Gamecaster
Gamecaster Inc. is an American corporation based in San Diego, California. The company holds a patent in virtual camera control technology. According to Teamxbox.com, Gamecaster is responsible for creating "the world’s first video game camera". This technology is responsible for combining video gaming and the broadcasting of sports events; thus introducing video gaming as a spectator sport. According to CBS news, "The ability to broadcast from within the game completely changes the way people view video game competitions." In 2008, IGN wrote, "If Gamecaster has its way, video game competitions will become just as much a part of American television viewing as the Super Bowl or the World Series."
