Revision3 Adds Live Shows: ‘CO-OP Live’ (Not to be Confused with ‘COIN-OP TV Live’)

There’s a little bit of name collision here—which wouldn’t be a first for web series (see: Roommates and Roommates)—but take note that Revision3’s new live streaming show CO-OP Live is in fact different than theStream.tv’s COIN-OP TV Live. The news here is pretty significant for growing online network Revision3, as it is adding their first ever live streaming web series to its lineup.

The hosted gaming culture show, from the creators of the 10-season stalwart The 1Up Show

, kicked off as a standard weekly series back in early March of last year on the network, before Revision3 decided it would be a good test show for the live format. The first live episode of CO-OP Live will premiere today at 4:00 PM (PT), with taped version of the weekly show appearing online the following morning.

“Video games are the ultimate live experience,” said Revision3’s CEO Jim Louderback. “We’re excited to bring the best video game show on the planet, CO-OP, to the world live. I can’t think of a better way to discover the best new games, and to hang out with the coolest gamers on the planet each week!”

The six-man hosting team of Jason Bertrand, Rob Bowen, Matt Chandronait, Ryan O’Donnell, Jay Frechette and Cesar Quintero and have a full explanation of what to expect on their production company blog at Area5.tv:

From a technical standpoint, Revision3 opted to go with their own custom live player for streaming, rather than an off-the-shelf option from video platforms like Ooyala, Episodic or Brightcove. Handling bandwidth needs is their network-wide CDN, BitGravity. At this point no other live web shows have been announced for the network.

For good measure, and to further confuse you, we give you an taste of video gaming series COIN-OP TV Live:
