We have a rich history at X-Topia that you may enjoy to read about. We no longer keep our records by hand, but you can read our old links and see into our past. Warning this is into our OLD archives, the looks and links below may not look pretty or be guaranteed to link.

 

 

Here we chronicle the  history of tournaments, the final results, and honor the top finishers.  Be a part of gaming history, come join the fun. And congratulations to all the top finishers in these tournaments!

 

Mario Kart 64 and 20 other fanatics planted the seed for x-topia.com (The tournament known then was the Chingachgook Classic)  all the way back in the 20th century

 

This was the first year the tournament scene started to become a semi-regular gathering. Tekken Tag Tournament started it all, so in the 2nd year that was the only game featured since it becomes a nationally tournament played game, other games came in later years

 

This marks the year the national tournament scene for Tekken Tag Tournament really took flight, it also the year where Albuquerque gets national attention for the Replay Games PS2 tournament and is the catalyst for staging the first Tournament in Texas.  Still mainly a TTT only year 

 

Players compete to be recognized on the national stage. Also the year where TiT3 happens perhaps the most exciting TiT to date. A slow year for tournaments in the local scene, but players abilities are at staggering new levels from the years before.  Still mainly a TTT only year 

 

Tekken 4 comes to the national stage, players mainly concentrate on T4 learning this new game engine, while TTT still remains a large interest, even ill today. TiT4 happens this year and for the locals a National interest T4 tournament is held giving away $1000.00 to first place, 2002 a great launching pad for our best year 2003  

 

HALO, Soul Calibur 2, Tekken Tag Tournament, Tekken 4, and CAPCOM vs. SNK2 are now part of the games we hosted for 2003. The gamming community is on the grow again. X-topia.com officially opens to help New Mexico gamers unite. We secure fantastic new members and secure a couple of places to host tournaments. TiT 5 happens now offering a wider game lineup also, what a great year.

 

Each year gets better and better. 2004 big stepping stones were accomplished. Such as securing the Howard Johnson's Conference center for the entire year of 2005. Offering even more games, such as SSBM, more verity, more sponsors, and partnering up to offer LAN parties! 

 

Our Biggest and best year again, so many accomplishments from being able to offer $1000.00 prize tournaments, to having the LARGEST offering of games at any tournament nationally. Over 20 games we host and organize tournament for in one weekend!

 

Be a part of  gamming history and accomplishment. Join us for the social gatherings, for the hobby and for the  growing sport of the mind!  This year we've set our goals high, our first attempt at sponsoring local teams to compete at out of state tournament. Also X-topia announces it partnership in the National Video Game Association, now offering our N.V.G.A events in New Mexico, Colorado and Texas!
