His face tells me he's not interested in e-Sports and is only doing this for money.

Even the name itself is pretty -_________-

Trying to support EVERY platform and almost ANY game isn't really a good idea.

WCG is already bad. Imagine if they had every single game added.

He is a rich musician trying to get some more money. When he was at vacation he saw that there actually was sponsors for professional gamers, sponsors means money. Now he is trying to do the same in USA, so he too can get more money. Only problem he doesn't know SHIT about what he is doing.

I love how the website will provide everything important for pro gamers, like recruiting to teams, get into random leagues(wtf?) and downloading music (double wtf?)

EDIT: funny how he has mistaken game genres with game platforms (arcade, PC, etc)

The problem is it's not being done right, the people behind it have no idea what they're doing and have never even been a part of esports.

They might pull it off if they get their shit together, I suppose. America needs a good esports foundation.

On page 4 someone posted a LO3 podcast that goes into some details as to exactly why this could end up flopping that's definitely worth a listen.
good vibes only

It has yet to be done right. Terrible leagues like this, that will almost surely go belly up after one season, (maybe not, but I'm not optimistic) do far more harm then good. After the advertisers and sponsors get burned with lackluster numbers, it will just further deter the corporate video game world from putting money into these for gamers by gamers leagues.

Which gamers btw? I am a competitive gamer and I didn't get a say. I'm pretty sure yu gi oh is not for me by me.

I only care about starcraft (1, i don't give a damn about sc2 which will suck in comparison) and cs 1.6. It will be so awesome if these game swill be in the solid league. I would also love to see fighting games, Tekken 6br and SF3ts to be exact.

These games are the best esports games.

If they fuck up with disciplines - wow, halo, source, etc, it's useless to even try, it'll fail.

If it's all a big joke, too bad then.

Any game that has prize money has people who are professionals playing only that, how is this surprising to a community that supports a 10 year old video game that has next to no money at all in non-Korean tournaments?

It would be funny to see Barcelona CF compete against Boston Red Socks and LA Lakers, etc, playing rugby, field hockey and water polo against each other. But it will get boring quickly.

If this is supposed to be a US progaming association, why is it then called the "Worldwide Federation of Gaming"? Why not something like USeSPA, NeSL or even NAeSA if you want to throw in Canada and Mexico into the mix? No offence, but that is just ridiculous.

Besides, as much as people tend to hate WCG, it is still an already established international e-Sports organisation (and originally created in South Korea, the cradle of e-Sports, no less) It even has it`s own theme song. Why would we need yet another such organisation?
