View Profile I used to watch this show on the internet where this guy was a pro at this game and he had a friend who was pro at another game and he had some sort of adhd or something and his girlfriend was pro at yet another game.
sounds like a pretty shitty show

It had some good parts but overall it was pretty bland.

View Profile 2-D, The reason why they take the game seriously is because they are paid to play it. Pro gamers usual game for a living, it is the only thing they do. They play what ever game they are exceptionally good at for 6-8 hours a day usually for 7 days a week. Its a what they do, not who they are.

And this is why it is hilarious/sad. They are taking a thing meant purely for entertainment and making the exact opposite of that.

that doesn't make them any less of faggots nor does it make it any more fun to play with them. they are horrible to play with.

View Profile I must admit, I would love to be able to make a living just playing games. In principle it's a great idea. It's just the people who do it that ruin it.

View Profile If you wanna be paid to play games become a game designer.

View Profile That would involve learning actionscript or whatever complicated stuff the professionals are using these days. It takes some sort of intelligence to be a game designer. Any idiot can do well in a tournament.

View Profile pro gamers are faggots. they take the game WAY too ****ing seriously, and are usually the bro type of person unless the game they're professional at isn't an fps. they're also huge douchebags that think they're better then everyone else.
i play games to have fun, not to ****ing work, i don't give a shit about pro gamers
I agree. The only reason to dislike MLG is if you dislike the people.
If you don't like the idea of making money out of something made for entertainment, I take it you also dislike sport. They make millions from spending their time exercising and playing games.

View Profile Sorry about that. College and whatnot. That and I've never played Quake Arena.
I'll see if I can get things sorted out later this week.
