Xbox Live To Add New Social Gaming Channel
Xbox Live will be adding a whole new channel to their line-up – the social gaming channel. This is yet another chance for Microsoft to bring in some of the more casual and laid back gamers. They want the ones who are not addicted to certain games and therefore do not always have the interest in playing. They are using “programmatic, highly concurrent social interactive games” to reel them in.
In other words you can expect to see “game shows” or Xbox Live versions of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and Jeopardy. It will also feature some concepts in the genres of “Trivia, Reality TV, Puzzles and Sports” that will allow them to play live event and to win some virtual prizes.
