Last Oct. 29 – 31 were the dates that marked the three-day gaming event at Cyberzone, SM North Edsa Annex which we came to know as Pinoy Gaming Festival 2011. The three day event was filled with gaming tournaments for DotA and Starcraft 2. Local Cosplay celebrity, Alodia Gosiengfiao also graced the event on it’s first day while the cosplay competition was held on the last day.

Before you start going all googly-eyed and all OMFGFTWBBQAWESOMESAUCE about it, the game is not yet out till 2011. When exactly, well that’s still up in the air and the biggest speculation on the game.
Oh, just to make things clear, ICEFROG is on this project with Valve. That’s the first thing I made sure to check upon hearing the news. Being a former player of this WCIII mod, I was pretty surprised that this news came out from joystiq and game informer.
