Competitive video gaming - known as e-sports - should beincluded in the
Olympic Games, the creator of World of Warcrafthas told the BBC.
著名电子游戏《魔兽世界》的开发者近日在BBC的节目中表示，竞赛类的电子游戏(即人们所熟知的电子竞技体育)应归入奥运会比赛项目。
Rob Pardo, who until July was chief creative officer at
BlizzardEntertainment, said "sport" now had a broad definition.
今年七月刚卸任的著名游戏公司暴雪娱乐(Blizzard
Entertainment)前创意总监罗布·帕尔多(RobPardo)认为，现在“体育”的概念比以往更宽泛。
"Videogames are well positioned to be a spectator sport," he told Afternoon
Edition on BBC 5Live.
帕尔多在英国广播公司第五频道的《下午要闻》(Afternoon
Edition)节目中说道：“电子游戏比赛正好可以归为观赏性强的竞技运动类型。”
Professional e-sports events currently attract audiences of millions.
专业电子竞技比赛一般可吸引数百万名观众。
A recent major final held inSeoul,South Korea, filled a stadium of 40,000
people - with many morewatching either online or at meet-ups around the
world.
近日在韩国首尔举行的一场大型电玩决赛现场中，可容纳4万名观众的体育场座无虚席，还有更多的人在全球各地通过网络或剧集在一起观看了直播。
"There's a very good argument for e-sports being in the Olympics," Mr
Pardo, who was also leaddesigner on Starcraft: Brood War, a game often credited
with kickstarting the e-sportsphenomenon.
“电子竞技体育成为奥运会项目有相当充分的理由，”同时负责设计《星际争霸：母巢之战》的帕尔多说对此说道。该系列作品被普遍认为推动了世界竞技体育的发展。
"I think the way that you look at e-sports is that it's a very competitive
skillset and you look atthese professional gamers and the reflexes are lightning
quick and their having to make very quickdecisions on the fly.
“人们看待电子竞赛应该主要看这些：它有充满竞技性的技能组合，专业的玩家闪电般的反应能力以及在混乱中迅速做出决定的能力。

"When you look at their 'actions per minute', they're clearing over 300."
However, he concededthat video gaming faces a cultural battle to win other those
who follow more physical sports.
“他们每分钟的操作次数起码超过300次。” 但帕尔多也承认电子竞赛面临着一个文化壁垒：人们更接受体能型的体育项目。
"That starts getting into how you define sport," he said.
“这就要先转变你对体育的理解，”他说。
"If you want to define sport as something that takes a lot of physical
exertion, then it's hard toargue that videogames should be a sport, but at the
same time, when I'm looking at things thatare already in the Olympics, I start
questioning the definition."
“如果你认为体育是种体力运动，那你很难说服别人将电子竞技定义为体育。但与此同时，我也看到目前一些奥运会比赛项目也不完全是传统定义中的体育类型，所以我认为体育的定义正处于变化中。”
Having new sports admitted into the Olympic roster is a long-winded process
and, since theInternational Olympic Committee (IOC) capped the number of sports
allowed in the Games, hasbecome increasingly difficult.
任何新运动项目要想加入奥运会项目都有非常漫长的过程，而国际奥委会(IOC)对比赛体育数量的限定更是增大了难度。
Even if e-sports were to be recognised as an Olympic sport, that does not
mean it will be includedin the Games - it merely means a case can be presented
to the IOC.
即使电子竞技体育有朝一日被认可为一项奥运会项目，也不意味着能成为比赛项目，只能说明是时候可以向国际奥委会提出申请了。
