"It's not a figgin sport .....that's what's wrong with it..... Holy-crap ..... what's wrong with this world ......... "I'm not hugely into it personally, but what makes an RTS or FPS substantively any different from darts, target shooting or fencing? It's just another competitive activity that demands muscle memory, fast reflexes and an ability to think tactically in the moment. | |||

"I love the idea of esports being at the Olympics, but for it to be included, another sport will be lost. And to be fair, you might as well just hand the gold medal to team USA straight off the bat, nice idea, but when you know that the USA team will most likely only be recruiting from FaZe or optic, it's just going to be a farce. Could do with setting up an independent world championship, with one game made specifically for the event, so that everyone is on the same page" Candy Crush? | |||

"If you think that esports is just nerdy fat kids in smelly bedrooms, Google Faze censor, and his girlfriend yanet garcia Talk about beautiful couples "do FaZe even exist anymore? I thought they were just vloggers now lol | |||

"Would it be included in the Paralympics too?" In a good way that's a thought provoking post... 
I'm not a gamer , I have little or no real knowledge of what's involved but as an potential Olympic event where nations come together to celebrate humanity in all it's wonder and diversity .....
I don't think the violence and carnage I've seen advertising these cyber games fits that Olympic spirit .....

"Wow very narrow minded from you OP ! E-sport is something that is bigger than you think, and a lot of people are into it. But i wouldn't be for including e-sport in the Olympics, because it's computers/consoles which can be hacked/boosted in so many ways....oh wait it's like doping which is happening in most sports, so why not." Listen up sunshine .... If your unable to make a comment without personalising it by calling someone with an alternate opinion "narrow minded" don't aim your shitty comment at me and don't reply to my posts Narrow minded ,,,, yeah easy to see who is narrow minded,,,,, | |||

And yes to me you have a narrow vision about e-sport, is that an insult? Did i hurt you with those words ? Chill out OP, and if you don't accept criticism or opposite views from yours, don't post a thread, in a forum everyone can share their point of view, which you did, which i did, so don't tell me to not post on your shit if i disagree, because that's opposite of the objective of a forum, which is having discussions. Peace out. | |||
