If you don’t know by now that the soccer World Cup finals will be held in Germany in three months then you are either a hermit without cable, or a citizen of a country where football refers to a sport where using your hands is the preferred way to pass the ball rather than a sure way out the game.
At CeBIT football, or soccer, is part of almost every other megabooth. Mobile phone maker BenQ Siemens laid out a pitch where visitors can practice their passing. At one of the many Samsung booths, visitors can relive the ultimate challenge of a penalty shoot-out.
The World Cup in June will be broadcast in both high definition television as well as digital mobile television signals. Technology, media and telecoms companies expect it will kickstart a wave of product renewals by consumers, ranging from HDTV sets and new cell phones to personal video recorders and DVD machines. Of course as two Xbox360 gamers show here, there will always be football video games to take up the time between real-world matches.

Xbox 360 is always a good way to fill in the time between matches! The penalty shootout game looks like fun as well except I’d probably suck at it..
- Posted by cupmaniaI’m better with knowledge of the game than actually playing it.. kind of like a backseat driver always telling players on screen what they’re doing wrong hahaha
There’s a tipping comp I found with $2500 in prizemoney. Which is just my cup of tea really, hopefully I can win and use the money for a playstation 3 when they come out
here’s the comp if you think you know your stuff and want to have a shot at the $$
