Valve entzieht TV-Rechte für Counterstrike 1.6

Einen herben Schlag scheint Valve nun allen Fans des beliebten Multiplayer-Teamspiels 'Counterstrike 1.6' zu versetzen. Valve entzieht beziehungsweise reglementiert in Zukunft die TV-Ausstrahlung von Counterstrike-basierten Matches.

FROM THE ARCHIVEThis article ran in 2007, 19 years ago: back then still under the name ProjectLAN.de, ploynt's predecessor. Dates, prices and links are as they were at the time.
At the WSVG Grand Finals, we already saw a partnership with CBS (and its College Sports TV) and I am sure they will want to expand their successful ventures towards TV in 2007. With CGS not having a TV license for 1.6, I highly doubt WSVG will get one either.

Of course if the WSVG will run events such as LANWAR, CS 1.6 could be a featured game, but to lay down a stable structure for a year-round tournament, it will need a game that is allowed to be broadcasted on TV. So the question is: What will be left for them? In my opinion, the WSVG has three options. "Gears of War" on the Xbox 360, "CS:Source" and "Call of Duty 2."

    Ja CS!

    ich finde schon dass das ganze von interesse ist, zumal dadurch der esport mal wieder in seiner entwicklung (vom inet ins fernsehn und damit zur allgemeinheit) gehemmt wird.
