Verizon has launched online game portal www.games.verizon.com, providing access to more than 1,500 games. Verizon has partnered with digital media company Exent and its GameTanium product to create a more engaging, game-like environment.
Verizon Games provides access to PC games like Cooking Dash, Bejeweled 2, Plants vs. Zombies, and Boggle.
Jason Henderson, games product manager at Verizon said “The early positive feedback from our test gamers has been overwhelming, and we’ve been looking forward to the opportunity to open up the new Verizon Games experience to all of our customers. With the new app and Web site, people will get the same unparalleled customer experience from their PC games service as they do from Verizon’s TV, Internet, and phone services.”
The updated app includes a community program that provides access to an avatar and 3D animated games lounge, and allows players to earn trophies and prize points.
In other Verizon news, the company on Monday showed off some of the technological contributions it is making to the new Meadowlands Stadium in New Jersey – home to the New York Giants and New York Jets.
Verizon is teaming with Cisco to bring 34 channels of customized HD content to the stadium, which will let fans view a variety of content at select areas throughout the venue. The Giants and Jets are also working with Verizon to provide fans with customized apps that will show concession information, team news, player information, scores and highlights.
