Virgin Games partners with GDI to launch "A
World Of My Own" 3D Online Gaming Platform
Downloading
of video games is to grow rapidly after the launch
of a new platform that aims to replicate the functionality
of iTunes, making it quicker and cheaper for gamers
to download their favourite games.
Virgin
Games and Game Domain International (GDI) today
announce the successful completion of live tests
for delivering a wide range of PC games on a 3D
'virtual world' platform.
The
platform offers many key advantages over existing
technologies - including rapid download speeds
enabling play within minutes instead of hours,
far greater security, and improved ease of use
for the customer.
The
platform's name - A
World of My Own (AWOMO) is expected to significantly
accelerate the growth of the total games market
- already valued at $25b* making it bigger than
the movie industry. AWOMO will initially make
money on a pay per play or subscription basis.
Sir
Richard Branson, Chairman of Virgin said: "This
is a really exciting development for us, as it
gives us the opportunity to do for PC Games what
iTunes has done for music. The GDI technology
will revolutionise how the mass market will play
games, and will give them more choice for less
money."
The
PC games industry is plagued by high distribution
costs and piracy which has hampered the growth
of this market. Several of the world's major games
publishers have already registered their support.
The Koch Media Group, Europe's largest PC games
distributor, working with major brands such as
EA, Ubisoft and Deep Silver, were one of the first
to witness this new technology in action. At the
recent demonstration, their reaction was so enthusiastic
that negotiations are already underway to sign
off on a range of games to be made available on
AWOMO when it launches.
Koch
Media are one of the pioneers of on line distribution
and work with e–tailers such as Metaboli
and Gamesload and have many years experience in
on line delivery but are constantly looking for
ways to improve their service.
Roger
Bennett, former director of ELSPA, the games industry
association, said: "After twenty one years
in the computer and video games industry, I can
honestly say I have recently seen in operation
the most unique technology that can bring the
most potential value to the industry."
Chris
Gorman OBE, director of GDI, says, "The highly
alluring combination of being able to download
a game in minutes instead of the existing standard
few hours and the promoted mega cash prize gaming
tournaments will create a Mecca of opportunities
for sponsors and promoters to target the vast
gaming community."
GDI
intend to launch their AWOMO platform later in
2007 with a large selection of games available
in order to meet the huge international demand
expected.
