Decent Spectator Sports

What Sports, or even Videogames are really fun to just watch?

I was discussing this last night with a my flatmate, as he likes to watch a lot of Football/Soccer whereas i find watching it damn boring except for those rare occasions when a match is damn interesting such as Liverpool vs AC Milan a few years back in a final.

My flatmate claims to like watching people going nuts on a GTA game, and i would agree with him. I also like watching people doing Expert on Guitar Hero, although my flatmate said he'd prefer to watch someone playing a real guitar that well.

For Sport, nothing blows my mind like top level Table Tennis. Those guys can fucking MOVE.

As far as video games go I've always rather watched than played. I can get into a game of Madden like it's the real thing if I'm on the right chemicals.

In terms of video games, I would say stuff like the Mario series, or even computer games like Mugen, which are definitley my biggest search on YouTube. The videos featuring the game "Mushroom Kingdom Fusion" are awesome as well. The game itself is just freaking hard, and I can't it on my computer half the time anyway.

As for sports, I never really liked them.

video games are never fun to watch others play

the only sports i really watch are mma and boxing and i consider them to be fairly entertaining

I enjoy watching people go all out of Guitar Hero. They give it their whole life, and yet when they fail at it they act as if it's the worst thing to ever befall them.

For video games, CS1.6 is fun to watch, as well as source.

And sporting....MMA is really quite fun to watch.

Yeah it is. It makes boxing look like golf.

Sports-wise, the oly one that really appeals to me to watch is hockey. Probably due to all the dudes being slammed up against the barrier. It's caled schadenfreude.

And video games, anything scay really. Dead Space, stuff like that.

I think they clawed back from 3-nil down to a 3-3 then won on penalties. Twas magic.

Ice hockey, because they destroy each other and usually end up fighting a lot.

[Gorzahg]

aussie rules, ice hockey and UFC are all good to watch

Mixed Marial Arts. He's talking about UFC. (Ultimate Fighting Championship) Check out some videos on youtube. UFC is badass.

[RoboJesus]

Basketball is fairly entertaining.

I prefer to watch boxing over MMA. Always have. There's just something about it.

Boxing is entertaining, it's always a good fight. A bad MMA match is worse than any bad boxing match could ever be, but in my opinion a good MMA match blows a good boxing match out of the water. Plus the knockouts in MMA are just so brutal. And MMA is actually on TV all the time.
