yeah gaming is a sport in most aspects, physical is quick reflexes and hand I cordination, as for mentality its all about how you play, how you think, how you react to other players. It is or should be defiend as a sport.

Yes it is a sport for the reasons Dan said, also if you look up the definition of sport it fits the necessary conditions.

Gaming is a hobby not a sport.

Looks like you didnt need to make a thread about it then if you are so certain its not a sport. But actully no way to beat around the bush here, you are wrong. By definiton gaming is without a doubt a sport.

by definition it is...but by no means is it a sport to me; sports take physical hardships (or should be) and require extensive use of the body...which inadvertently requires you to be fit. when was the last time you've seen a pro gamer in shape?
