As Gaming Evolves...
A mini-discussion(tm) that me and Phait had on #tf got me thinking, the rant was about whether online "sports" should be called sports and if the people playing these games professionally should be called "athletes".

As gaming gets more and more mainstream what do you see happening to the gaming world in terms of recognition from the masses, things like TV shows, online championships and sports and gaming integrated into everyday life. Do you ever think you would get TV coverage of pro matches and tournaments like you get with football these days?

The most pressing of all might be : how will integration into the mainstream affect the actual games getting released? And also the developers making these games? For instance game sensorship and explicit content.

Fire away...

Hey, Take That Back! 
You stole that line from me, pal! 
Dang, Didn't Work, 
post # 26 should've read, 'posted by SpiroAgnew.' Joke is ruined. 
Pure And Beautiful? 
You've never actually seen my soul, have you?

Besides, I'm a cynic, and Anti-Nowhere League's my backing band. 
Sorry For The Taunts, FC 
but I was stoned on the White Lightening when I wrote that. 
BTW 
White Lightening is completely legal to purchase in most parts of the Southland, just didn't want to leave a mis impression. 
Oh, And Beautiful 
in the same way Baudelaire could describe a cat carcus in elegant and enchanting language. 
Incidentally, If You Do See My Soul... 
Don't make any sudden movements or loud noises, move slowly away, and don't turn your back. I think it's on heat. 
Lol 
much like you treat a fiend
