BBC does a radio show on the emerging E-Sport movement in the EU

The show is called the ‘Esportsman’ that touches the surface of the emergence of the Esports movement mostly in Europe.
Obviously this is a mainstream style broadcast so don’t expect it to go into too much depth into much but it is still nice to listen to something spreading more authenticity and validity in the Esports movement. I found the broadcast through reading the following article that shows what pro-gamers have in common(psychologically speaking of course) with professional athletes:

And of course this is the European Esports movement, and while the player intensity might be there as a whole it is but a drop in the bucket next to what is and has been evolving in South Korea for the past decade. If you want to take a nice close up look at what that scene, the grand daddy of all eSports looks like head over to Nevakes ‘Subtitled’ section of his channel and get into either the Old boy series or Hyung Joon Becomes A Progamer series. It’s a good watch if you are a big time geek and those Korean’s can be so damn cute when they want to
