This is a big difference between e-sports and real sports. And it is a reality. Get over it. | ||

For me there's no real difference between "real sports" and starcraft. For me this is like if someone said hey lets put two balls into a soccergame and call it soccer 2 and everyone would switch. Its a wierd feeling. I just hope it will be a really good game but since no other game is as good as starcraft the odds are not good. I can understand those who long for bigger tournaments and prizes that will follow this though. But i've never played it for the tournaments/prizes, only for the love of the game. | ||

You don't have to switch to SC2, and there will still be people playing BW for sure(well, just a fraction of what we have today...). | ||

I accept your argument, but whether it is for you or not, there is a real difference between e-sports and... real... sports. The reason that may be the biggest because so many people care about these things, is real sports are always played in the highest definition possible :p Therefore, real sports do not have to change, and e-sports will forever be. | ||

Eventually, for several reasons not just graphic and hardware related, every video game must be put to rest. This is a big difference between e-sports and real sports. And it is a reality. Get over it. What about other games like Chest? It's centuries old and it still has the same gameplay - it hasn't changed much yet it's still a landmark, somewhat. Video games are on a different medium, but they are in the same area. Also, 'real' sport describe a physical prowess; Starcraft is more of a mental sport. It's not the same category. It's easier to compare Starcraft to Chest than it is to compare it to Tennis. | ||
