Johnathan “Fatal1ty” Wendell was crowned Doom 3 world champion, according to Twin Galaxies’ Official Video Game & Pinball Book of World Records, the gaming industry’s official record book.

“DOOM 3 is a big event,” said Walter Day, Chief Editor of Twin Galaxies. “And we’re glad that our editorial deadline allowed us to document the launch of this title. And, with no other big DOOM 3 showdowns coming before the book’s publishing deadline, we are sure that Fatal1ty will be the only DOOM 3 celebrity in the book.”

Fatal1ty will not only be mentioned in the book for his recent DOOM 3 victory at QuakeCon 2004, but his extensive career biography will be as well.

Wendell will now participate in ABIT Fatal1ty Shootouts at various locations in which he appears. Fatal1ty Shootouts give European gamers the opportunity to challenge the 3-time CPL Champion to one-on-one matches for an array of prizes.
