It was posted on Wilmott as they are looking for beta testers:

A simulation of financial markets based on different QF ideas. It is, however, structured as a game where every player starts with some virtual cash and invests in various assets. This seems like a fairly obvious idea, but we haven't seen anything quite like this around the net so we set out to do it ourselves. It uses all kinds of models such as Gaussian copula, Merton, GARCH etc to simulate whole range of assets which are all interrelated.
 
Layout could do with a bit of a spruce up.
But what a great idea.

I think SG do a game every year in October time i think. They give you virtual money of £10k and ask you to invest in real assets like WArrants on equity, indices, commodities, etc. Prices are all real time. Theirs some fun quiz as well. Winner gets a laptop and other prizes. I played it last year and performed terribly. You guys can try your skill(or luck) on it. Here's the link:
