Game(s) On, says Internode

Business IT - Networking

Internode has relaunched its Games On Net gaming service following a revamp and hardware upgrades. The service was previously called the Internode Games Network.

Games On Net provides game servers in South Australia, New South Wales, Western Australia and Queensland, with mirrored SAN storage in Adelaide and Sydney.

According to Games On Net administrator Richard Burke, the changes will improve performance by bringing content closer to Australian and international users. The servers can accommodate more than 4000 concurrent users.

Games On Net, which has moved to www.games.on.net, is part of Internode's unmetered content offering. It is also available to customers of other ISPs at no charge.

The most popular games are currently Team Fortress 2, Call of Duty 4 and Counterstrike: Source.

In addition to the game servers, Games On Net also provides games software for download, plus demo versions of commercial titles.

The revamped site is intended to appeal to a broader audience.

"In future, we will publish more reviews from a wider range of freelance writers, and also publish games content that is suitable for younger people," said Burke.

"The forums appeal to a wide range of people, including regular members in their 60s and 70s. The new Games On Net is even more appealing to a broader range of age groups."
