Is it wrong to say that most people don't give a crowd about halo anymore?
The gulf between can:go and overwatch events and halo world championship feels like the gulf between the NFL and esports.
Dear god
Is...is that TV using an Xbox One to stream the event.

The venue (which again is frankly irrelevant for the vast majority of the audience) is shit. However, for 99.9% of the people watching the event has been great.
For reference, this was Sony and Call of Duty event last week with MLG for one of their regular tournaments (not their worlds)
.Yes because you'd be wrong. Overwatch is very internationally popular as is CS:Go. Halo has always been NA, UK, Aus popular. Compare and contrast the events run by MLG for CoD and Gears with this. It isn't Halo as a series. Run properly it would probably still challenge CoD. IW has been one of the worst CoD games for pro play in a while. But MLG makes the eventa worthwhile.
Sony?
Wouldn't that be Activision? Given they own both CoD and MLG?
Dear god
No matter how much some companies want to invest in the myth that if you create it, and award enough prize money for being the best at it, gamers will flock to you in droves, its hard to paper over a lack of grass roots fandom with headline-making prize pools.
Nah. I can't agree.
This is precisely because it's shit. Get a decent venue and noticable percentages will come watch live.
Hell, the "less depressing" main arena is appreciably smaller than what Riot uses for each of their four weekly streams. You don't have to go big every broadcast, but when your world championship setup is comparable in size and glitz to the PC cafe section of a typical Gameworks...

I see people trashing on the size of the venue (or defending it) but isn't the real story the lack of interest in this tournament for people seeing it live regardless of the venue? It seems like MS is basically using the tournament for a marketing write off for the game rather than rallying excitement that already exists in the Halo community.
I think the last line of that Kotaku article sums up my feelings on the situation pretty well:
Halo 5 multiplayer doesn't hold a candle to any of the Halo trilogy games.
It even worst then Reach ZBNS.
The only games it beats (and barely) is default reach and Halo 4. Hardly any sort of accomplishment.
