GameIndustry.biz has the scoop on GDI’s new games on demand service. The beta test for A World of My Own promises game downloads in minutes rather than hours. GDI boss Roger Walkden has this to say on why AWOMO will blow other games on demand systems out of the water.
“I was sent a release the other day saying how a game was available for the user to play only a few hours after downloading. Well, why the hell do you have to wait a few hours for anything? That’s what our service stresses. What is currently taking other sites several hours to download, our system does it in minutes. That is proper games on demand. Two hours isn’t ‘on demand’, it’s like waiting for a bus.”
The AWOMO beta test is scheduled to begin in the next few weeks. Registration is open at AWOMO.com.
