EA DICE and Virgin Gaming are hosting a major global tournament in 2012 for DICE’s upcoming first person shooter Battlefield 3.
The prize pot consists of $1.6 million, and the tournament is headlined as "The largest online console game tournament ever!" The tournament will be for both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and the sign up link on Virgin Gaming’s website can be found here.
Since the Battlefield 3 beta is currently live, it would definitely be a good idea to check it out, find some friends, and start honing skills for that massive prize pot!
