not even sure if I got espn3 :mjlol: hold on let me see

I wonder if its the same broadcast from twitch ?

I just know the final match up (the one for $5 million) will be played on ESPN/ESPN2 and I think they doing a special on it and interviewing players before hand etc
See :mjlol: Not even YOU know much about it. But ESPN is a jock channel so I see why you not sure :steviej:
But, ESPN3 is ESPN's web channels bruh
So the ESPN app, or ESPNwatch.com you can peep it... free, no cable subscription needed for ESPN3 content

I personally watch all ESPN shows via my XB1, and in that app they have a LIVE section
That is the only reason why I stumbled on this. The idea is cool, but the reason why its not working is exactly what we be fighting about

PC gamers are just too lame, the event on ESPN just proves the point. The guy they interviewed.
No bullshyt.. looked just like

Dota 2/League Of Legends is probably some of the most fun I've had playing video games. Some of you cats need to give it a try.

A loooong time ago, I used to hang with a few PC geeks sometimes
Went to a few cafe's.. did the counterstrike thing
Seen these weird types of games.. the Dota.. Diablo's/etc.
All those popular PC games are just flat out weird. But you guys get HOOKED on the leveling up
But the gameplay, the graphics.. shyt is just flat out lame imo
Looks lame, sounds lame. Actually playing whatever I played, I was able to see how people could get caught up
And how it could be time consuming

I knew I didn't have time to even entertain those types of games. And I still don't get why ppl who do play them continue to do so when console games are so much more advanced from a gameplay perspective

The thing is Dota/LoL isn't like an RPG, there's no real leveling up. You play to get better just like in anything else, FPS, fighting games, etc.

I hate this stan/console war shyt but really? :rudy:


Anyway, it's good to see the PC community can come together in such support for competitive games. Shame the console platforms can't really get it together like that. I remember Halo 2 on USA which was dope to see but MLG eventually sold out to only broadcast PC games, along with players playing games simply because they're new and not supporting competitive balance.

But MOBA's? I enjoy playing them but I just wanna see a shooter on that kinda level I guess.

You say that like if console games are not very popular?
Fighting games are console games
They do have FPS tournaments all over the world, and the prize money is large
Not sure why this is now news, its not
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_MLG_National_Championships

I see Halo in there :manny:
MLG is the world leader in eSports. They have an app on Xbox360 and Xbox One :manny:

Even Call of Duty Ghost which isn't a very popular game had $200,000 in prizes.

We aren't talking popularity, you said console games are more advanced in gameplay. Which is not true. Fighting games are not exclusively console games with KoF 13/USFIV/MK being playable on PC. The only reason why they are played on console is because it's much more accessible.

Only fps tournaments I see on twitch are for Counterstrike and CoD and the occasional quake live tournament which all of those combined don't ever reach the prize money that a League or Dota tournament would get.

Halo hasn't been played at an MLG event in over 2 years. CoD does not have the community support like other games do. When a new CoD game comes out they flock to it in hope that people will throw money at it instead of investing in it themselves like this Dota 2 tournament. MLG is not the world leader in eSports.

Bruh, first off. MLG is the world leader in eSports. What makes you say its not, because it doesn't fit your argument?
Is that how you use your barometer bruh bruh :mjlol:
I'm sure you could have googled it, but ignorance is bliss so have fun outcheaaaaaaaa :banderas:
As for Halo not in 2yrs.. not in MLG. Dota hasn't been in almost the same time... but there have been Halo tournaments since then :stopitslime:
And while you downplay all the other tournaments cuz you furious, lets get back to gameplay
You saying these PC nerd games have more gameplay than console games?
Really bruh :bryan:
Ok, lets take one more gander. Lets look at all the popular PC games so we don't miss anything
League of legends, dota 2, diablo 3 maybe? IDK. Lets roll the tape tho...
League of nerdy legends

Dota 2

Diablo III


How are all these not the exact same lame nerdy bullshyt demonic fukkboy games without any REAL GAMEPLAY

Like, you dudes been deprived of actual gameplay for so long you just don't even realize what gameplay is :wow:
Everyone of those games are identical basically. What, one game has a fairy and the other has a demon?
fukk all that, you can win a piece of 10million if you give your life to satan :blessed:
I'll pass...

MLG is not even top 5 maybe not even top 10 in e-sports... dont know why you were under that impression? Never have been... maybe because they got a cool logo ? But thats just more console peasant ignorance :wow:

like literally no one cares about MLG.. in the past 2 years or so people stopped flying in from europe/asia because the checks werent even worth it..
