Comments on: Does playing sport video games lead to increased viewing on that sport?

i would say that its a little bit of both. Either the excitement of watching a certain sport or a perticular game drives you to want to recreate that game and that moment in the video game. As far as the video game i would say playing it before a game comes on actually makes you want to watch that game that is if you are aware of the game.

i could not tell you... but i would say they will be out there, but not easily assessable, as companys would pay big to compile the info in the first place..
