Madden To Incorporate Real-Time Injury and Weather Conditions
This is pretty awesome (do the kids still say "awesome" anymore?):
Quote:
Beginning in August, thanks to a deal with The Weather Channel, a Madden ‘08 NFL game at the Baltimore Ravens’ stadium automatically will be set in the snow if it happens to be snowing that day on Maryland’s Atlantic coast.
Similar innovations soon will allow an option to incorporate current sports news and statistics from ESPN into the game.
“So if a guy in the real world twists his ankle, you can’t use him in the game until he gets back,” said Aaron LaBerge, senior vice president of technology and product development for ESPN.
