Re: why EA *is* sweating...
We had a post about this earlier, so you're not the only person thinking about this.......but I don't think it would matter than ESPN's old Konomi games sucked, they could still have been advertised. If they got a HUGE push from the channel, then the game would sell, regardless of how bad it is. Just look at Triple Play......but I am hoping to see a bunch of advertisements for the game on ESPN, for no other reason than it would help(in the slightest way) bring Sega Sports closer to the level EA has gotten to. So then maybe people won't just goto the store, see the EA logo & buy the game of whatever sport they want, maybe someone will say "hey, Sega, those are those ESPN games, that looks good." It's just ridiculous how many copies of horrible games EA gets away with selling(mainly Triple Play & Live). And if this happens, EA will be forced to put the same effort into Live & TP that is does into NCAA & Madden that make those games so great. It would be great if it got to the point where more people bought Sega games just for the ESPN logo, I wonder what EA would do then....
