Por fin ha salido la lista de ganadores del concurso Epic para el Unreal Tournament III y entre nombres y más nombres brilla uno por encima de todos, DANIEL "KAMI" DÍAZ.

Kami ha conseguido alzarse con el primer premio con su mapa DM-CBP3-Salvation dentro de la categoría Deathmatch level

 

Con este triunfo Kami se lleva la bonita cifra de 2500$ y creo que un pedazo de pepino/ordenador que ya quisieran muchos

Y no solamente eso, a partir de aquí se le pueden abrir un montón de puertas para poder dedicarse a algo

que empezó en su día como un hobby y puede acabar en una auténtica profesión (esto ya son conjeturas mías, no sé si Kami llevará otros planes)
