There should be e-lympics for mental strength as an e-quivalent to the o-lympics for physical strength

Shooting is also an olympic sport. Pointing, and basically clicking. You don't even have to use the arrow keys.

Speaking of Infiltration, he won both SFxT and AE2012 at the Street Fighter 25th Anniversary tournament.

So he won $50,000 and a new car.

Olympic games should be available to all countries, regardless of if that country is wealthy or not.

Society in general still values physical games over mental games really. I don't think video games should be an Olympic thing, but looking at how sports like major league baseball started out in America (players with day jobs, entertainment and theatrics, etc) we're not doing too bad given Street Fighter II came out in 1991.

I don't know, maybe it'll grow into its own thing, maybe not. Still, it'll be fairly different from athletic sports.

But how much was it to get that back to Korea?
