I guess most of you now know that Valve, the company behind great games such as Half Life and Portal, is developing the game 'Defense of the Ancients 2' aka Dota (in case you don't know what Dota is please leave lebgeeks). The game hasn't been released yet but Valve is holding a tournament in the upcoming Gamescon in Germany, with an unbelievable prize of one million dollars! Early retirement anyone?
