I was thinking about how popular Halo has become and how infinite the replay value has become. Well, it would seem that as the series progresses it may turn into an olympic sport. I can see how Halo will be in some tricked out Lawnmower Man 2 virtual reality suits. The Germans will be against America in an intense game at Blood Gulch 23. Awww... I can't wait. What is the future of Halo to you?

I doubt Halo would be an Olympic sport. Its possible that Halo 2 may create a World Championships, but I very much doubt Olympics would come into the picture.

From Halo there has been many tournaments around the world and there probably has been some sort of international competition. From the hype of Halo 2, I think we may actually have some sort of World Championships.

If there are ever some heavy duty championships, then I hope that someone will put some cameras in the game that float around catching the action. Then it could be directed live, kinda like sport broadcasting. It would be more interesting to watch to those who don't play Halo.

I can see it now. The saving grace for fat pale kids. They could finally achieve their goal of being an olympic gold medalist!

More like "Halo 2 as an Olympic sport."

Halo isn't balanced enough for a worldwide competition.
