Should video games be considered a sport?

[Extrovert]

If you come up with, for example, virtual reality glasses with some kind of module for movement, this is a very interesting idea of ​​combining sports and computer games!

In Korea it is considered like a sport with competitions

[anastasia.graciaa]

No, because sports need a move from almost all of your body when video games only required hand and eye coordination

Of course in Korea and Japan, they love video games more then they love to breathe. 

[Booktransform12]

I think its not right

[vabalkazh]

I think cybersport will overcome traditional ones in about 10 to 15 years. Its way more interesting to watch besides you would actually need to work hard as same as you do in "traditional" sports.

Video games should not be a sport. First sport  require physical activity, moving your hand all day and starring at a screen is not a sport.

May be yes may be no but some part of the world the considered it sports.

[Spacebound01]

No not a sport. Video games is so addicted and for me it cannot help your body to improve. Sports is like reality what u do is happen, In games all of that is fantasy. 

[edwardsolo69]

absolutely yes, it is considered an e-sport, means electronic sport. look at dota 2 their prize pool is exceeding to 20 million dollars, and the players around the world are millions in number. the e-sport community is growing exponentially every year, so that is why it must be considered a sport.

You can call it whatever you want but playing video games can not be a sport.

[makpol19]

Now a days there are many games where there is a lot of competition, which qualifies video games.

[Kaido_sama]

Yes it can not be called sport but it can be called esport,

[darkdangem]

I think it should be because it requires:

1. mental attribute
2. mental alertness
3. Coordination of index finger movements
4. Vision skills
5. Strategic Thinking Skills
6. Team work
7. Etc..

[mintevacuateY]

No, it should not be considered as the sports as it is something that is meant only for fun.

I started laughing at > Coordination of index finger movements!
ROFL

[chikendrymak4]

In my opinion, it should be considered as sports as it also helps in team building.

[ethereumyeahhh]

Video games cannot be considered as sports as they do not have that authenticity.

This is a brain exercise, and certainly only a few games that require strategic thinking and teamwork, for example is dota. E-Sports is like Chess.

Since it makes a lot of money for the economics and have so much spectators so i think it should be consider a sport. I also think players for profesional teams should earn as the privilege as other sports players.

[Jimitieu]

Of course video games should be considered a sport. I see it grows very well today and many professional teams have come out. It gives a lot of money to gamers and game developers
