FUNTECH PARTNERS WITH DIRECTV
New Game Lounge site features a range of skill games
The new Directtv Game Lounge skill games site operated by FUNTech subsidiary Skilljam, features everything from Sudoku to Solitaire, Bejewelled to Poker and Hotwheels to Jamtris and offers cash prizes for its interactive television skill gaming audience.
Players using the new facility will be able to participate through their remote controls, and Skilljam is to launch television versions of eight of its online games including solitaire and free cell.
Not all DirecTV boxes and remote controls can get Game Lounge at present but curious viewers can tune into channel 110 and press the blue button. Games can be previewed for free with a monthly Game Pass costing $5.99 a month or get a single game pass for $1.95.
DirecTV are also talking about interactive "Plus" games which are designed for PVRs only and play from the PVR's hard drive. These will apparently be coming soon.
