Wow, Sony is a big name sponsor, congratulations! Though, isn't there a sponsor conflict since they play an activision game?

A game studio sponsoring an e-sports team directly, and one that doesn't even play their game itself at that. Interesting. Probably pretty good promotion though honestly, surprised we haven't seen it much earlier.

Sony Entertainment as a sponsor, really? What the fuck. We really need more people that knows how to market their teams and treat them as a business. It's painfully obvious now that the teams that gone down, (slayers included) didn't know shit about the business side.

SoE/Planetside 2 is also sponsoring the current MLG.

Most obvious way to get tour name out, and since they don't compete with SC2, but they do compete with WoW in a sense, it makes sense.
Plus they already had a relationship with TB from some Planetside 2 event that was happening where TB represented one of the factions.
HOLY CHECK!

You are right and as far as i know, Totalbiscuit has been fairly active with Planetside before the newest installment. So no surprise here!

It makes sense considering how much promotion TB has done for PS2.

This is Sony/PS2's way of thanking him I suppose.

I'm fairly sure some of the people at SOE and on the Planetside team are Starcraft fans.

Wow that's big. TB was already helping promote Planetside by being in their videos, so this makes sense.

Interesting, is PS2 played competitively? Pretty awesome if the answer to that is no and they still want to use this sponsorship for promotion. I mean it's awesome either way. Grats!
