Go SoA! I have started to subscribe to Jubii Games newsletter, which actally turns out to be pretty good. Includes reviews, breaking news etc. In this day's issue they have a thorough description and discussion of each of the players on the Danish Counter-Strike team Spirit of Amiga (SoA) who is going to represent Denmark in the Counter-Strike World Championship in Texas next week. Pretty much like the description of every other sportsteam - we are just talking "cybersports" here! - and this team actually dreams about becoming professionals - apparently there is already lots of money involved in this sport (championship boasts cash prices of $150,000). Will serious team gameplaying actually become the next big spectator sport? There is an article about this phenomena in BBC online, which Espen pointed me to some time ago. Check out Jubii Games and sign up for newsletter here
