Verizon Gaming Service PlayLinc

Verizon and Super Computer International have developed a software called PlayLinc to break into the gaming industry. The software itself isn’t a game, however it is a meeting place. For those of you that love what Xbox Live has done for online gaming than this idea is something to pay attention to. With this software you will be able to find your friends and pals and. The site does a better job of explaining it than I do.

Developed by Super Computer International, PlayLinc is a next-generation online game browsing and messaging platform that gives gamers more control over their multiplayer gaming interactions, a richer set of social networking tools and a wider variety of gaming experiences.

Among the features gamers can take advantage of on the PlayLinc™ Service will be support for a variety of gaming platforms, messaging tools including AIM\ICQ and fully multiplexed VOIP, dynamic server launching, server browsing, buddy tracking, player invitations, Team Management, on-game controls, and more.

The software is still in beta but you can give it a download it and try it out, I personally can’t seem to install it. Still cool to see that Verizon is getting into gaming, and for those of you with FiOS I am sure this type of software will be very needed for more intense gaming sessions as well as better oganized fun.
