EuroGamer on Pro Gaming -- 4:36 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

EuroGamer has an editorial on the state of professional gaming, fearing that it is going nowhere fast. The article raises some interesting points which gives me the opportunity to share an opinion I've held for some time: Professional Gaming is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Not that the players aren't talented in their particular game, they are. But who cares? Who, I ask you? Who is calling up ESPN2 and screaming to have this stuff televised? Who really wants to spectate a professional Counter-Strike tournament? If I can't see any point and I love these games, how in the world will we convince non-gamers to watch and companies to shell out cash for it? Thanks Stomped.
