Video games should not be a sport. First sport require physical activity, moving your hand all day and starring at screen is not a sport.

Many activities such as chess, polo and even golf have been questioned as legitimate sports. According to the international Olympic committee, chess, polo and golf all fall under the category of sports but it seems that golf has been the only sport played at the Olympics of these three. Activision, one of the world's leading gaming companies known for titles such as "Call of Duty," "Destiny" and "Guitar Hero," is now attempting to create an official ESPN segment called Major League Gaming. This has led to the debate on whether or not video games are a legitimate sport and if Activision’s endeavor to create MLG will create a surge in profits and popularity or a crash in failure.

I don't know anything to say about this topic, instead, I can recommend a very interesting game for those who don't know it yet.

There are some video games that can replace physical sports, because playing games can also stimulate our adrenaline. But it won't be good if we play video games for too long.

I agree that sports are sweaty physical activities, while video games are just a virtual world that uses the mind more. sport makes healthy than video games.

I think "competitions" is a much better term for it. The same way there are chess competitions.

While the physical involvement may be limited, mental engagement is stimulated! Virtual sports also provides release from stress.

I think it could.  Many were very talented in some particular activity but not good to others.  Example, LeBron is good in basketball but not in chess as great as Carlsen. Chess is not physical activity but it needs your ability to think. That's why not all sports are physical, because of that some online game could be considered as sports.

In fact, the reaction and sleight of hand used during the game may well be considered the main characteristics for eSports. They also need to be developed, hone their game strategies and compete with the same athletes, so I think that in the future it will become a real sport.

They already called an E-sport. I guess video games deserved to be called an sport because most of people playing this. It's still a game

I don't think that it should be considered a sport, it's far behind calling it a sport

I don't know, most of these professional players undergo some pretty exercise of their hands, at the very least, to be able to react with the speed they do. Either way, even if it's not as sport, it's a competitive activity with a lot of money on the line. I find how it'll be labelled irrelevant.
