SkillGround.com Launches Arcade-Style Score-Based Games And New Teamplay Mode For Free Or Cash Prizes

Cash and Bragging Rights up for Grabs at the Click of a Button at SkillGround.com's Online PC Game Arena

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

TORONTO, June 7, 2007 - SkillGround.com's new release marks the evolution of online video gaming. The world's first online PC gaming arena where real video games can be played for free or for cash prizes, SkillGround.com now offers players score-based games and Teamplay. The only site that offers score-based video games, SkillGround automatically matches players with competitors at their skill level, making it fair, fun and easy to get started. With the click of a button gamers can get into the action and play for real cash prizes or just for fun.

Players of all levels can experience the thrill of victory with score-based games that are easy to learn and tough to master. Offered exclusively at SkillGround.com, this unique feature lets competitors quickly jump into games and have their scores entered into ongoing free or cash tournaments against competitors with similar skill. The skill-matching system makes score-based games fun and fair for veteran gamers and beginners alike.

"It's never been easier to play video games online for cash prizes. Our unique score-based game system allows players to log onto SkillGround.com anytime day or night and try to post a high score in a variety of different tournaments or events," said Jon Walsh, CEO of Groove Media Inc. "SkillGround has something for every gamer - whether it's solo play, going head to head or team-based play. At SkillGround.com, everyone can play and anyone can win."

SkillGround.com's Teamplay makes cooperative play incredibly easy. There is no need to establish a team in advance - simply show up and join a group, or bring your friends and take on the enemy together. Either way, the action is just a click away.

SkillGround currently offers a variety of retail-quality titles - available for free download - to play online, covering most of the major gaming genres, including the sci-fi- first person shooter, WarPath; tactical military shooter, Close Quarters Conflict, racing from L.A. Street Racing; and the martial arts fighting game, Kung Fu: Deadly Arts. A golf game will be released later this summer, and the autumn will see the first of several games based on hugely popular and successful third party titles.
