Then you get the power.

Esports, we are sure, are here to stay. Listen to Ian and James discuss the rise and continued growth of the esports industry in the final chapter of Sport 2.0. Esports is huge business, which streamers bringing millions of views a day, going head to head with major league sports franchises around the world. Also, we finally decide to include esports into the category of sport, but try not to hound to hard on the semantics. If we can establish that there is a sliding scale of physicality involved in sports, why not the haptically control speed and precision involved in a gaming rig? We also take a moment to discuss whether, after all, we think the Olympic games will open their arms to the videogame industry. If so, is it a winter sport or a summer sport? Which games will go first? Does that present any unique challenges?

James also takes a moment to catch us up on some blockbuster hits he has been playing recently, including the totally not racist or repetitive Ghost Recon: Wildlands, and The all-too-risqueee Witcher 3. Ian avoids talking about Terraria for the 3rd episode in a row.

Thanks for listening!
