I'm still trying to figure out how people can stand playing the same game over and over again. Other than graphics enhancements, the games are basically the same thing that has been played for years now. Yet another FPS, whoopdie friggin do.

At first, I was also thinking LOL. But, then I realized that there's an entire generation of kids growing up who spend more time playing xbox, playstation, etc., than they've ever spent outdoors. Hell, for some kids, the only time they're outdoors is walking out to the bus to go to school, walking from the bus into the school, walking out of the school back to the bus, and... running from the bus into their house so they can get in enough levels on some game before their mom makes them stop to eat dinner.
Lol, imagine Sports Illustrated's Body issue with 'e-athletes' in the spread.

Nah, fundamentally all e-sports gamers peak at age 24-26.
From 18 to 24 they don't make enough to compensate for the practice it takes to play e-sports. You end up in your 30's with no skills and no life.
The real money is actually in being an ex-gamer and commentating.
Part of the allure of sports is that the players are legends. Its tough to get into a sport you know is probably ruining their lives. They are more like e-gladiators, hopelessly enslaved to videogames in a battle to the death for their 15 minutes of fame. The problem is not the sport/games, but the players. e-sports burns through talent too fast to really develop a household name. Who are the latest and greatest? I have no idea honestly.
