in life, our priorities change as life goes on, and so do we.

The pages of Methos Quake contain some moments and demos from the gaming world that we can all share. I'm pretty sure that my memory of all the bad times and stressful moments has faded enough for me to think that it was so much fun for all those years, and for the most part, it was. There are incredible moments that I will never forget and they will always bring a smile to my face.

There were so many amazing people from everywhere involved in Quake. When it started, it was only some local friends, then it was people in the same city attending lan parties, then larger lans, then high speed internet connections that brought people together from further and further away. Then tournaments that brought in the best players from all over the world, sometimes for big prizes, sometimes for nothing more than bragging rights.

Carmac: "make it about the champions" (37 comments)

In the second part of his 1on1 interview Poland Michal "Carmac" Blicharz answers questions about the goals he set about accomplishing upon joining ESL as the product manager of the Intel Extreme Masters.

Why does Carmac feel more emphasis was needed on the continental finals? What is significant about spacing out playoff games from those within the same round and the following one? Carmac reflects on his life as a soon to be 30 year old and the good things which have come from it and some perhaps missed opportunities. Carmac also talks briefly about season V of IEM and which games are likely to be featured.

The interview can be viewed at SK Gaming, as well as the first part for those who haven't seen it yet.
