    Video Games to be a part of Beijing Olympics



    It's only a matter of time until it becomes an official sport. I know a few weeks back ESPN signed a contract with Major League Gaming.

    Dear Lord... I understand having a video game league, but including them in the Olympics seems like a little much.

      Its gonna have a bunch of celebrities and is just something fun before the Olympics start. Hardly making them "part of Beijing Olympics." Hell it isn't even in Beijing.

          The reason it's not in Beijing is because its being played in the soccer stadiums they are using for the Olympics, which are in Shanghai. I'd still consider a welcome event part of the Olympics though its just not an event.

              They can add a video game playing event to those crappy Olympics button-masher games.
