page 1: Introduction

Gaming is rapidly becoming more popular in the world each day and with the ever-growing list of professional gamers, there has got to be people behind the eSports industry to make everything happen. From the World Cyber Games to the Electronic Sports World Cup, there are always extra people behind the tournaments, the matches and the professional players. One group of people who work behind the scenes of eSports are the commentators in which they provide viewers of certain matches some sort of guide to what’s going on and entertain the viewers with their on-going speech and logic of the match.

One commentator infamous for his fast-paced commentary style and heart-racing view on the matches he covers is  Stuart "TosspoT" Saw. Stuart has attended many offline events doing what he does best, and has also covered a large amount of online tournaments on shout casts being broadcasted to thousands of people around the world. Coming from a Return to Castle Wolfenstein background which was his first major interest in gaming, he now covers various games with shout casting group QuadV alongside long-time co-worker Paul "ReDeYe" Chaloner.

 
Along with online and offline service QuadV, Stuart also does various work on a show-to-show basis for UK eSports television channel Xleague TV (Sky 279) where he does live commentary on the show 'The Match' again with co-workers Paul Chaloner and Jay Atkins from QuadV and runs community eSports web site Crossfire.nu in his own time. Stuart’s main interest in gaming at the moment is the newly released Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and has described himself as hooked since the games release.

I had a chance to catch up with Stuart for an exclusive interview where we discussed Call of Duty 4, his work for Xleague TV, gaming in general and even more Call of Duty 4. So without further a-do, check over to the next few pages to see the words from the man himself, Mr. Stuart Saw.

Its a nice article and of course, Stu is a great guy, however I would like some alterations made to this introduction.

You may think this is being picky, however it is important to ensure people are not in anyway misled.

Stuart does NOT work for Xleague and neither do I, in fact none of the people who work for QuadV work for Xleague. Xleague hire our commentators on a show by show basis, much like a talent agency and the people they hire do NOT work for them, they work for QuadV and are loaned out. The two companies, whilst having a great relationship, are NOT in any way joined together, either financially or otherwise.

Furthermore, it is innacurate to describe QuadV as "online". We are an Internet broadcaster and have several other functions such as full production services, talent loaning, presentations, documentaries and event coverage. Further, QuadV is a Limited company registered in England and Wales and Stuart is a Company Director along with myself, Joe and Oliver.
