Everybody's got a competitive side. What games/sports/activities do you compete in against others, and for what reason - money, fame, pride, achievement?

I've been playing trading card games for almost half my life now. Nowadays, it's just Magic, since that's where the only money's at (my primary motivation) outside of actual gambling. I used to play a game called VS System, featuring DC/Marvel characters. Unfortunately, they hemorrhaged money and their competitive circuit folded after 2 1/2 years. Back in the day I played L5R, stopped around 2001 though.

Martial arts, tournement fighting (but honestly, in the past 2 years that has fallen off due to work demands), and Street Fighter.

Still play competitive Street Fighter and am looking for matches with the new PS3 HD Remix version.

Is 4 out? I'm kinda curious, but I'm a small jump and parry whore and I heard 4 has neither.
