EA unveils first live online gameshow

EA Sports has announced a deal with AOL Sports to offer a new online sports quiz, claiming that the game is the only one to be hosted live.

GameShow will carry programming that is updated daily, with each trivia session broadcast from EA's purpose-built studio in Orlando.

“After several months of Beta testing, we’re excited to move to the next phase of EA Sports' GameShow,” said executive producer Roy Harvey.

“This agreement with AOL provides an outstanding opportunity to introduce new sports fans from across the country to ‘live broadcast gaming’, a captivating, innovative form of entertainment.”

GameShow now features on the AOL Sports channel, which boasts 10.9 million unique monthly visitors.
