Comcast To Launch GameInvasion.net

By BroadCasting & Cable Staff -- Broadcasting & Cable, 12/4/2006 7:05:00 PM

  Comcast is making its gaming-focused site GameInvasion.net available to a national audience. The site, previously only available to the cable company's high-speed Internet customers, is targeted at the hard-core gaming community.

    The site will now expand, through a deal with pro-video game league Major League Gaming, to stream the league's MLG Pro Circuit TV show. The show will also run on Comcast On Demand.

On Halloween, for example, it launched VOD/Internet horror channel FearNet and in Nov. it unveiled
