The famous social network MySpace announced that it has reached an agreement with Oberon Media to create a special channel on its website in order to allow registered users to play single and multiplayer games online.

Moreover, the MySpace members will have the possibility to customize their profiles with game information as well as inviting other users to play games on MySpace. The games will also include communication features provided by an in-built chat which will enable the consumers to communicate without leaving the game. The gaming platform is set to be released in the first months of 2008.

"We're very excited to be partnering with MySpace to provide the best social networking casual games experience to its growing audience. Our white label casual gaming solution is allowing us to create a customized games platform that delivers a great experience to MySpace users," Tal Kerret, Co-Founder and Chairman of Oberon Media, said.

"We're looking forward to responding to users' needs and to involving the best game developers to create the greatest online entertainment experience. The opportunity to give MySpace users the chance to share the fun and socialize within this rapidly growing media segment is thrilling."

In comparison with MySpace, Facebook, the main rival, brought a lot of features to the website, becoming one of the most visited social networks on the Internet.

"Bringing entertainment in the form of fun, social, casual games will enhance our user experience," said Amit Kapur, VP of Business Development for MySpace. "Our goal is to provide our members with an easy way to play with their friends and give them with additional ways to interact."
