Major League Gaming CEO

Sundance DiGiovanni has stated there is "a chance" that Quake Live will make an appearance in the 2011 MLG season.

Co-founder and CEO of Major League Gaming Sundance DiGiovanni is always one to let it be known what's on his mind. Immediately after his jump up to CEO, he gave a seriously in-depth interview to Live on Three surrounding all kinds of topics regarding MLG.

"We met with the id guys. They're fantastic and really wanna work with us and hook us up, and it's really really exciting stuff," Sundance said back in May on his Live on Three segment. "And then we get to the place where we're like... Who the hell's going to pay for this?

It would be quite, quite awesome to see Quake get picked up by another major circuit. I'm crossing my fingers.

Same here, although all this speculations are getting ridiculous.

I think we'll see Quake Live in 2011 in MLG. I highly doubt that it'll be a major focus of the season however. Maybe it can grow on just making an appearance to becoming a fully supported title one day.

Who the hell's going to pay for this?

Easy, MLG will, that is whenever they stop supporting garbage like Super Smash Bros and WoW, and Halo eventually.

Not to disagree with your post entirely, but Smash Brothers is not a garbage game (at least it wasn't until the Wii). In fact there are strong parallels between Quake's strafe jumping and Smash's wave dashing. Both were discovered as "artifacts" of the game engine, and both led to skill based movement becoming an essential (in fact rudimentary) part of competitive play.
