5 Reasons eGaming Should Be Considered A Real Sport

3. It Can Be Streamed

Yes, I know, just like any other sport out there, right? And that is exactly why this is a reason to consider it a real sport. People will actually pay money to watch others play their favourite game in HD. Trust me, I've seen countless dudes actually buying yearly subscriptions to different streaming sites just so they can see the level of gaming they are never going to reach. Pro gaming. And before you jump around in your chair saying that they couldn't make such a big amount of money to actually be significant, just ask yourself - if there are like 1 million people (trust me, I've seen higher numbers) watching a respective stream which requires a subscription to go HD, and 5% of them buy it, you get 50,000 subscriptions. That's a huge load of money, if you ask me. And most companies are interested in this. If there is a sport, there will be companies having some kind of benefit from it.
