A top designer for one of the world's most popular computer games has said that video games should be an Olympics sport. Rob Pardo, who was chief creative designer for the World of Warcraft game, told the BBC hisgame and other video games should be part of the Olympic Games. He said the competition needed to become more modern and up-to-date. He added that millions of people around the world love playing and watching competitive gaming, which is also known as e-sports. Mr Pardo said: "I think the way that you look at e-sports is that it's a very competitive skillset….You look at these professional gamers and the reflexes are lightning quick…. and they're having to make very quick decisions on the fly."
Pardo told the BBC that it would be difficult to get e-sports into the Olympics. He said many people do not even see it as a real sport. He argues it is proper sport because it takes a lot of physical effort and skill and is very exciting to watch. He believes it is a better and more popular sport than many of those already in the Olympics. Pardo said many people did not want gaming to become an Olympic sport because it is based on technology and not athleticism. The PC Magazine website suggests there should be a separate international competition just for e-sports, that could follow a format like the Olympics. This would make gaming the star of the show rather than just another event among many in the Olympics.

世界知名电脑游戏的顶级设计师认为电脑游戏应该成为奥运项目
。罗布·帕尔多是魔兽世界游戏的设计师,他告诉BBC,他所设计的游戏以及其他电脑游戏应该成为奥运会的一部分 。他认为比赛竞争需要更为现代,更加与时俱进 。他补充到全球上百万人都喜欢观看,并参与到这种竞技游戏当中来,我们把它称作电子运动 。帕尔多先生说:“我认为应该把电子体育看成是一种具有竞争性的技能 。当你看到那些职业游戏玩家时,你会看到他们的反应是如此迅速,他们要做出最快的决策” 。帕尔多告诉BBC说,让电子体育进入奥运会是非常艰难的
。他说许多人不认为它是一项运动 。但他确认为这是一种体育运动,因为它消耗了人们的体力劳动,运用了技巧,它的激烈程度也非常适合观看 。他相信这项运动比那些奥运会的传统运动更加流行 。帕尔多说许多人不愿意让电子运动进入奥运会,这是因为它依靠的是技术,而不是运动 。个人电脑杂志网站上称世界应该建立起只属于电子运动的国际赛事,这项赛事可以遵循奥运会的模式 。这将会让游戏成为这类比赛的主角,而不是奥运会中的一项赛事 。译文属可可原创,仅供学习交流使用,未经许可请勿转载
