Overlooking that a videogames division is stupid, it's also too soon to try to capitalize on it since it's just a newer trend right now.

Shouldn't the top medal for that category just be Silver?

I think there needs to be a new ranking system, starting at bronze and going lower.

Which game would they play? Dota2 is the most popular, but completely incomprehensible for the casual viewer. CSGO is easier to understand, but very politically incorrect. Rocket League is easy to grasp, but far from the most popular.

Also this, since you'll never have a single consistent event.

not that I think it's a good idea, but wouldn't it make more sense for video games to have their own olympics, not event? it's a set of competitions/challenges, not a particular one.

I suppose this is just being done for publicity.

tbh, that would make more sense, although even then you'd have issues because games aren't a consistent, static thing.
