Major League Gaming is one of many popular video gaming leagues, though it is one of the few that focuses on a PS3 league. It allows many gamers to put their gaming skill towards a more productive end rather than mere entertainment and distraction. Gaming leagues feature large sums of prize money or items and can be a very lucrative industry for those willing to work a little. Of course, competitors need to beat not only dozens upon dozens of other competitors who've been practicing, but also the reigning champions who make a living from such games. The only requirement from players is that they pay the entry fee, then the rest is up to them.
MLG (Major League Gaming)
Major League Gaming has become one of the biggest leagues for console and personal computer gaming. It provides annual tournaments for up to half a dozen games with the lineup changing to accommodate the latest releases. It was founded in 2002 and has grown to be popular amongst many gamers, both with those who compete, but also with those who just wish to watch the live events and online shows. With both new and old competitors joining the fray regularly, the fans always have someone to root for.
For the most part, MLG utilizes the Playstation 3 console for their gaming, but in some cases, the games have exclusivity on a certain console and cannot be purchased in any other format. In these cases, the game's native console is used. For live events, the participants are provided with all they need to play. Here is the latest lineup of games for MLG.
The Game Lineup
Halo's support for several game modes, up to sixteen players and its twitch-based combat means it's perfect for competitive cybersports. Today's tournaments see Halo 3 and Halo: Reach possessing two of the six tournaments to themselves in four versus four matches. The series is known for its first-person shooter (FPS) format and science-fiction setting. As a complement to Halo, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 joins it to provide similar gameplay, yet a differing setting. These three games are part of a venerable series and provide excellent support for competitive team-based matches. Fighting games are coming in strong this year with Tekken 6 making the first of its series' debut in the Major League Gaming. While it didn't have a predecessor in the league, Super Smash Bros. Brawl did and it has now taken over. Both of these games provide good one versus one matches that require excellent coordination and reflexes. The first real-time strategy game to be in any of Major League Gaming's tournaments, Starcraft II won't disappoint. A booming success in Korea, both its predecessor and the newly released sequel are created by the venerable Blizzard. It has excellent support for competitive gameplay and this will be no different.
Major League Gaming has seen many of the earlier games as part of its original lineups. Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2 came before the latest iterations. As did Call of Duty Modern Warfare and Super Smash Bros. Melee. Games that have also had tournaments are Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas, Gears of War, World of Warcraft and Shadowrun. The following competitions should see even newer iterations, such as Call of Duty Black Ops.
