CraveOnline Sports Editor Josh Helmuth gives the latest big update leading up to X Games 2014 with the very surprising announcement that Major League Gaming will be joining the Olympic-like competition for extreme sports.

The MLG event being added to X-Games is a tournament amongst the best teams in the world for "Call Of Duty: Ghosts" for the X Box One console.

The winners will be given X Games gold medals, the same as those who win BMX Vert, Skateboard Big Air and the like.

You can buy tickets for the event on the MLG website.
