If IGN has its own league. Gamespot put their hands on the other leagues.



Makes sense. Honestly, IPL had taken me almost completely away from Gamespot, even subconciously, I was just used to typing in ign.com.

With CBSi's resources, and MLG's high production standard, hopefully this will revolutionize what we can expect from streaming media in the future: Lagless 1080p+, multiple streams, easy navigation, etc.

One can hope, anyway.

Scroll up like 5 posts above you... it's a pretty huge television network, the biggest in the US. And they own a ton of other stuff. It'll bring stability, money, and growth potential most likely.

This is different from an internet giant supporting MLG because CBS is a major MEDIA company in the united states. Deep pockets with endless international connections.

MLG is also still partnered with another major company IMG,

Try reading a few of the posts in the thread that you are posting in and you will find out.

and right about now is where we twitter bomb them with "thank you for supporting Twitch, MLG and esports"
seems like a good move for all parties involved. i hope everything goes well for these companies, that CBS gets a good return from MLG and MLG as well as Twitch will be growing healthily from this partnership

I think what is hapenning here is that the holding company is putting money on games to further boost their gaming division aka GameSpot. What we can expect from this is a lot of advertising from their side including all their brands and Gamespot itself.

Basically its money put into twitch and MLG for ads. I can't see any further than that at least for now.

This is a great move for all parties involved. Twitch and MLG get the advertising and behemoth sales force that only someone like CBS can provide, and CBS Interactive gets, in their own words, "s rapidly attracting the core 18-34 male demographic in greater numbers than any other medium or category,” The one part to watch out for is CBS acting as the online broadcaster for MLG. But if March Madness and Final Four is CBSi's examples of live streaming, not only do I have zero complaints, but I believe it is a step up.

Additionally, as reported by AdWeek, the CBSi/GameSpot partnership will also be with NASL, not just MLG. No bias. http://www.adweek.com/news/technology/cbs-interactive-games-links-twitchtv-gamespot-partners-pro-gamer-orgs-139640?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

The first of much exciting news, with my own to come shortly. Will once again be covering MLG NY for GameSpot with Benito and Erick, lots to watch this weekend.
