I was just wondering what you guys think about the term "professional video game players"
It seems a bit elitist or snobish. But then again there are titles like professional hockey players and that seems perfectly ok to me. But when I hear the words professional video gamer used in the same sentance it feels very elitist.
Probably also the fact that there are a ton of gamers and these Professional gamers are singalling themselves out as the best when it isnt always true. Anyways maybe I have a biased opinion so I just want to hear what some other people have to say.
