EA teams up with AOL

Under the terms of the agreement, AOL Sports will now feature EA Sports GameShow as part of its content – which is available to the 10.9 million unique visitors who visit AOL Sports every month.

According to EA, the title is the only live-hosted, interactive online sports trivia game. It features programming that is updated daily, whilst each trivia session is broadcast from the EA Sports GameShow studio in Orlando, Florida (US).

"After several months of Beta testing, we're excited to move to the next phase of EA Sports GameShow," said the title’s 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."

General manager of AOL Sports Derrick Heggans added: "EA Sports GameShow on AOL Sports provides an opportunity for sports enthusiasts to interact in real time in a fun and competitive environment, and provides advertisers a chance to reach targeted consumers in an engaging, interactive environment."

"Community is one of the cornerstones of AOL Sports and EA Sports GameShow is an ideal example of connecting people with their passion for sports. We strive to provide our users unique, best of class offerings and GameShow fits within our mission."
