I am an AVID gamer, but when they began referring to pro gamers as "atheletes", I drew the line. Granted, the pros are exceptionally talented players, they have godlike hand-eye coordination and reflexes, and are rarely fat losers who live in their parent's basement.


Those people dont tend to move beyond the basement.

But gatorade is for replenishing electrolytes after strenous activity. I definately see what zero is getting at; they are marketting it as if the "stress" of gaming demands the replenishment.

In my experience, gaming for hours on end demands cans of biscuits (pilsbury, of course) and beer. Lots of beer.
