G4 TV will be at Evolution next week, helping providing more than 40 hours of tournament coverage. In addition to that, their X-Play show on July 20 will be solely dedicated to the happenings of Evolution.
The network plans to provide coverage of all six main games in the tournament series.
UPDATE: I, as well as a few others, believed this meant two streams, because Level|Up was first announced as providing a broadcast for Evolution. Level|Up and G4 will be teaming up to provide the live broadcast of the tournament.
There's more on the Evolution site:
Beginning at 9:00am PT July 9th, G4TV.com, powered by Stickam, the first live streaming video network, will offer unprecedented access to the EVO 2010 world championships with 45 hours of non-stop live streaming coverage. The exclusive stream will feature tournament matches between top players, with live crowd audio accompanied by expert commentary to explain all the onscreen action. This streaming event will run from the start of the tournament on July 9th through the finals on July 11th.
“Live streaming really ups the ante for viewer engagement,” said Steven Fruchter, CEO of Stickam. “Since 2006, Stickam has truly paved the way for real-time interactive Web television, and we’re excited to see how G4 fans react when they can truly take part in the EVO world championships.”
