SK Gaming reported one week ago the launch of e-Stars Seoul 2008 digital culture festival, where the first Continental Cup will be held. Electronic sports history prints another footprint.

This week the committee has revealed the official nominees for Continental Cup 2008. Sixteen Counter-Strike 1.6 teams, and WarCraft III players from all over the world have been divided to Team East and Team West's nominee list. The Continental Cup differs from other tournaments as it will be using ThreeSome and DeathMatch types in the matches. The French player Yoan "ToD" Merlo was not selected due to refusing to play some of the matches at e-Stars Seoul 2007 event because of the lack of air conditioning.
