Most of the clips are from last year's WCG, so they're obviously using outdated footage.

well this was for WCS 2011 footage, so yes it's old but it's still nice that CNN put something up on their official youtube regarding something we all love and without smearing it with the stereotypical 'gamer' cliches.

Something most foreigner viewers don't usually think about is just how important WCG is to the Korean Starcraft players. Korea has always won the gold in SC:BW and for the first sc2 WCG Mvp must have felt a ton of pressure to win for his country once Marineking and Supernova had been knocked out by foreigners. I imagine winning WCG is one of his fondest memories probably only next to winning Blizzcon in front of that gigantic crowd. I think CNN made the right choice to cover WCG for this instead of another event.

This was pretty nice, and I'm glad esports is featured in such a high profile media but I feel like they could have done a better job tbh.

I wish they would have gotten more shots of the emotions going through a crowd when a tense and epic game is decided, and the emotion of a player after winning or losing a truly important match, to show the world how seriously this is actually taken by those involved.

I also saw no mention of the huge following the esport has, especially in south korea, and there was no mention of the large cash prizes either. Both which could show people not familiar with esports just how huge it is growing.

I am however glad that at least it all was done in a positive light.

This is a great documentary, and good exposure for esports.
