Videogaming competition will soon be on DirecTV. There are six teams in the new Championship Gaming Series league, CNET reports: “the San Francisco OPTX, the Los Angeles Complexity, the Chicago Chimera, the Dallas Venom, the Carolina Core, and 3DNY from New York. Each team has a general manager and 10 players [or “thumb jockeys”].” You may have heard of some of the games they’ll play: Counter-Strike: Source, Dead or Alive 4; Project Gotham Racing 3, and FIFA ’07. And this is an international sport, of course. Besides DirecTV, the league is backed by “the UK’s BSkyB and Asia’s Star networks.”
