The Popular Free-to-play MMO Golf Simulation Will Host a Series of Four
Tournaments This Summer
San Jose, Calif. (June 26, 2008) – San Jose-based online game
publisher, Gamescampus.com (www.gamescampus.com, run by OnNet USA),
announced today that it will launch the Hurricane Cup, a series of
four Shot-Online golf tournaments, this July. The tournaments will
take place in the following order throughout the month of July
Tournament 1: Prometheus National Tournament, Tournament 2: Freya
Classics Tournament, Tournament 3: The Player’s Tournament and
Tournament 4: Potter’s Bank Championship. The game can be downloaded
and played for free at http://shotonline.gamescampus.com/index.asp.
The Hurricane Cup is a championship where players participate in online
golf tournaments to earn points. Points are awarded to the top ten
players of each of the four tournaments, and then combined at the end
of the fourth tournament to determine the overall winner from the
series.
The top three players of the Hurricane Cup will win a sponsorship deal
from Hurricane that gives them a full set of non-repairable clubs and
the first-place winner will receive a full set of repairable Hurricane
golf clubs. Each tournament purse will also include in-game currency,
GamesCampus cash, and other in-game items as prizes.
Like real life golf tournaments, each of the four tournaments will run
weekly and last four days (Thursday through Sunday). The first in the
series will commence on July 03, 2008 and run through July 06, 2008.
The subsequent tournaments will be scheduled as follows: Tournament 2:
July 10, 2008 through July 13, 2008; Tournament 3: July 17, 2008
through July 20, 2008 and Tournament 4: July 17, 2008 through July 20,
2008. The Hurricane Cup invites anyone from newbies to experienced
players to participate, as long as they make the cut!
“We are very pleased to announce our new Shot-Online Hurricane Cup
tournament series to our players,” said David Chang, Executive Vice
President of Marketing and Business Development for Gamescampus.com.
“We are expecting a huge turnout for the competition and are looking
forward to seeing who will make the cut.”
