Saw the documentary Beyond The Game by Jos de Putter on the PVR yesterday evening. Watch the Dutch version for free online. The game follows 2 professional Warcraft 3 game professionals and world champions, Chinese SKY and Dutch Grubby. It gives an intriguing peek into the world of real-time strategy games where a lot of youngsters worldwide reside for a considerate amount of time each day. The only thing I missed was an insight into the personal motivations of the 2 players to get involved into the game and their views on the physical and mental consequences of playing it - especially on their level. Some hints with regards to the latter point are given by a former Swedish world champion, but still could have gotten a bit more attention I think. Recommended nonetheless.
