We have the pleasure to announce that TrackMania Nations Forever is selected by the WCG committee as an official title for the 2009 edition of the famous online competition.

The WCG is a global e-sports tournament. More than one million players all around the world will participate to this event between March and October, to win the right to represent his country on November in China!
Thus, between the 11st and the 15th of November, 78 nations will travel to Chengdu, China, to compete in global finals on the current best video games.
Only the best video games were selected by the WCG committee… and it is a pleasure to announce that TrackMania Nations Forever is part of the official selection for this 2009 edition.

Hi there,

I just created this forum account to ask a question:
Now that it is anounced to be an offical titel of the 2009 WCG and there also is a special WCG-Edition going to be available is it possible to set the same price for this game for the different ways of distribution?

What I mean is:
WCG-Version = EUR 26,99
Steam-Version = EUR 39,99

If the price of the Steam-Version would be as low, as it allready is in stores, I think there would be even more people, that would be upgrading from TMNF to TMUF via Steam.

Can Steam users hope to see a updated price for this great game in the near future?

Great news! Especially with ESWC dead, TM always had a big part of the exposure thanks to this huge tournaments.

So anything known yet about how you qualify/participate?

@H4sT3 - just look at the 1st Florent's sentence - "We have the pleasure to announce that TrackMania Nations Forever is selected by the WCG committee" - it means that TMNF, a free game is chosen...

Ugh, such B.S. that the U.S. doesn't seem to be participating in the Trackmania part of the tournament, or I would've spent every waking hour this summer practicing.
