Just because they sit in a cushy chair with business suit doesn't mean there shouldn't be official recognition of the sport of the Corruption Olympics.

Not really a fan of video games being an Olympic Sport. I can understand actual board games like Chess and Checkers and possibly even Card games but video games...

Where is that movie Wall-E, might as well not worry about actual athletics in the next 50 years because people will just get into the video game comps instead. Who needs muscles when you have a E-Reputation.



Well, guess that means it was considered the best simulator =p

Im suprised by the general stance here that gaming isnt considered a sport

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

I see some ignorance in this thread of what it takes to compete at the highest levels of esports. The days of big fat guys sitting in their mom's basement topping the charts are over, if they ever existed at all. While I might not go quite so far as to call them finally tuned athletes, definitely the top esports organizations are focusing on nutrition, and mental and physical health. It's the same kind of stuff that goes into training and conditioning for most top tier sporting competition.



Also, I doubt it's a coincidence that most top-tier gamers are in the early-to-mid 20s age bracket, just like many traditional athletes.
