    Who will be the first B&B Olympian? Who will be the first ‘to medal’? Not me, unless they introduce a new category ‘Scoring from corners on Sensible Soccer on an Amiga 500’.

    This is a thread to discuss e-sports at the Olympics. When the first ever gold medal is awarded for an e-sports athlete in 2150, remember me.

    Bring it.
    That was awkward and unsettling, never post anything like it again.

    I want a good medal for all the hours I wasted on this:

    If there's a medal for most hours put into Demon's Souls without actually technically finishing the game, then I reckon I might be in with a shout. I have restarted that game so many times with new builds, new routes, new strategies, yet never actually got around to killing the last boss

    edit: Though I was the motherfucking Don at both Crazy Taxi and Time Crisis, and owned the leaderboards on both at Bournemouth Pier Amusements

    There was a Carl Lewis game on the Amiga that I played so vigorously with my Maverick joystick I ended up with a blister on the palm of my hand.
