I was one of the many people to watch the CGS gaming championship. Now the coach for this years champions Birmingham Salvo wants video games in the Olympics. Should there be video games in the big rings?

IMO, not to be like offensive in any sense, but most of the olympic watchers are like older guys, that just wana watch sports. alot of people, including me, would get bored watching video games on the olympics, unless they had it on another channel.

this is probably the second or third to the worst idea I've ever heard.

That would be quite stupid in my opinion. I'm not much of a fan of video games, as a matter of fact, I don't even HAVE any video games, so I most certainly would go against having video games ruin the pure fun of the olympics. It is made for the sole purpose of seeing who's the best in each category of the olympics.

The Olympics is about international sports and athleticism, not 'wnage.'

All of you guys have been saying and i'll say it again. Olympics is PHYSICAL videogames take no athletic ability and should therefore not be in the Olympics.

1) I agree with IPwnU2Day but I think there should be a mental Olympics to test the name
2) Hackers!

A...mental Olympics? Are you kidding me? Who would want to watch people solve quantum physics problems? Who would want to COMPETE in solving quantum physics problems?
