The Growth of Wireless Gaming
July 16, 2002 - Press Release
There are a multitude of wireless solutions in the marketplace. The vast majority fall short of the mark in offering a practical Real-time gaming solution.
Wireless solutions are most visible in the Sports sector today, due to the nature of the transaction, i.e. a snapshot in time of the odds, moneyline, etc. – place your bet.
These wagers take place in a static environment, a snapshot in time. These solutions have not and cannot be adapted to a real-time gaming environment, much the same as a still camera cannot be adapted to effectively be a movie camera.
Real-time gaming demands movie camera type technology that delivers the same speed, security and action as the Internet gaming experience.
Factors affecting Wireless Gaming:
- What happens if the impact of this trend is ignored?
- How can you prepare for this tidal change?
- Does wireless gaming really work, Real-time?
- Will new software applications have to be written?
- Which wireless solutions to avoid or embrace?
