HEADLINE: Games,
Inc. Expands Its Multi-Player Game Collection With the Addition
of Online Poker
BODY:
Games, Inc. (OTCBB:GMSI) announced today they
will begin offering multi-player
Online Poker games.
In response to the growing popularity of Poker,
Games, Inc. will offer a multi-player version of 5-Card Draw Poker
on its www.Gameland.com and www.Games.org websites. Players can
play for free or use their Roll of Quarters(tm) to enter a tournament
where they can win prizes. Last month, Games, Inc. announced that
they are distributing over One Million Dollars in virtual quarters
to visitors to their websites for entry into Poker and other tournament
games.
"Our tournament games have proven to be
very popular with our players and we plan to expand this tournament
system with the addition of several new games prior to year end,"
said Roger Ach, President and CEO.
"We believe that Poker makes a great addition
to the single and multi-player casual games that we offer on these
sites," said Myles Cairns, Games, Inc. CFO.
"This is only the first of the Poker-style games we will
be offering on the site. We plan to add at least two more Poker
games before the end of 2004."
Cincinnati, Ohio-based Games, Inc. owns and
operates a portfolio of online
portals focused on the delivery of interactive entertainment
and content to consumers. The Company features two community-focused
online game sites as well as proprietary games for purchase-and-download,
conventional online play, peer-to-peer and tournament game play.
Games, Inc. also features a digital greetings site and a site
and proprietary back-end system for the online facilitation and
reporting of state and provincially-sponsored Lotteries.
Revenues are largely driven by online advertising and subscriptions;
however proprietary content delivery and decremented payment systems
will enable software licensing to become a component of the revenue
mix along side merchandise and lottery-driven commissions. For
more information, please visit the Company's corporate website,
www.gamesinc.net, or their portfolio sites, www.games.org, www.gameland.com,
www.skillmoney.com, www.lottery.com and www.cards.com or contact
