Very concerning indeed. Hopefully it’s resolved, but I’m beginning to think it may be in the best interest of games to choose a new host.

 

I don't think it's that bad... Lima also had its entire OC shuffled with less than two years to go and they delivered.

 

Santiago should not be as problematic as it is a better planned city, unless the protests continue and violence scales.

Today I learned Lappartient is apparently more than only UCI president

Guess I better start playing again. The problem is the ban on FPS games (because that’s mostly what I play). I’d imagine if they add esports, it will be FIFA, LOL, Overwatch 2, and DOTA. I wouldn’t mind seeing Mortal Combat, I Racing or Forza, or Rocket League either.

Given it's for the Pan American Games, we could see Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

That would be awesome.

It's Kombat

 

And I think that game won't be allowed too... You definitely don't want to hear reports about a 5 year old 'finished' his younger sibling to the shock of the parents

Used to play. I stopped after the incident where my thumb ligament was snapped. 
 

Rainbow 6 Siege, Call Of Duty (which ever one was popular), Overwatch (though that’s not really an FPS), Battlefield 1 (You wanted me on your team as medic/sniper, I was one of the best in the game for awhile), Halo 4

So 2023 Pan American Games taekwondo competition could possibly see two of the same country in the same event (as the Youth Pan Am Games champion gets an auto pass).

 

@MHSN thoughts?
