That said, you could make the argument that the games are simply equipment, in the same way you need to buy swimming trunks, poles for vaulting, kayaks, whatever Yeah but you can get trunks from Nike or Under Armour or whoever and still swim. You can make your own if you really need to. But you can't play Starcraft in competition without Blizzard's product, or without the entire event being an advertisement for that product. It also puts a third party in charge, at least in part, of the rules of the competition. The IOC would still be able to set rules for the format, such as what game modes are played, what maps are allowed, etc, but the game balance would still be whatever's determined by the developers. --- SuperNiceDog didn't have to reconcile his name...
