Is WorldGaming.com legal?
Yes!
All tournaments and services offered through WorldGaming.com are considered "Games of Skill." Games of Skill are games in which the element of skill supersedes the element of chance, as opposed to traditional casino games where the element of chance supersedes the element of skill. WorldGaming.com is therefore not considered a gambling arena and as such is legal in most European territories and the majority of the United States.
Additionally, WorldGaming.com has no vested interest in which player prevails (unlike in a Casino game or sport betting scenario). WorldGaming.com provides the forum in which the games are arranged and guarantees that the winners get paid. WorldGaming.com serves as a facilitator of games and tournaments and does not make any money from the outcome of any tournament.
What consoles and games will tournaments be available for?
WorldGaming.com tournaments are compatible with top multiplayer games on Xbox 360, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3. Sorry, but unfortunately we do not support PC Games or tournaments at this time.
