@Cronky:
Who the hell told something about commentators? 
Who the hell WOULDN'T talk about commentators?
Spectator mode has little practical uses because it's simply for viewing people playing a game that they could be playing themselves. While you could learn some techniques by watching more experienced players, it's a very loose use of the word "Learn". You're again... just watching. You could watch a million videos about how to draw a realistic human figure and still only be able to draw a stickman (and not a very good one at that).
Now with tournaments you would of course need commentators. Why? Because all good tournaments have commentators. If Starcraft wasn't a good enough example. Take UT and the announcer commentating on your current action or status. HEADSHOT. KILLING SPREE. RAMPAGE. M-M-M-MONSTER KILLLLL. Now that's a computer. Not exactly what I was getting at above (that's again more of an announcer), but still. Olympics as another example? Sports of many flavors also?
How am I supposed to understand how much skill was in any single round of a Pro-level game of PS if I don't have someone shouting vaguely technical, yet obvious statements about what the players are doing? Perhaps with some humorous banter between the two commentators (I like the idea of two. More lively.)
PLUS commentators just sounds NIICE when you use it to describe a match. Imagine if you will that you're looking up a match on Youtube. It's titled " PS Tourney Semi-Finals Round 1: Mario Bros Vs Double Dragon | Commentated by Lone Ranger & Tonto" (Each group has two people, get it?). Sure, long name, but after a few matches they wouldn't have to put their name on it anymore. You'd just KNOW. Just has a nice sound to it. Like it was something more than a match of a game that you wouldn't care about otherwise. How many full on matches of CoD do you watch that aren't titled "!!!AMAZING NO DEATH BLOPS MATCH WIZZOR 25-0!!!" or something similar? I'm guessing not many.
So in short, WHO told something about commentators? ME. It was the natural progression of a Spectator mode in my mind. Without commentators, you just have a bunch of people watching a game in silence.
Could they take spectator to another level in tournaments?? Give commentator slots and spectator slots. Commentators can be heard by spectators, but spectators can't talk. Can spectators talk to each other in general? Or is it just a silent viewing (sounds boring).
I've gone on long enough.
(Did you read the whole thing? Because I will be impressed if so!)
(P.S. I hope this is read as sarcastically as possible. I do like commentators though
)
