GamePolitics reports on the results from the World Cyber Games, held in Singapore this year. The U.S. didn't come out badly in the medal count, with the Ryans taking the gold in Halo 2. From the article: "At the closing ceremony, Dr. Lee Boon Yang, Singapore's Minister for Information, Communications and the Arts said, 'Digital games as part of the whole entertainment and media ecosystem is big business and a growing contributor to the global creative economy. We are therefore proud to be the host country of such events as they serve to reinforce Singapore's position as a regional hub and gateway to Asia.'"

So how did the Frozen Bubble game go? I didn't see it in the results.
Or tetris for that matter, or Quake3...

All of these run on a lot more platforms than *ahem* Halo 2.

Hang on this is the World Cyber Games isn't it. What do you mean it's just some contest for a couple of games on Microsoft-only platforms?
