Major League Gaming Season Opens Today

Registration is closed, but spectators can still enjoy the competition.

Major League Gaming's 2010 season begins today, at Disney's ESPN Wide World of Sports in Orlando, Florida. The event invites the top professionals and aspiring amateurs to compete in any of this year's gaming line-up of Tekken 6, Halo 3, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

While registration is now closed for those participating in events, spectators can pay a $25 fee to attend, and those interested in watching the Tekken or Halo 3 matches can visit http://www.mlgpro.com/ and pay $10 to watch a live stream of the competitions. Unfortunately, Brawl won't be broadcast over the stream, woefully because MLG was unable to receive broadcast rights through Nintendo, but interested fans will still be able to remain up-to-date on the competition's standings via MLG's website.

Our Take

Despite being based in Florida, no one from PixlBit can make it to the event. Still, especially if our readers have an interest in the MLG, expect to see a bit more coverage of it from us. In the future, we do hope to provide on-the-floor coverage of a few select MLG events, particularly ones like this, that are more-or-less local to us.

That all said, it's too bad they can't broadcast the Brawl stream. I've never gotten into Halo 3, and find Tekken hard to enjoy watching, so Brawl is the one I'd like to see most. Still, I've seen a few youtube videos of high-level Brawl players, and unfortunately, the game isn't as exciting to watch as Melee was before it.
