Holy shit, serious props to IGN since it seems like they've played a major role. I believed it when people said IGN stepping into eSports is big, but this big? Fucking awesome news.

Some of it could be things set in a game world that use the game characters in a funny or dramatic way. Some of it is just going to be comedy that anchors in the world of games. One of our concepts is basically two guys who are working at a game store and it’s a comedy where they play off of each other, basically. So stuff like that where the references are anchored in the world of games, but it’ not necessarily talking about a game as an information thing.


With this we might very well break whole new records in term of awkwardness, BEHOLD

On a more serious note, sounds... ok. They are trying to make something new that's for sure.

Very exciting. I wonder what other channels will be getting this Youtube hookup?


They talk a little about a few of them in this article http://www.thedaily.com/page/2011/11/01/110111-tech-news-youtube-channels-1-2/

Would be interesting to see the full list

I think this is really great.

Youtube isn't dumb and they most likely look at the stats and see how many subscribers/views esport related genre has.

Hope this is just the beginning!

There's always those minority of people who think they're special or cool because they're part of a niche community. It's like when bands get blow up and get huge and nobody cares if you were a fan since the beginning. Immature, really.

I don't know, actually. It does not fit for me. I want to discuss with people about what I see, when I watch a SC2 game.

Yeah well, maybe if SC2 is shown over youtube, there will be some people who say "Hey, this Starcraft thing looks nice, i will try that out." But I would not like people who watch and follow starcraft halfhearted. Hmm....

For me, starcraft play a decent role in my life. Its an awesome game with a huge and awesome community, and it doesn't deserve to be "sold out" to random people.

I agree. the demographic here is much more ideal for ESPORTS. It is also 1000% more convenient than something on TV... I hope MLG will follow suit. then we can have a super ESPORTS channel... oh my

typical hipster mentality, no? When the fact that other people enjoy it affects whether you enjoy it....

Hopefully MLG does the same.
Do not dissipate your competence by hebetudinous prodigality unless you subsequently lament an exiguous inadequacy.
