Actually, yes, I remember watching that. The game was called Red Planet, and was run by the folks at the now defunct(?) Virtual World gaming centers. I remember this because they also happened to be the operators of the very cool FASA authorized BattleTech simulators. They aired BattleTech matches on this program as well, although I can't remember what the name of it was. Still somewhat entertaining television...better than anything else I'd be watching on Sunday morning. I do remember there being teams from Japan and a few other Asian countries as well as Canada and the US. How far world gaming has come since then, it appears.
