"The 2010 event is expected to attract more than a thousand attendees, with more than $AU10,000 in cash and thousands of dollars more in prizes being given away during the event
Reloaded is hosted by a wide variety of volunteers from all over the South Australian gaming landscape, and attracts gamers from all over the country to what is now known as Australia's largest BYO PC and Console gaming event.
In 2010, Reloaded will host more competitions, including Australia's largest Counterstrike Source LAN tournament, but will also have more free activities inside the event, including anime screenings, costume competitions, digital art and music competitions and a huge free play console area where you can come and try it out even if you are not a hardcore gamer."

Counter-Strike: Re-Source is basically a compilation of countless textures, models, skins, shaders and more that aims to greatly improve the visuals of this 2004 Counter-Strike game."
We know what most of you will say – it’s not! Some will say it’s trying too hard and some will say it is perfect.
I keep jumping back into this.
The sheer number of player numbers, decades after release of the original CS is astounding. Its always over half a million!
The gunplay is on another level.
I am a big fan of the gunplay in this as well - creating that fairly easy to pick up but very hard to master element I look for in games
If you love shooters like CS GO, you must look into Rainbow Six Siege, more intelligent, squad based and tactical, with every choice having consequences - its really an FPS Chess game..
@SolidStoner
Playing Siege makes me ask one question - if I'm going to play a game of this style, why not play the best one: Counter-Strike?
While it's a great option for console only people, if you are already a CS player, there's no reason to take a step down. The microtransaction-encouraging progression alone takes it down a notch (locking powerful characters behind extremely high credit requirements).
I just couldn't get into it. I've tried so many times but I just suck at FPS games haha.
That said I do enjoy watching it pros play it from time to time.

''At this point, everyone has heard about the scummy behaviour surrounding Counter-Strike GO gambling and two bell ends exploiting the trust of their tween fans. It oddly says a fair amount about the current state of Counter-Strike, a series once treasured as the retreat from the gimmicks of main stream multiplayer.''
One thing that Aussies need is more LANs for both PC's and especially Consoles. These guys do a great job with all of the platforms, and their Halo ones are great.
That's a decent prize pool!!
