I understand that you buy money for a game to play. But pay money to watch someone else play? Pathetic.

Pathetic? Why its pathetic again? It's exactly same as watching tv or going to cinema. You pay for the stuff you want to see. One of the most normal things in the whole world.

Yeah, but for example a movie in cinema or a special channel on TV is ment to be viewed for entertainment. Watching others play a game where you can easily participate yourself for that amount of money iis a totally different area. If you are hooked on computer gaming so much that you need to pay to watch two teams PLAY A COMPUTER GAME then I think your priorities in life are a bit off. I get that you pay for entertainment, but if you're so entertained by other people playing a game then it truly is a bit pathetic, don't you think? Play the game, have fun while doing it, that's the whole point of games, isn't it? I watch streams, HoN or ET or QL and I enjoy them to a certain level. Even if I had tons of money which I would never spend anyway, I wouldn't even think for a second to spend it on an Enemy Territory stream for example. A game that I have loved for years.

Football isn't just a game. Football is the most popular sport in the world.

Still you're just watching other people play a game you could easily play yourself.

Repeating your argument doesn't make it any more valid.

Yes, it's their PPV model for Arenas. You can still watch the Championship for free on Standard Definition later this year.

slajdan 18 May 2012, 21:41
