<p>XBox Live, in conjunction with <a href="http://www.ubisoft.com">Ubisoft</a> will be providing something different for i23. The custom-build chillout area will consist of comfortable seating and numerous XBox consoles setup on large plasma screens with the latest titles. This "gaming oasis" will allow attendees of our i23 event to take some time out from the frenetic LAN gaming to relax in the comfort of the XBox Live enclosure.</p>
<p>The XBox Live stand will also play host to several tournaments at times during the event where attendees can battle it out for some great prizes. Signup for these tournaments will be handled at the event. See the pictures below for an artist's impression for how the XBox Live chillout stand at i23 should look like.</p>

<p>Two of the key titles being featured will be Ubisoft's <a href="http://www.brothersinarmsgame.com">Brothers in Arms</a> and <a href="http://www.splintercell.com">Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory</a>. Brothers in Arms: The Road to Hill 30 is based on a true story from World War 2. You start out parachuting in behind enemy lines during the airdrops just before the Normandy landings of June 1944. Your fellow soldiers are scattered all over the French countryside, yet you must try and gather yourselves together and achieve your objectives. The game is in stores now on PC, XBox and PS2.</p>
<p>Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory is next in the highly successful Splinter Cell series. Sam Fisher is back once again to fight a war of stealth. Fans of the previous Splinter Cell titles will be in for a real treat with this one. Set for launch just after i23, attendees at the event will get a chance to try out the game before its release!</p>
<p>The i23 LAN party is taking place in just a few days time, over 25-28 March 2005 at Newbury Racecourse, Berkshire. With over 1000 players already confirmed for the event, it's looking to be one of the best LAN events ever! Places are rapidly running out, so head over to <a href="http://www.multiplay.co.uk/signuppage3.asp?event=56">sign up</a> to join in the fun!</p>
