| Interplay Focuses On Online Gaming Business |
|
After the return of the official Interplay website approximately three weeks ago (<a href="http://www.rpgdot.com/index.php?hsaction=10077&newsid=39829">story</A>), the site has now been updated with an <a href="http://www.interplay.com/interplay_summary.htm" target="_blank">About Interplay</a> section that reveals that the company is indeed focusing all efforts on the online gaming market (a 'Fallout Online' was even rumored a few months ago as you might remember... <a href="http://www.rpgdot.com/index.php?hsaction=10077&newsid=29890">story</A>, <a href="http://www.rpgdot.com/index.php?hsaction=10077&newsid=30335">story</a> and another semi-related <a href="http://www.rpgdot.com/index.php?hsaction=10077&newsid=35047">story</a>).
<br>Anyway, this is what the page says regarding Interplay's online gaming activities and -yes- a quick "whois" check did confirm that <a href="http://www.gamesonline.com" target="_blank">www.gamesonline.com</a> is in fact a registered domain name of Interplay Corp.<blockquote><em>Our strategy is to invest in products for those platforms, whether PC or video game console, that have or will have sufficient installed bases or a large enough number of potential subscribers for the investment to be economically viable. We do not currently internally develop new products. As we anticipate continued substantial growth in the use of high-speed Internet access, which could provide significantly expanded market potential for online products, we are focusing our efforts to launching an online service, entitled GamesOnLine, allowing consumers to become part of a unique online community of gamers and access selected content.</em></blockquote> |
