Here in South Korea there are two--TWO!--television networks which show NOTHING BUT people playing games of Starcraft. Also, in my city's X-Games festival there is a special subsection of 'E-sports' which, you guessed it, pretty much means playing Starcraft.<br /><br /> <br /><br /> I wonder if there's a market for video-gaming as spectator sport in America? Is it satisfying to watch masterful players of videogames? Or just frustrating? Like when your friend who's so-much-better-than-you always kicks you ass on Mortal Kombat and it's no longer fun anymore?
