Is it just me or does the reporter pause at odd times when she's speaking? Besides that, I really liked it :D

That kind of mistake just makes this video a joke. Really insulting to see how CNN could make such a glaring mistake. Clearly shows how little they actually care about the topic

How is it silly? It differentiates gaming addiction and competitive gaming.

LOL just noticed that... how could they make such a messed up mistake? I can't think of where they got the 9 from. I mean, obviously there's day9 and they're brothers, but... where did they get "tasteless 9" from?

Wow, 8 months late but pretty amazing documentary, glad to see CNN take interest in eSports.
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

They're brothers, so they have the same last name. And that last name is 9. That's better logic than most of what you'll find on CNN actually.

They kind of overexaggerated the part with the suicidal guy and made me not take the video seriously after that.


It's not that bad really, it shows both sides of the argument and says that there is a difference between competitive gaming and gaming addicts.

That scene where they show the therapy for a gaming/internet addiction really reminded me of "a clockwork orange" btw. :D

It's not that bad, but it's still bad. Do documentaries about tennis show 'tennis addicts', do documentaries about violinists show 'violin addicts'? When someone spends all day playing the piano people go 'look how dedicated and hard-working they are', but when they spend all day playing videogames it suddenly becomes 'oh my god that crazy addict'! The MVP one is much better eSports-wise.
That said I do think videogame addiction is a real thing, and something worth discussing. But not in the context of eSports, and definitely not in the way mainstream media has been doing.



I think you're being overly defensive. There is such a thing as internet and gaming addiction. There's no such thing as Tennis addiction. Of course the problem for those involved is separating addiction from hobby and competition and career. The story doesn't try to draw a connection between eSports and addiction either, in fact it called eSports the bright side to mass-gaming (for lack of a better term). Plus, the prevention center was about engaging with the internet and games without losing control, not avoiding them altogether.

Anyways, my favorite part was where MKP's middle school cut off internet because too many kids were watching him play instead of going back to class (crowd favorite from the beginning I see!).


you can definitely get addicted to sports and exercising, much rarer than video games addictions for sure but its definitely a problem for some people.

those people get high off of it, and shows almost all addiction signs. End up exerting themselves that it hurts them physically and mentally.


You're right, I glossed it over because clinically it's so much rarer than gaming/internet addiction (although most expercts are only guestimating and starting to accept that game/internet addiction is a real thing so the numbers could be quite inflated there too). I mean therer's that lady addicted to sun-tanning, but she's probably the only one in the US, so ya, anything you can think of there's probably someone who's clinically addicted to it.
