Where is Manlyfesto and Cambium? These guys should check it out! Wow, I though that there wasn't any SC 2 posted there...
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

Awesome news and great list of eSports games. If League of Legends is there, so why not DotA and HoN?

Surprised Japan of all the asian countries, is hosting a big PC event since they've always been known for their arcade games not pc games.

if you think people didn't play SC in japan, less people probably play DotA/HoN

i also don't get AoE3 but oh well

probably going to have a lot of foreign gamers

Only games that make sense on that list for Japan are SSFIV and PuyoPuyo. I was completely unaware that was (is?) a scene for shooters and rts in japan.

I always find it strange that Japan, which has an amazing internet are not keen on PC games. From what I heard and read about, it's still very much an arcade and console-based games culture over there.

I'm surprised LoL and AoE3 is on there, let alone SC2. Didn't think rts games would ever hit Japan.

The only game that I'm sure we won't see epic failure from is Super Street Fighters. Hell, i didn't even know Japanese gamers play CSS, LoL, and CoD.

Anyone know if that C rank computer is participating in SC2?

First place gets ~$400 US dollars, that's not too shabby.
