    It has been a long two months since the AMP Your Game Tour kicked off its first event in Halifax, Nova Scotia.  Although the tour was very tiring and involved a lot of hard work and long days, it was certainly an amazing adventure overall.  Having it be the first, and biggest national video game tour in Canada, there were a lot of expectations, yet after the first stop had been completed, the nerves and worries were all washed away.  It was a very successful summer and it could not have gone any better than it did.

    Thousands upon thousands of gamers from across the Country were finally united into one gaming arena.  It was one of the most pleasant sights to see when casual and serious gamers gathered around the gaming stations, just doing what they love to do: Game. Whether it was playing on the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 or Nintendo Wii, everyone was able to enjoy the ultimate gaming experience that the AMP Your Game National Gaming Tour was able to offer.  Also, for the first time for many - casual gamers or first time competitive gamers coming out to an event – people of all ages were introduced and able to see a little into competitive gaming.  People were able to get a little look and insight at how competitive gaming is becoming bigger and well, is just plain fun.


    And now, the thirty-six finalists of the AMP Your Game’s “Search for the Pro” competition have been selected over the period of two months.  Yet, only one from Canada will finally be able to join the AMP Pro Team in their journey of non-stop practicing to become a force in the Halo 3 scene.  At last, the Pro Team shall soon be complete.  It will be time to sit down and play and practice for the next season where they hope to shine and prove that hard work can pay off.  MLG Toronto will be the last stop for the AMP Your Game National Gaming Tour where they will be located inside the Fan Expo of 2008.  The top 5 finalists will be announced and have their chance to impress the AMP Team.
