It's kinda a shame that Samsung is not sponsoring it. I'm a big Samsung phone fan and it is...a Korean company.

I think it's actually better for global e-sports for it to not be a Korean company. Other large Western/Japanese companies might take notice and be intrigued. I also think it's cool that it's not a traditional computer company like Intel as other's have mentioned, because it's a bit more mainstream and less niche, again helping other companies get interested, and maybe even getting the attention of people who like the brand but haven't been interested in e-sports/StarCraft 2.

I don't see the words "TG Sambo" or "Intel" written on the site at ALL anymore.

Edit: Still hoping they give Tasteless and Artosis a dedicated observer this time around.

Awesome... can anyone recommend a good Sony Ericsson (Android) phone? I'm planning on getting a new phone soon.


You can check on detailed information on the various SE phones over at gsmarena.com. I think the Xperia X10 and X8 models are the only ones that use Android. Their earlier smartphones tended to use Windows Mobile.

General FYI, Intel's revenue is 3-4 times bigger than Sony Ericsson's.

Not that this has anything to do with the size of the sponsorship but I'm just saying.

agree.
or even better, have tasteless and artosis view through the korean obs and just commentate from there.

Then that would be like truley awesome casting !!!!!!!!

edit:

BIG QUESTION
The prize pool has been announced prior to this huge event. Does this mean
1.) they have already found their sponsors and are revealing them season by season
2.) they are finding sponsors for every GSL while the events are happening? what if they can't get a sponsor for GSl 3 ?

Wouldn't think Sony needed the advertisement.

But this is fantastic news.

That's awesome!

An internationnal company like this sponsoring the major SC2 event, it will probably open the door for a lot more companies who didn't want to risk it. I think it'll help esports in general, really nice news imo

Magic is "just" magic until I get my hands on the source code.
