Well this is certainly an interesting development for the world of eSports. Earlier this year, we got wind that IGN had cancelled its annual Vegas "Pro League" event, with the rumor being that the site's new owner was looking to sell off some of its subsidiary brands.
Recently, I delved into the causes and concerns raised by SimCity's always-on debacle. However, the controversial mechanic was by no means introduced by that game. Always-online systems might be a relatively new development in the industry, but even in its short time, it's already made waves.

A snowstorm of historic proportions is rolling through the southern Plain states leaving behind up to 12-inches of snow in some areas and forcing the closure of up to 400-miles of highway, according to AccuWeather.
StarCraft was the game that really pushed eSports into the limelight, so it makes sense that Blizzard Entertainment is continuing to push the online aspects of StarCraft II. Their latest trailer for the upcoming expansion, Heart of the Swarm, focuses on eSports and multiplayer features for the game.
Blizzard is finally giving Diablo 3 players what most of them want - the right and ability to pummel fellow humans (why else do you think it's called Battle.Net?)with the loot they've collected from slaying demons. Patch 1.07 is officially live now in the Americas, and introduces free-for-all PvP into the popular PC game for the first time.
The U.S. Northeast was digging out on Sunday after a blizzard dumped up to 40 inches (one meter) of snow with hurricane force winds, killing at least nine people and leaving hundreds of thousands without power.
