ESPN Video Games Channel Announced

With sports being a major category of video gaming, it makes sense that ESPN would one day want to get in on the action of covering it. In partnership with the Ziff Davis Game Group and GameTap, the sports news network launched the ESPN Video Games Channel as a section of their sports news site. Obviously, being a sports network, the ESPN Video Games Channel is dedicated mainly to covering the latest news and features in the world of virtual sports.
One of the main features of the site is a weekly video podcast that will be made available through ESPN.com’s PodCenter. But what video game site could all itself a video game site without offering tons of game-related content, including game previews, demos and strategy guides, and interviews and special features on upcoming sports game titles.

One new feature that’s due to come is the GameTap Video Game Vault, which will become a repository for information and features about some of the most hallowed and respected sports game titles from the past platforms of video gaming history. Okay, call it the Smithsonian for sports-themed video games – that’s the idea!
