I first played Starcraft when I was about 14 years old

Jørgen is ranked as one of the best StarCraft players in Europe

Think about it: If you keep your attention in one place for ten seconds,

then you're doing something wrong

At any given time you have to defend, attack, build units, and explore enemy territory

The best StarCraft players have a clicking and typing rate at about 500 times a minute

It's called APM - actions per minute

5, 6, 7 key presses or mouse clicks a second

That's the point when you start to feel slightly warm after a game of StarCraft

The first edition of StarCraft was released in 1998

The game is just as popular today, 12 years later

11 million copies of the game have been made

Half of those have been sold in South Korea

It is like a national sport in South Korea

Often, the match is held outdoors at a huge venue

a bit like a big concert, really

thousands of people

they're like crazy!

the atmosphere is great

Teenage girls are the most devoted fans

it is crazy if you think about it

in Europe, girls hardly know what a computer game is

in Korea it's the other way around: there are hundreds of screaming girls in the audience

You have 12 sponsored teams

each team has 15-20 players

coaches, chefs -they all live in a house together

the only thing they do is to eat and play StarCraft

The best Korean players play between 8 and 16 hours a day

Jørgen has been a professional CounterStrike player with several world titles

I enjoy competition

I enjoy winning

One would think it's necessary to sit in front of the computer all the time in order to become a good player

But a day consists of 24 hours, eight of them are for sleeping

that leaves 16 hours, and it's hardly necessary to play 16 hours a day

Prime time for a player is from the age of 16 to 25

I don't really know why, it's about reflexes and interests

what you want to make out of your life

it becomes a bit tedious to sit in front of the computer all the time

I think it is different today, as people play all day long from the age of 12. It's not healthy.

StarCraft has the biggest online gaming community: 12 million active users

Gaming will become huge in the rest of the world, too

We're becoming more and more digitalised This is the future of entertainment
