Won't be using it though - asked a question in the Fatal1ty live discussion and instead it got used as a newsletter question...So got sent a signed (huge) mousepad. Nice one!
Here's what I sent (answer was somewhat expected but still interesting :) ):
This month's question comes from Mark in Limerick, Ireland
Do you think that eSports can stabilize in the future? Will there be a time when there is a central group organized to try and streamline issues (and possibly rank tournaments - like Golf or Tennis where certain tournaments are majors but others are important and carry good prize money); rather than the current set-up where all tournaments are competing with each other yet using different games, different rule sets, etc. making it difficult for players..
Fatal1ty's Answer:
Very good question. This is actually the very reason I first decided to join up with the Championship Gaming Series. Having an organized and televised league with franchised teams competing for cash is definitely a step in the right direction. It's very tough to tell right now exactly what will happen in the world of eSports, even in a few months from now. The concept is still new and just beginning to crack the mainstream shell. so I think you will continue to see leagues competing with each other for a little while. but look at what happened with the formation of the current NFL. The NFL and former AFL were competing leagues until they finally joined forces to make professional football what it is today. This is one of the main issues the CGS is dealing with today, but again I think the CGS definitely has the right idea in order to make one centralized gaming league.
