cannes_mipcom_game_show.jpg

Two Finnish guys, Michael and Maesky, from Make It Real Sports think the 145 million gamers (their number, not ours) the world over, more players than any other sport, should have representation at Cannes MIPCOM and have announced their own call for entries of a sort. They’re asking people to send in videos lauding the importance of virtual sports as compared to real sports. They’ll take the top four videos and their creators to Cannes MIPCOM, all expenses paid. They’re goal is to shop the videos as fodder the creation of a gamer-based television show. English is obviously not their primary language so go easy on them if and when you visit the site.
