Well, there's the Super Bowl for football fans, the NBA All-Star Weekend for basketball junkies, and the World Series for baseball fanatics. These are major television events, getting airtime, oodles of advertisements, and raking in network ratings. Now here's something for gamers. CBS aired Video Game Super Stars, presented by Intel, featuring five of the best pro gamers around.

The special focuses on the likes of Johnathan "Fatal1ty" Wendel (a.k.a. "the Michael Jordan of gaming"), Rafik "LoSt-CaUzE" Bryant, David "Moto" Geffon who defied his family and denounced the profession of law to be a pro gamer, the minister's daughter Shannon "Mary Jane" Ridge, and Matt "Ballistics" Powers who is a seasoned Sergeant at maximum security prison.

You can watch the World Series of Video Games Finals, also presented by Intel  on College Sports Television starting January 21.

Meh. I hate it when they proclaim people "Gaming Elite" (or something of that sort) when all they do is play FPS games. WTF.

These are some of the bigest losers in the world. Aside from professional D&D players.

I could be a gaming superstar too if my wife let me sit at home all day and play games while she earns all the money, does laundry, cleaning, yardwork, etc. I still manage to whoop ass 95 percent of the time on XBOX live in Gears of War.
