At some point today, a fascinating email will be dispatched from AMD to roughly 15,000 of their most hardcore evangelists around the world known as the “Red Team.” Its contents? An invitation to happily crash Nvidia’s Game24 party in the name of PC gaming. I intercepted it.

“No one appreciates a good celebration of gaming more than AMD, as evidenced by our recent #AMD30Live webcast and the warm and humbling reception the event received from the enthusiast community,” the letter begins. “In that spirit, we’re intrigued that another graphics products company jumped on the #AMD30Live bandwagon this week by announcing a similar event on September 18th and 19th, called #Game24.”

You may have heard about Nvidia’s Game24 event. I suspect that AMD’s “intrigue” is due to the fact that Game24 resembles — at least in spirit — #AMD30Live, a webcast which celebrated 30 years of PC gaming and graphics, with nostalgic glances back at its history, as well as GPU giveaways, overclocking contests, and interviews with influential game developers and members of AMD’s product team.

Read that earlier today. Seems amd know something we don't because why send 100 fans to a launch event which could potentially result in loosing them if the new cards turn out to be awesome.
 
AMD just want coverage via Nvidias spotlight.

I highly doubt AMD know any more than you do about nvidias upcoming release. :)
 
Pretty desperate and seems AMD hierarchy are more interested in these kinds of silly games than actually doing their own things. I don't care either way but anyone above 12 should feel pretty embarrassed for AMD.
 
Not sure anyone cares enough to be embarrassed :S

And not that it matters but AMD did do their own thing, now Nvidia are replicating it.

Like you said though, just a silly game.
 
If they do turn up to it, they'll only see that the grass is indeed greener on the green side.:D

Quite funny though tbh.:)
 
The email continues: “We believe there is no such thing as a bad celebration of gaming, so we warmly encourage you to attend this event in person. Game24 events will be conveniently located in Chicago, IL, Indianapolis, IN, Mission Viejo, CA , Stockholm and Shanghai.”
