Microsoft to Sponsor World Cyber Games

The World Cyber Games has found a new sponsor in Microsoft. Sponsorship will include games, consoles, Xbox Live, accessories, and marketing. World Cyber Games is a group that organizes game tournaments across the world. Game tournaments will be held in Korea (the competitive gaming capital of the world), USA, and Italy. However, as part of the agreement, only Xbox 360 and Windows games will be allowed to be featured in these competitions. That’s a bad blow to games that have broken into the competitive market on other systems like Super Smash Bros. Melee.
