GotFrag eSports recently sat down with our very own Counter-Strike 1.6 player Ben Hui. The interview features some pretty interesting information from what happened with his time playing Counter-Strike Source and experiences about the first CGS Combine and Draft. In additional, there is of course information brought up related to the X3O Counter-Strike 1.6 team and how it is doing. Although it's a fairly short interview, it is definitely worth a look!

Excerpt from GotFrag.com's interview with Ben Hui:
Less than a month ago, X3O took second in the 2008 X3O Championship Series qualifier to Evil Geniuses. With the two of you having so much history in the past, what will need to be done different against them the next time around?

I'll leave it for mr ediz 'goodfornothing' to solve that, but he really is good for nothing so we'll see....

As you know, the Counter-Strike 1.6 scene is at its lowest and it's hard to find more local tournaments around the area as well as worldwide. Do you think the GotFrag Revival Tournament will help get more players interested? What else could help get the 1.6 community back on its feet?

The revival tournament is a good idea, but in the end it is online. The only real way to bring back 1.6 is larger tournaments and more local lans. There are a few lans coming up this summer, which is usually the best time for 1.6 anyways, so we'll see what happens.

Recently you won the iZ3D $2,500 iGames event in California with impulsive and PaTyoJoN against MoB Gaming. It's been back and forth between you two teams as you know, both online and on LAN. Do you feel you have a better knowledge of the players and how they play now since you've had the chance to both lose and defeat them?

I only played in one match against them in CEVO, but I've played against their players with other teams for a while, so there wasn't anything new from playing them this past weekend.
