ESPN Integration
This article needs additional citations for verification. (August 2007) |
ESPN Integration is an agreement between
MVP 06 NCAA Baseball. The features that have so far appeared include a streaming ticker at the bottom of the screen with real up to date sports scores, just as it appears on the ESPN channel. This ticker does not just crawl during menus and load screens but also in actual gameplay. Another feature is the ability to listen to sports updates from ESPN Radio
, and a third feature is being able to read the top 40 sports stories from ESPN.com.
Much of this deal was done on the part of EA Sports to prevent ESPN from selling its brand name to another game manufacturer, like they did with
NFL
.
